| rs232 communication from 16f84a [SOLVED] |

Hi fellas!
I have this simple code: I want to transmit letter 'A' via software UART.
| Code: | #include <16F84A.h>
#FUSES hs,nowdt,noprotect
#use delay (clock = 4000000)
#use rs232(baud=300,xmit=PIN_B0, rcv=PIN_B1,invert, parity=n, bits = 8, force_sw)
void main() {
set_tris_b(0x0);
while(1){
delay_ms(1000);
putc('A');
}
} |
I delay a second to not get confused about when data is sent. I use invert because max232 needs too many caps and gets too messy on my breadboard. pic and PC (rs232 pin 5) grounds are connected. the receive pin is connected to pin 2 of the rs232 connector to PC and PortB pin 0 on PIC.
I use RS-232 Monitor version 1.2 to monitor incoming. On this software I set baud to be 600, with no parity, 8 bit reception, 1 stop bit, and no other feature turned on.
I get signal, with intervals of close to 1 secs as expected. However I get trash: a black box with a p.
Pleas help!! Screenshot is attached.
Maybe I should use some other software to monitor incoming signals?
Thanks much you all!!!

Oh my, I got it, baud on monitor was 600 while pic was set to operate at 300. My mistake. Lesson to all including me: check baud rate!!

No worries... Change the original Subject line to include "SOLVED" so others may learn from what you did.
