Uart lpc1114 help

Hello!

I have created a GUI that can send data to any available serial port that it detects. Currently my GUI detects my lpc1114 however I do not fully understand what format I have to send data in to trigger my lpc1114 to respond. On the Lpc1114 itself I have a set of configs that I programmed and they work fine but I don't understand how to send the data via my GUI to trigger the lpc1114 to respond. Here's the code for the UART:

/* configure PINs GPIO1.6, GPIO1.7 for UART */ LPC_SYSCON->SYSAHBCLKCTRL |= ((1UL << 6) | /* enable clock for GPIO */ (1UL << 16) ); /* enable clock for IOCON */

LPC_IOCON->PIO1_6 = (1UL << 0); /* P1.6 is RxD */ LPC_IOCON->PIO1_7 = (1UL << 0); /* P1.7 is TxD */

/* configure UART0 */ LPC_SYSCON->SYSAHBCLKCTRL |= (1UL << 12); /* Enable clock to UART */ LPC_SYSCON->UARTCLKDIV = (4UL << 0); /* UART clock = CCLK / 4 */

LPC_UART->LCR = 0x83; /* 8 bits, no Parity, 1 Stop bit */ LPC_UART->DLL = 4; /* 115200 Baud Rate @ 12.0 MHZ PCLK */ LPC_UART->FDR = 0x85; /* FR 1.627, DIVADDVAL 5, MULVAL 8 */ LPC_UART->DLM = 0; /* High divisor latch = 0 */ LPC_UART->LCR = 0x03; /* DLAB = 0 */

LPC_UART->FCR |= (1UL << 0); /* Enable the UART Fifos */ LPC_UART->IER |= (1UL << 0); /* Enable the Receive Data interrupt */

NVIC_EnableIRQ(UART_IRQn);
