I have written a program which read all adresses in a 24C16 I2C EEPROM and sends the data to a PC via RS232 (8,N,1 1200 Baud). I have used the Windows Terminal program for receiving the data. But when I receive the data as a text file (ASCII) there is a probelm with the control characters CR, FF, LF etc. They are not read as data. Can I somehow receive the data as a binary file? I have tried to use the various protocols for this purpose, but it always ends out with a failure. What do I need to do in my Pic-code to support fx. the Xmodem or the Kermit protocol? I hope you are able to help me ! With kind regards GDK-SSJ - Steen Schelle Jensen Dept.: 1545 Internet e-mail: ssjensen@grundfos.com
