The problem is that I am already using the console port to communicate to
a pc.  What I would like is to have one or more devices communicate back
to the handyboard then the handyboard communicate to the pc.

On the home page there is link to "9600 baud serial output driver" what I
am looking for is a "9600 baud serial input driver"

Thanks,

see the FAQ re: serial for more.

In your message you said:
I am working on a project that requires serial output devices, I would
like to connect these to the digital inputs.  Is there anyone that has
some routines (preferably ic funtions) that I could have that do this.

Is there a way to use the SPI port to do this easily.
Take it easy I'm a beginner.

Thanks in advance,
