<>This may sound simplistic but don't stream data before opening the serial
port... problem solved.
Thanks for responding Dave, however I won't have control over the data flow
once this unit is in the field. I seem to have fixed this by moving my
SerReceiveFlush(...) like shown below:
/**********************************************************/
error = SysLibFind("Serial Library", &gSerialReference);
if (error)
{
FrmAlert(OpenPortAlert);
}
SerReceiveFlush(gSerialReference, SysTicksPerSecond()); //**works ok
now**//
error = SerOpen(gSerialReference, PORT, BAUD);
SerSetReceiveBuffer (gSerialReference, gSerialBuff, SER_BUFFER_MAX);
/**********************************************************/
But I was wondering if this is a real fix, meaning does the port have to be
open to be cleared?
