Ok gents, I am making progress, I download the newer software from the sticky post.  Am I right to say that at this stage I can't use my usb key?  I got rid of all the errors I was getting, I am now stuck on the one program johnny RX_String_Test.SXB.  I get it to write in hyperterminal Please enter string (although it seems to get cut off "ter a string") when I type 3 letter and hit enter It either freezes up or returns nothing.  Not even the "you entered: " part.  My connection setting are as follows

Com 1 N 9600.

I get no writing when its set at T9600, so i changed it to n9600. I am connecting through serial cable no USB converter.  I use the 22k resistors for protection and also use with and get the same issue.  

The external resinator I am using is 20 MHZ

It appears that the maybe its looping without picking up the chars???

Serin tx n9600 ,char,1000,main????? would this be a better angle?


Also can someone better explain to me the serial section.  for example when I send data in hyperterminal I am sending the whole string at once to the sx chip or is it one char at a time.  How does it come into the stamp as an ascii char or the actuall letter.  thanks!
