Changing TX input area mode

2007-07-18 Thread Martin Saxon

I am a little dismayed to find that the TX doesn't have the visible internal file system volume(though of course it has the invisible one), or the very useful 'Files' and 'Drive Mode' applications that the T5 had. Does anyone know of any sensible alternatives for these? My client is really keen

To start with, maybe if (pal = 0) should be if (pal == 0) and if (hAd = 0) should be if (hAd == 0) Which would certainly help your error detection, if nothing else? Martin. -- "Frank Ableson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] I am send

Hi everyone. I'm using the serial port on a T5 to talk to a data capture device, but it appears that if I try to send a data packet at the same time that data is arriving on the receive line, some of the received data gets dropped. I know that all of the data that should be received is getting
