Hi,
I am currently working with a unit that transmits serial data in the Bisync format, half duplex, without clock pulses, at 9600bd.
(It is an obsolete Map generator for an ATC radar display.)
I have a need to decipher the data, and don't have access to a costly data monitor.
The data always starts with three 32Hex characters (SYN), followed by the message, all in a continuous bit stream.
The SYN characters are used to synchronise/identify bytes.
Would it be possible to use a PIC to interpret this data?
If so, any suggestions on how it would work?
Obviously, as it is not RS232 (start/stop pulses) that type of data reading cannot be used.
