The SPI (synchronous peripheral interface) does not do normal RS-232
(aka "asynchronous serial") in hardware.  you must write an assembly
language driver to do the timing.

at some point in january i plan to release a 1200 baud output driver.
if someone beats me to it that is fine.

In your message you said:
I can control the output on the SPI header (in accordance with the
instructions from the FAQ), but I can't figure out how to get the timing
right to send a 2400 or 9600 baud signal.  Can anyone help me? Is there any
code out there that can do this for me? I'm trying to control Scott
Edward's Mini SSC, which takes a three byte instruction at either 2400 or
9600 baud.  Thanks! -md

Perhaps I have just overlooked this in the documentation for the HB and IC. Is there an easy way to control the chip selects Y*? Are they memory mapped or harder to get to than that? Thanks for the info: patrick (28 years ago, 21-Dec-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
