Hello Guys

Quick question, how does one transmit a CTRL-Z keystroke via the UART? 
sending ^Z doesnt help, is there a hex code or someother way of getting 
this done?

Thanks
Jay

Thanks Paul, just what I was looking for :-)

ASCII control-Z is 0x1A.  Thus:

U0TXBUF = 0x1A;

I guess you're sending HayesAT to a modem (non binary data), then
the 
"nonprinting" 0xa1 could work.

also used for EOF or suspend a prog in a (unix)shell.

No idea in other cases.
