Serial Data for PIC16LF84A

[oneohthree]

I wrote some test code for a transmitter and receiver,

Transmitter:
Include "Modedefs.bas"
START:
serout Portb.3, t2400, ["A", 1010]
Pause 1
serout Portb.3, t2400, ["A", 1010]
Pause 1
GOTO START

Receiver:
Include "Modedefs.bas"
B0 var portb.1
serin portb.0, t2400,["A"], B0

I would like to read a the first bit in B0 how would I be able to do it? Do I need to store it somewhere temporarily?

I wrote some test code for a tx and rx,

Transmitter:
Include "Modedefs.bas"
START:
serout Portb.3, t2400, ["A", 1010] : Pause 1 : serout Portb.3, t2400, ["A", 1010] : Pause 1 : GOTO START

Receiver:
Include "Modedefs.bas"
B0 var portb.1 : serin portb.0, t2400,["A"], B0

I would like to read a the first bit in B0 how would I be able to do it? Do I need to store it somewhere temporarily?

You didn't read any of those RF module posts completely...did you?
'cause, for the most part, what you've got above won't work
Main problem, just like it says in all those posts, no preamble for the recevier's data slicer.
Oh, don't get me wrong, it might work. I'd bet money it won't.

What's the purpose of: serout Portb.3, t2400, ["A", 1010]
explain it to me so I can tell you where you logic is flawed...

How do I write code for the preamble for the receiver's data slicer? I was thinking of sending a start bit in front, so that serin can know when it should start reading data. I dont know if that is the correct way to do it though.

RE-READ THE SERIN SEROUT PROBLEM thread that you've been reading. It's all right there. I don't feel like retyping things that have already been done.

As far as sending the start bit in front so that serin can known when it should start reading data....
How do you think serial data transmission works? By sending the stop bit first? Not so much....
