Hello,
  I have searched the forum many times and have seen example code to serout a variable or pin state.  I tried using the programs john has provided and hitt consulting.  It always send the hex format (Or not the actual number) or variable I try to send.  For example

 

DEVICE SX28, OSCHS3, TURBO, STACKX, OPTIONX
FREQ 50_000_000

InPin VAR RB.0 ' Change this to whatever pin you want to monitor
SOutPin VAR RB.1 ' Change this to whatever pin you want serial output from

Temp VAR BYTE

PROGRAM Start

Start:
  INPUT InPin 



Again:
  Temp=InPin
  SEROUT SOutPin, N115200, Temp
GOTO Again

 

This should send a either a 1 or a 0 out.  However I get a smiley face or some other character.  I have changed the baud rate even to 2400 it does the same.  It wont send any characters unless I switch to N2400 instead or T2400.  The hardware connection I have it a serial plug with the serout pin connected to it and hyperterminial connected.  It is also grounded to the ground.  The pin I am using on the serial cable in number 2 for the connection and number 5 for the ground.  I can send one letter at a time using this format:

 

Serout Ra.0, N2400, "A"

 

But I need to send the pin state and a variable seperatly 

 

Serout Ra.0, N2400, Variable

 

I am using an external osc like you said and I tried all different freq and resinators.  Can you please help I am semi new to this chip.    

 

In Short It must always be in "" for numbers to be sent or words.  Which I need to send variable data.  

 

Thanks again!

Tony
