    It sounds good, but there are commands in the LCD Initialization sequence. So without the proper COMANNDUS the Init fails. Black box time again.
    I'd love to just say remove the LCD part, but that won't help since you can't see the results anymore.
    Still pondering.

    I figured that...simple, easy...but...doesn't hurt to try and decrease the value until the LCD fails completely and then bump it up a bit.
    I'm sure that stock value of 1500 will be able to be dropped by quite a bit. And even if a person can only get it down to 500, that's still 1ms saved.

    Hey Guys,

    Ok, I got rid of the LCD commands. I restructured the code such that it packs received data into memory locations and then towards the bottom of the code it scales the data to represent a duty cycle which is sent out to 3 I/O pins. I was able to receive via UART reliably, So basically I am able to equate the pulse widths to the data values. Also, manchester decoder is implemented in the code.


    Thanks for the help!!!
