Hi,
I would like to send a command on a serial port and then powerhome :
- call a macro "macro1" if something is received on the port (no problem for that, it is defined in ph_comopen)
- call a macro "macro2" if nothing is received in a
amount of time (2 secondes for example).
what is the best way to do that ?
Philippe

Philippe,
I think Tony's got it. I would do something very similar like:
Send the COM command
Call Macro 2
Macro1:
ph_killmacrowait("macro2")
handle macro 1 comm stuff
Macro2:
Wait 2
Handle no comm stuff
Dave.
