How do I Insert the special characters in the RS232 Macro?
I've inserted a word "Press Start" on the RS232 macro and I need to insert a carriage return \r to change the next cycle to a new line.

Hello Pinto

You can send special characters by using their decimal ASCII values.

Carriage Return = 13
Comma = 44
Quotes = 34
Ctrl-Z = 26

Make sure you send the number without quotes around and everything should work as expected.

Hi Benj,
It worked fine when I simulated on Proteus Virtual Monitor, although it had no effect on Flowcode3 RS232 simulator.

Thanks
