Interrupt problems!

[mister_e]

Pause 1 is still fair but i would use a loop of PAUSEUS 10 OR use an internal Timer and a loop... but it's just me

LCDOUT could slow down a little bit, it will depend how much data you send. But it certainely don't need seconds to finish. Personnally i use internal, external eeprom to store the texts string, so i send i character at the time. Still faster and may avoid some interrupt latency.

OR you may decide to use a variant of 'Embedded string in your codespace'

There's some days like that where asm interrupt or instants interrupts are handy.

Without your whole code it's hard to spot the problem(s)
