One main issue is that Cano protocol from decoder to PC does not allow to send voltage information to the scoring software (or temperature or hits).
Yes you are right I should have said default to cano mode that filters out any new packets so all lap timing software will still work.
I didnt think of that yes I want to keep the RC3 compatible with the mylaps decoder going to need a another PIC pin for a mode select too. I need to order some PIC16F18323 along with some other items from digikey. I will do that in 2 weeks. I will look over the asm code closer in the mean time.
My track uses RC3/RC4 I will get a one of the hybrid at some point to have a transponder that I know will work no problems. Plus I want to have a look at the RC4 stuff
