This example receives a character via the RS232 component and outputs it to the LCD, an injector has been added to allow you to type data into the console.
{{Fcfile|RS232_Example2.fcfx|Human Interface Injector Example}}
The Console window has tabs for the human interface data injector allowing you to type in data that will be received by the component.

Detailed description

No detailed description exists yet for this component

Examples

This example receives a character via the RS232 component and outputs it to the LCD, an injector has been added to allow you to type data into the console. Human Interface Injector Example The Console window has tabs for the human interface data injector allowing you to type in data that will be received by the component.


Again the RS232 console tabs reflect the data as it is sent and received.


LCD showing received data.
