Serin serout problem

[lerameur]

about the LCD_RWREG, I stuck my lcd pin to ground, so it should always be write function.

I still get the same problem , The lcdout do not display the inpuT from serin. tHE LCD shows on the second line : 'Waiting...'
It seems to me that the as soon as it sees the serin command it skips all the lcdout afterward, and loops again.

LCD_RWBIT....ok, understood. I'd define it anyways to an unused pin just to keep PBP from thinking otherwise.

Screwed up a bit overall. You can't send words thru a bytewide serial port!

Try this instead:


'TRANSMIT
INCLUDE "modedefs.bas"
DEFINE OSC 20 'use external 20mhz crystal
CMCON = 7 : ANSEL = 0 : ADCON1 = 7
DEFINE LCD_DREG PORTA ' Set LCD Data port
DEFINE LCD_DBIT 0 ' Set starting Data bit (0 or 4) if 4-bit bus
DEFINE LCD_RSREG PORTB ' Set LCD Register Select port
DEFINE LCD_RSBIT 1 ' Set LCD Register Select bit
DEFINE LCD_EREG PORTB ' Set LCD Enable port
DEFINE LCD_EBIT 0 ' Set LCD Enable bit
DEFINE LCD_BITS 4 ' Set LCD bus size (4 or 8 bits)
DEFINE LCD_LINES 2 ' Set number of lines on LCD

trisb.2 = 0 : trisb.3 = 1 : dq var portb.4 : temp var word : tempf var word
pause 2500

loop:
lcdout $fe , $c0 , "Getting..."
owout DQ , 1 , [ $cc ] : owout DQ , 0 , [ $44 ] : Pause 500
owout DQ , 1 , [ $cc ] : owout DQ , 0 , [ $be ]
owin DQ , 0 , [ temp.LOWBYTE , temp.HIGHBYTE , skip 6 ]

The same thing is happeneing as before,
the LCD is just showing 'Waiting ... ' on the receiving unit
And I can see on the scope a signal coming in on portB3

Anything showing up on the first line? Something like:
Tc=100C,Tf=212 or anything similar?

[lerameur]

the first line of the receiving unit is blank
the second: waiting ....

What does the transmitter lcd display?

TC=46c, Tf=114f
