Hi Maninder,
I am going to guess that you are running a Windows PC, from which you are trying to communicate with an 805x. If you are trying to program to communicate through a com port, you will need to search for, and read up on, using DCBs (Data Control Blocks). Now if this is a school assignment, good luck. If, on the other hand, you just want the easiest way to get your program talking to your 805x, I suggest abandoning the COM port in favor of the USB. If you interface through a USB port, you can use a USB to UART bridge chip, any of which will come with a full compliment of drivers and libraries that will make your programming as nearly as simple as the puts you're trying to use as is possible. Good luck, Joe |
