I am brand new to SX development - I have been using BS2's for quite some time.

 

I have a question that may be pretty basic, but it is driving me crazy.

 

I am using SX/B only (no in line assembly) and I am trying to run through a series of baud rates in the SERIN command using a program line like this:    


[i]SERIN RA.0, Baud, tmpB1[/i]


I have defined a number of constants like this:


[i]Baud1            CON     "T3600"
Baud2            CON     "OT3600"
Baud3            CON     "N3600"
Baud4            CON     "ON3600"[/i]


 

So, I am trying to assign the values in the Baud1 through Baud4 to the Baud variable like this:


[i]Baud = Baud1[/i]

[i][/i] 


And I am getting a compile error.

Would someone please help a new guy out and tell me how to do this with SX/B?  I have been trying to use the SX/B help file but I can't figure it out.  There are references to something called a "z-string", but I don't know what this is and I can't find a clear definition anywhere.  I have also been reading about the "READ" command that works with the "DATA" command, but I don't know if that is an appropriate set of commands to use, or not.

Any help or tips would be appreciated.

Thanks

Mike
