Hi John,
When the program starts up do the delays seem to be behaving correctly and giving you nice second delays?
Your config settings look ok to me.
Might be worth outputting a 0 followed by a short delay followed by outputting a 1 to the 4D reset pin to see if this helps things at all?

Ben,
Thanks I will give that a try. And yes all the delays are working properly. I put them in to make sure it does, just a visual check. Will try your advice tonight and let you know.
John

Ben, The reset you mentioned worked to a point. However what seems to be the problem is a timing issue. The pic seems to slow down when in the main loop. What happens is when the button is pressed on the 4d screen nothing happens unless you manage to get the press at the right time in the main loop on the descion if something is happening from the 4d object. And thats it. It wont read the message saying which object is changing. Even if I up the comms speed it actually works worse. 9600 seems to be the best at it limit functionality. It will be something simple but I just can't see it. Maybe looking to deep. thoughts?
Cheers
