DT_INT + 16F72 - what am I missing?

[Ioannis]

What is your hardware? I mean how is the controller connected to the PC?

How are you sending the serial data stream?

I have an RF receiver attached to the unit. I even tried to remove the receiver and connect both PICs hard wired. Still no response.
By the way, just to confirm that for the 16F72 do I need to connect 100nF anywhere else as well, I have one already connected to pin 19/20. Vss is supplied to pin 19 & 8, Vdd goes to pin20 only.

Have you tried disabling the Timer1 interrupt to see if it responds to serial data?

Yes I did, still no luck.

If you're using v2.6 you may want to switch to SERIN2 or DEBUGIN. SERIN has known timing issues: http://melabs.com/support/pbpissues.htm

I have got V2.5. Can I still try using DEBUG?

[Bruce]

Yes. DEBUGIN should work fine. I would disable interrupts too. At least until you can get your serial input working.

With that statement, get0 is a qualifier.
I think you wanted that to be the variable that receives the data.
So it should be outside of the square brackets.
