Hopefully a bug will be removed soon which keeps the the 12f675, 12f683 type devices from currently working.  Using a terminal program like Bray's Terminal, or Smiley's Developer Terminal with a split send/receive screen is helpful.  Enjoy!!!

'This example uses alternate software UART/RS232 routines.
'The Pic is programmed to wait for a value to be sent from a
'terminal/computer, and will return an a2d value if the received
'value is a match.  All constants of SerInit need to be edited to suit
'device choice and baud rate.  At this time, the low pin count
'devices like the 12f675, 12C5XX are not supported.

For inverted output:

    wait halfbaud us ;do half bit time delay

Changed:

If SerRx Off Then [line 3&5]
Set RxByte.7 0/1 [line 15&19]

Sorry, unconsciously modified and saved these lines,
This line should be changed for inverted output.
