Hi,

I wonder if it is possible to detect parity errors when using the software uart?
I changed the software uart example from BASCOM help to 7 bits and even parity (and port pins and crystal frequency).
Using the terminal programm Tera Term even and odd parity are both accepted and return the same result.

Best regards

Chris

Code:

$regfile = "m168def.dat"
$crystal = 7372800

$hwstack = 128
$swstack = 128
$framesize = 128


Dim B As Byte

Waitms 100


'Open a TRANSMIT channel for output

Open "comd.1:19200,7,e,1" For Output As #1

Print #1 , "serial output"



'Now open a RECEIVE channel for input

Open "comd.0:19200,7,e,1" For Input As #2

'Since there is no relation between the input and output pin

'there is NO ECHO while keys are typed



Print #1 , "Press any alpha numerical key"



'With INKEY() we can check if there is data available

'To use it with the software UART you must provide the channel

Do

   'Store in byte

   B = Inkey(#2)

   'When the value > 0 we got something

   If B > 0 Then

      Print #1 , Chr(b)                         'Print the character

   End If

Loop

Close #2                                         'Close the channels

Close #1



End

Hello Chris dk9uv
Are you trying to detect transmission errors?
If so can you use CRC which I have made code for already.

Hi Paul,

thanks for the quick reply.

The reason I am asking is that I want to implement the SDI-12 protocol which is used for some sensors. SDI-12 uses 7 bit and even parity.
CRC can optionally be included, see SDI-12 specification: http://www.sdi-12.org/current_specification/SDI-12_version-1_4-Jan-10-2019.pdf
and I have implemented that already.
I was just curious to know if I can detect parity errors as well.
So far I have never used parity, normally I take 8,N,1 settings for UART and use CRC.

With best regards

Chris
