Hi all,

does anyone have a code example for a dsPIC33 UART using flow
control ?

I'm trying to set up comms between the PIC and a Vinculum Vdrive2
using Tx/Rx/RTS/CTS but getting getting inconclusive results. Section
17 of the dsPIC datasheet

http://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/DeviceDoc/70188D.pdf

mentions what RTS and CTS do but doesn't explain all that much,
nor include them in timing diagrams, which would have been helpful.
I've looked around Microchip's site, no obvious AN

Below are various settings. After the initialisation, executing

           mov     #0x000d,w0
           mov     w0,U1TXREG

confirms timing with 104us bit times on Tx. The Vdrive2 does put
out data on power-up (although I've yet to find the short sequences
of characters in its manual so they're possibly random), also 104us
bit times, seen on Rx. There's no acivity on either RTS or CTS. What
I expected to see was RTS low before and after sending the Carriage
Return, and high during the transmission. CR is a 'flashdrive present ?'
query to the Vdrive2 that should elicit a response from it

RTS and CTS have 16k pullups

Attached is what is seen after /mclr goes high. A flurry of so-far
unidentified data from the Vdrive2, then my pause and two CRs
sent, 10ms apart. Note that RTS does change state 5ms after the
reset. This is well after the PIC's registers have been configured
and in the middle of a simple 10ms delay that involves no pins

Any help would be much appreciated. At this stage I'm in a "Jim
Hacker" situation - don't know what I don't know ;-)) !!

TIA

Joe
