Hi Chris,

thanks for your replay. in my case i only want to send data instead of asci=
i in hex. number 2. if I just use=A0

sprintf(output, "%x", variable);=A0


uart4 doesn't see it

=A0putcUART4(output[i])=A0

works but then I need to convert data ascii to hex



this is what use instead of sprintf.

// ************************************************************************=
*****
// void UARTTxBuffer(char *buffer, UINT32 size)
// ************************************************************************=
*****
void Send_String_to_U4(const char *buffer, UINT32 size)
{
=A0 =A0 while(size)
=A0 =A0 {
=A0 =A0 =A0 =A0while (U4STAbits.UTXBF =3D=3D 1); //wait until ready "RS232"
=A0 // =A0 =A0 =A0U4TXREG =3D *buffer;
=A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 putcUART4(*buffer);
=A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 buffer++;
=A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 size--;
=A0 =A0 }

}

in pic32 there is a command starts with _32 to mention witch uart to send d=
ata to before sprintf() I forgot the name.
how can i cast using putcUART4()

thanks

I don't know pic24, but in general two ways to do what you're trying to do
in c.

1) Use fprintf - usage: fprint(file, format, parameters...)
e.g. fprintf(uart4, "%x", variable);
- though I don't know if you can use uart4 directly in that way, or if
there is a way to pointfprintf at uart4.

2) Use sprintf - usage: sprintf(char*, format, parameters...)
e.g. char output[20]; sprintf(output, "%x", variable); for(i=3D0;
i<strlen(output); i++) { putcUART4(output[i]) }
- which should work provided putcUART4 works as I expect.
