Serout (format # data)

converts a 16-bit number into a counted string for transmission by Serout.

The PBASIC version of Serout has a tremendously convenient feature; the ability to treat data for transmission as either bytes or numbers. The value 65, if sent as a byte, would appear as the letter "A" on the receiving end. If sent as a number, "65" shows up at the receiver. This routine, called BIN_ASC for binary-to-ASCII, converts a pair of bytes (interpreted as a 16-bit number) into text. For example, if the bytes both contain 0FFh, BIN_ASC creates a text string containing "65535" ready for transmission by Serout.

The routine suppresses leading zeros, just as the PBASIC version does. So the number 17 is output as "17" and not "00017".

BIN_ASC goes one step beyond the conversion built into the PBASIC's Serout by allowing you to specify a fixed decimal point in positions 0 through 4 of the text string. Here are examples of the output:

Fixed Point at:	Value = 1	Value = 65535
	0	.00001	.65535
	1	.0001	6.5535
	2	.001	65.535
	3	.01	655.35
	4	.1	6553.5
	5	1	65535

By setting the fixed point to a value of 5 or greater, you can eliminate it entirely. BIN_ASC can also prepare data for other types of ASCII output devices, such as LCDs or parallel printers. Just write the driver to expect a Serout-style counted string, as described in the previous Serout entry.

The routine uses a short table called decade. Remember that tables and subroutines must be located in the first 256 words of a 512-word program memory page.

Demonstrating BIN_ASC.

To see BIN_ASC in operation, run it on the PSIM simulator. When the program finishes executing, look at the locations 18h through 1Fh. BIN_ASC will have built a counted string of ASCII characters representing the input value (in decimal) with an inserted decimal point. In the case of the demo, the string will be "655.35" which will display as bytes 36h, 35h, 35h, 2Eh, 33h, and 35h. The string count (6) will appear in location 1Fh.

For a live demonstration, connect the circuit below to an erasable PIC or PIC emulator, such as the Parallax downloader. Assemble SEROUT_#.SRC from the accompanying disk and program the PIC or downloader with the assembled program. Make sure to use a 4-MHz clock on the PIC or downloader. Load a terminal program on the PC connected to the PIC and set it for 2400 baud, no parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit (N81). When you apply power to the PIC or reset the downloader, the string "655.35" will appear on the PC s creen.
