Looking at the ObjectAda web site, it appears ObjectAda is available for Windows, Unix, Real-Time/Embedded, Real-Time/Raven, Real-Time/Tornado, Real-Time/LinxOS. Which one of these are you using? It is unlikely you will have to do low level programming of the serial chip. It is more likely that you just need to figure out how to call the OS/Kernel routines to do the work for you. Which OS? If it happens to be Windows NT/W2k, I have a nice thick binding I can send. Steve (The Duck) > Can anyone give me any pointer to example code or documentation? > > Thanks > > Goochie > >
