No, it is all yours, but once your data spans multiple packets you need to work out where you are in the byte stream. This can be done simply by timing, if there is a longer pause between the start and end packets than the inter-byte gap, or some protocols have byte patterns that can not exist in the data as frame markers. > Does the mesa_uart.comp serve as an example only or is it a > loadable component. If you have uarts in your firmware it should work. I have used a very similar component to send data from an Arduino to a Mesa card. -- atp "A motorcycle is a bicycle with a pandemonium attachment and is designed for the especial use of mechanical geniuses, daredevils and lunatics." — George Fitch, Atlanta Constitution Newspaper, 1916 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Emc-developers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers
