Inversion for software RS232

Post by Brian Walsh »

Can we have a check box in the Ext Functions window to invert the output of the software uart? This would allow its use without level changing hardware.

Also can the software uart be changed to allow it to compile with only the Rx or Tx connected to a pin? Currently both need to be connected which often wastes a pin. Debug for instance.

Hello,

This would be very easy to implement using the code customisation feature of Flowcode.

Regarding your extra pin this could also be disabled via the custom code feature so that the tris and port registers are uneffected by the second unwanted RS232 pin.

I will add your comments to the wish list.
