NOOOO heresy please......I know I could have used sprintf().....as in sprintf (failure)....

What is not seen is the header, camH, camL are all #defines in the define.h file that has the ASCII equivalent value for the needed packet string.

So from this point, I can use those to be named as the first three element arrays. I've never had to dynamically alter an array with values, typically they were all fixed at design time. I'll try to give the dynamic array load a shot.....I agree with the looping for the packet building from the array data, when I first developed it, I need to ensure the datasteam was correct......and it is....so looping will surely optimize the process. I'll add that in and see what I can come up with.

Using your rules, I'll give it a shot.
