:) And here is the checkOK function as well... I'm in a rush. Let me 
know, if you need more assistance. It's probably better I send you the 
whole .py :)


def checkOK(buffer):
    sum = 0
    for c in buffer[1:]:
        if (c == "*"):
            break
        sum = sum ^ ord(c)
    try:
        cs = buffer.split("*")
        packet_sum = "0x"+cs[1].lower().rstrip()
        return packet_sum == hex(sum)
    except:
        return False
