Reading large data via RS232

[BigWumpus]

If you want to receive 2k Data inside two start-stop-signs, you can't use one PBP-command, you have to write a programm !

like this:
Repeat
Read 1 character
Until this is the start-character

ende=0

repeat
Read 1 character
if "this is the end"? then
ende=1
else
store the character
endif
until ende=1

And don't forget to use the hardware-UART !

I have an USART MAX232. It´s on my dev. board included.
I know how you mean to realize that, but i have to trigger the RX Channel with the incoming data from the computer? I use 9600Baud = 960 Bytes included start & stopbit.
I think without serin commands can it be difficult to catch the bytes for the right time, maybe the input will shift for many bits!

No !
The MAX232 isn't a USART. The USART is a part of the PIC. Just look, if the Rx- and Tx-Pins are propperly used.

No,
after activating the USART, it will receive any character.

Yes,
every second !

Without using HSERIN it will be impossible !
You have 1/960 seconds to store a character.
Writing to a EEPROM needs 10ms (10 times more) to complete the write-cycle.

You have to store the data in RAM.

If you are good - you can write 1 page (maybe 128 Bytes) to a serial eeprom and start the write-cycle and maybe 15 characters later you can start to submit the next page, so you must only buffer 15-30 characters.

Using hardware-USART with interrupts will be much better.

I prefer to use FRAM´s. Then there will no troubles about writing to eeprom.
