Hi,
HSEROUT and SERTXD use the same pin (Leg7), so trying to use both in the same program is likely to give problems. However, using HSERIN and SERTXD should be possible; set bit3 (disable hserout) in the mode byte of HSERSETUP to give "normal i/o".
Alternatively, you may be able to "swap" the HSEROUT pin to Leg 3 by using the base PIC's APFCON (Alternate Pin Function CONtrol) Special Function Register. That might allow you to use both SERTXD and HSEROUT at the same time.
Cheers, Alan.
