rs232 conflicts
PostPosted: Tue Apr 15, 2008 2:37 pm     Reply with quote

i have the following setting:

Code:

#use rs232(baud=4800, bits=8, parity=N, stop=1, xmit=PIN_C6, rcv=PIN_C7, stream=GSM, ERRORS)



but when i use the follow functions:

Code:

void my_get_string(void) {

  char c;
  int i=4;
  int count=0;
  unsigned char temp[68]="$GPR";

output_low(PIN_B7);
delay_ms(500);
start:

c = getc();
if(c == '$')
{
   output_high(PIN_B7);
   output_low(PIN_B7);
   c = getc();
      if(c == 'G'){
        //  output_low(PIN_B7);
          output_high(PIN_B7);
          //output_low(PIN_B7);
          c = getc();
             if (c == 'P'){
                  c = getc();
                  if (c == 'R'){
                     output_high(PIN_B7);
                           while(count < 55){
                              temp[i]= getc();
                              i++;
                              count++;
                              }

        goto ending;
/*
         back:
         output_high(PIN_B7);
         goto back;*/
             }
        }
   }
}


goto start;

ending:
temp[i] = 0;
cursor_position(0x81);
out_lcd_string(temp);
delay_ms(1500);

}


and

Code:
void gsm_call(void)
{

char c;

output_low(PIN_B5);
delay_ms(800);
output_low(PIN_C4);
output_high(PIN_C5);
delay_ms(500);

fprintf(GSM, "AT+CMGF=1\r\n");
delay_ms(2050);
fprintf(GSM,"AT+CMGS=\"%s\"\r\n",num);
delay_ms(2000);
fprintf(GSM, "check\r\n");
fputc(0x1A,GSM);
delay_ms(3000);
}


the my_get_string function stops working but the gsm_call continues to work correctly.

however, when i comment stream=GSM out of the configuration, the my_get_string works.

Is there a reason that this is happening?

RS232 is asynchronous. While you are fprinting chars you must must must be able to receive chars at that exact and very instant. That means while you are printing even a single bit of a char you must be able to receive a char. With out flow control to synchronize your input your output will have great potential to corrupt your input.
Search this forum and look at circular buffers and the #intRDA and isr.
