Try: write numtochar( tValue ) to file thePort This will only work for values less than 256, however. You can increase that range by breaking the number down into individual bytes and sending those in sequence. What you should do instead is send the number as ascii as you are now, but end it wit

i forgot to answer why would you send it as a binary. Take for instance the older X10 controller. To send it data to operate it required you to send it as a binary code which is 0's & 1's and that may be what your controller is asking for. If it is you transfer say the number 125 into 3 separate

There are two types of binary data at least on the Mac. 1. Is when you use 0 and 1's which is binary code to represent the data. For instance you can take these words or numbers such as 125 and represent them in binary code which would end up being a bunch of 0's and 1's. In the serial stack I
