MsComm Control

Hi out there..
I have encounter some problem when dealing with MsComm Control.

Let say, i want to sent out &H11 (hex), which is 00010001 binary, how am i going to send that outwards through serial port? :(

I am using 8LEDs to test the out coming bytes. If the circuit encounter 00010001, it will light up accordingly.

The problem is, if i declare the hex data to the MsComm, there will be an error. So how am i going to declare the hex data and make sure that the receive bytes are correct?

Please help. :cry:
 

Re: MsComm Control

Try using the Chr() function,

ex.
I want to send 0x11 = d 17:
I write "MsComm1.Output = Chr(17)"

If it works you can easily create a function that converts hex to dec.

bye wn.
