LM5 and RS-232 problem

[Vaggelis]

I have established successfully a connection with a security alarm but I can’t read the information that it sends as a whole word but in pieces.
Sometimes one by one or two letters and rarely I have the whole word. The command for <<read>> which I use is
respond = port:read(3,0)
log(respond)
I have also used other combinations without any result too. Do you have any idea what is wrong. 
Thanks in advance.

Hi
Probably you have to separate the input somehow, check in manual. Look on this

Hi,

You probably need the function readline, see this topic https://forum.logicmachine.net/showthrea...78#pid1978
