 		 #126571 - clarification
Responding to: ???'s previous message
One other hint: In systems like this that I have worked on, it was very important to step the motor at exactly the right time, but it was okay to delay the reception of the RS232 characters a little bit, as long as none of them were missed.

you do not "delay the reception of the RS232 characters", you can't.

If you (sorry - I know this is asking a lot) read about the UART in "the bible" you will see that as long as you unload a character from SBUF within 90% of the reception of the next, you are fine.

Russ recommendation of prioritizing the stepper over the UART is very valid and may even be required.
