Having a pic recieve and output serial commands

[cruzn27]

I'm using a 16f88 dip pic and am trying to get it to receive a serial input and give out a serial output. I'm programming this on PicBasic. If you guys could help me with a sample code or any information that would be great. thanks

While there are some forum members here who may also use “straight” PIC chips, the vast majority are orientated to the use of the PICAXE chips by Revolution Education and predominantly using the PICAXE derivative of BASIC for programming.

You may do better in receiving a response if you were to post on say

the Microchip forum:

Or possibly the PICBASIC forum:

cruzn27: As time is (usually) money,consider just grabbing a PIC16F88 based PICAXE-18X & running PICAXE commands. Naturally your overall circuit operation may be an issue, but with the 18X a mere ~US$10 it'll certainly beat the coffee & amber fluid needed for hours of raw PIC programming.

FWIW - many Forum regulars got started in just this way!
