Serout And Serin Via Rf Link

[kenpo]

SEROUT2 1,396,[dec din]
SERIN2 0,396, [dec din]

sends at 2400

works fine for me.

your rf chips prob won't need a max232 so it should hopefully be easy, but I've never first hand used an rf transmitter

First, you need to decide what transmitter and receiver you will use. AM? FM? If AM, superheterodyne or superregenerative receiver? What range is required? Outdoors? Indoors? What's the biggest number you will send? What's the biggest number you are willing to spend on hardware?

Second, the RF receiver power use will likely dwarf the 12F629 power use so your sleep idea is probably not worth pursuing unless you also plan to power down the receiver while the PIC sleeps. How frequent are the transmissions?

I think SerOut/SerIn overly complicates this type of communication. Check this recent thread for ideas.

I would add one more thing to what's been said. Whatever protocol you use for the communications, test it through wires first. Only after you have everything working through wires, you should add the wireless element.

Hi all
Lot of good stuff in these posts. I already have ideas about how to accomplish this.
Thanks again
