I need some help with serial comms on my ZX1280 dev board please.

This works just fine. I have verified the incoming data is correct.
call DefineCom(2, 0, 0, &H08)
call OpenQueue(LNIn, SizeOf(LNIn))
call OpenQueue(LNOut, SizeOf(LNOut))
Call OpenCom(2, 16457, LNIn, LNOut)

This does not work. The incoming data makes no sense - missing bytes and bad
values.
I'm assuming I can use Port E for serial communication.
call DefineCom(3, e.6, e.7, &H08)
call OpenQueue(LNIn, SizeOf(LNIn))
call OpenQueue(LNOut, SizeOf(LNOut))
Call OpenCom(3, 16457, LNIn, LNOut)

I'm sure I'm missing the something, but I don't know what I don't know....

Thanks, John Burrow

The specified baud rate is not supported on the software UART channels (3-6). The supported rates are 300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600 and 19,200 baud.

I see that the documentation needs to be more clear on this point.

Thank you Don. I appreciate your speedy responses.
