Pausing

[lerameur]

HI,

I am coming with a problem with pausing after the sending a message using serout,
The pause works great on its own, but when the program increases in size, it also increase in pause that I use somewhere else. I need a pause of 1 ms for the serout, but I am putting pause 10 on my lcdout. Now because of the LCD pause, I am sending my signal too far apart. How do I go around this problem

I am starting a new thread because i think this is somewhat different then my other topic, which at the end was getting close to this thread.

Use 10 serout commands at once, so you get 10 ms pause for your LCD while you still have your serout working with 1ms.

ok, it is better,
but once I finish the ten serout, then I still have a gap. I guess the receiver does not care that much.

Usually, i send everything in a single package, AND i receive everything in a single package. At the end i check the checksum and see if there's any error.

There's no special need for a pause between bytes. In RF it may just become a nightmare. Manchester encoding/decoding is handy if you send/receive long packet.
