 SOME CUSTOM HARDWARE , IT RETURNS THE CHARACTER ">" WHEN NOT BUSY AND ABLE
TO RECEIVE

> What kind of flow control/handshaking does it need? ------NONE , OTHER
THAN WAITING FOR ">" BEFORE SENDING AGAIN

TRY

BITS , 1 STOP , NO PARITY

IF WAITING FOR ">" WORKS

Somehow it does not always wait for ">" before sending if i put into a loop.
if i do it manually and wait for ">" to be displayed on screen it works fine
?
