Hi all, I have written a program in VC++ to write a char array of 13 bytes on COM port using 9600-N-8-1 parameters. when i send this to my target device it responds, but same program when i send through 89S51 my device does not respond.To set 9600-N-8-1 i have written 0xFD value. Can anyone no the reason for such strange behaviour. Please let me know.... rutu.
"You may be close with the unsigned/signed issue as 'c' promotes chars to ints in some instances." The problem is that Keil 'C' does NOT promote chars to ints in this situation. printf() is receiving a char but expecting an int. You have to use the correct format specification for a char. "Therefore since it converted your 0xbf to 0xffbf try declaring your array as unsigned char." How could that possibly help? "I'm not expert with Keil, but maybe it's default char is signed char, in other compilers the default can be unsigned char." What difference could that possibly make?
