USB Serial
Thankyou sir for replying, I was getting lonely here. USB PIC good , but can only learn one thing at a time and VB.net might take me 50-100 years to learn. Also my interface program works with usb or straight serial, and any PIC's with HW serial will only take 2 pins to do much work and programming is pretty easy ?
Your opinion on my PIC stuff ?
1) set up an array of 100, more or less to hold mem on pic
2) small asm for RCV interrupt
-check for start char say "~"
-take all next chars (100 max) or up to end char say ";", one at a time
-put them into array reserved locations
-turn off int, set some flag to inform Basic to do stuff on data
3) Basic rummages through array for instructions and data, clears mem and resets flag and interrupts
Wasn't that hard to set that stuff up.
I built the interface to work with that layout. I used the microsoft VB.Net click-once to deploy the program which can be deleted with the remove programs in windows.
Since I don't have a web now, I just e-mail the program now as requested.
I 'try' to make stuff straight forward, easy to understand so if you use the interface, you could tell me if I am nuts!
Adding one more jpg of Info Page.
