Hello All,

I am having trouble with the UART of an 16F877.

I am using a piece of software which simulates the PIC extremely
well and does simulate the UART (Proteous). Every time I initialise
the UART the Rx State changes to "Start Bit" straight away
despite the input being configured as an input and its being driven
high.

The UART goes to start bit as soon as the instruction:

bsf  rcsta, cren

is executed.  Because the UART thinks it has recived a start bit, it
gets a framing error which is impossible to clear for some reason.
Mabe its because the UART status goes immediatly to start bit
again after recieveing anything ????

Thanks for any help in advance
