RS485 serial read

[racdar92]

Oh sorry I misunderstood. Thanks for all your help I will try out ur suggestions and get back. I am connecting a PIC24FV16KM202 to my converter. The pic is programmed to transmit the string "bye112023" via UART over RS485 2-wire cable.

could you share the vi for reading, as I am working on similar project and I am able to write from rs485 but while reading I am getting data but it is neither in numeric nor in hexadecimal format, some symbolic representation is coming as shown in attached image.

The data that I am expecting are 8 byte data = 22 0 0 0 0 248 249 246

And that's probably what you're getting.  Try setting the read buffer string indicator to show hex values.  Or, for more clarity, convert the string into an array of u8 and see what you get...

thank you, changing indicator to codes display solves my issue
