how does girder decodes serial signals

[mars-venus]

Hello everybody....

The serial signals I sent does not tally with the codes display on screen
can anyone tell me how does girder receive input from serial ports..
is there a specific delay that must be followed, or the codes can be sent one after another?

Girder, by itself, does not receive serial signals from the port. A plugin receives the signals and passes them, as events, to Girder.

Which plugin are you using to receive the serial signals?

Is Girder expecting any termination codes?

The UIR and IRMan have a specific protocol that they follow. Se the UIR.ZIP file in this (http://www.girder.nl/developer.php?Link=269) file. Look at the ircom.cpp file. It contains the protocol.

The above is a Girder 3.0/3.1 plugin but focus on the COM part as that is the interface you need to understand.

Good luck. :)

Hi I study through the codes but it din give me any clues what is the terminating sequence or the protocol...
Apologies if the questions are too simple as this is the first time I am writing the software for IR using assembly

Thank you very much for your help :)
