Hello, I try to connect to two pics with two wires (Ground and Data). I'm sending ASCII codes and the receiver has to diplay the text on a LCD. It is NOT working. The receiver waits for the startbit (5V) and the sender is sending all the bits, but the pic16f818 is not passing the code back btfss Portb,dataIn goto back. I have measured with my scope the signal on pin 10 (portB - 4) and that is okay. Is there some special on connecting two pics which I forget?? ; pic12f675/sender ; GPIO1 = output dataOut pin 6 #define dataOut gpio,1 ; code: bcf dataOut call delaybit ; delay 2 bits / 2millisec call delaybit ; bsf dataOut ; Startbit high call delaybit ; bcf dataOut ; bit low ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ; pic16F818/receiver ; B4 - DataIn input dataIn equ 4 back btfss Portb,dataIn ; read start bit goto back met vriendelijke groeten, Chris Burger Aalden (Dr)/NL +++++++++++++++ ac.burger@hccnet.nl +++++++++++++++ -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
