Hey Daniel,

If you really want to learn what you missed in your proposition, try to
understand the following dirty&simple adaptation from your code.

...
if(U2LSR & 0x01)
{
uart_data = getchar2();
if(uart_data==0x0D) //or whatever end of line your system sends
{
LCDLife[charpos] = 0; //NULL termination for the string
charpos = 0; //charpos should be static to your function

//LCDLife array is now complete
//Do what you need to do with the information collected
...
}
else
{
LCDLife[charpos] = uart_data;
charpos = charpos + 1; //update the position on the array for the next
character
}
}
...

Hello forum!

I'm facing a difficulties in configuring UART[2] receive on my LPC2368 board
from futurlec.com.
I've succeeded in writing character (transmit) to UART[2] by adapting from
the sample code given,
but I'm kinda confused with the sample code given to get character from
UART[2]. Here's the sample code I'll be adapting from:

if(U2LSR & 0x01)
{
uart_data = getchar2();
if(uart_data==0x0D)
{
sprintf(uart2_buf,"ET-JR ARM7 LPC2368 : UART[2]\n\r");
print_uart2();
}
putchar2(uart_data);
}

Since I'm gonna use the character received by UART[2] to deliver the
feedback from LCD projector (such as lamp hour),
I need more than an 0x0D (enter button). I need to get like "65h43m21s" kind
of data. Here's what I've done by adapting from the code above

if(U2LSR & 0x01)
{
uart_data = getchar2();
sprintf(LCDlife,"%c",uart_data);
}

Did I miss something on my program? Thanks in advance for your help!

Regards,
Daniel
