Help I'm using PIC's to control various pieces of equipment in a remote location, using a couple of dial-up V34 modems. I'm using 38400 baud, odd parity, 1 stop bit (one of the bits of gear needs this particular format and it's easier to keep it all the same) It's burst data with a low duty cycle, so the modem should be able to cope ... Problem is that the receive modem isn't passing any ascii characters with an odd number of 1's (eg C, E, F etc) but passes ones with an even number (A,B,D, G etc).. I seem to have a parity problem of some kind - I thought I might have the parity gen section (from the embedded control handbook) about face, but it does it even with a pc substituted for the controller box. Is there something I'm missing? Do I have to disable V42bis or anything like that?? -- Jim
