Hardware switch to switch the software serial pins being "transceived" on.

Hi Robin2,

Yes, the data was ONLY veiwable in the serial monitor. The Victron Software could NOT sens the devices with this code, the likely hood that I screwed the code up is VERY good.

#include <SoftwareSerial.h>
 
SoftwareSerial MPPT(3, 5); //Naming Pins And Input
SoftwareSerial BMV(6, 9); //Naming Pins And Input
const int threshold = 800; // Tells when to change state

void setup() {
  // initialize both serial ports:
  Serial.begin(19200);
  MPPT.begin(19200); // RX 3 TX 5
  BMV.begin(19200); // RX 6 TX 9
}

void loop() {
   int analogValue = analogRead(A0);
  // read from port 1, send to port 0:
   if (analogValue > threshold)
   if (MPPT.available()) {
   int inByte = MPPT.read();
    Serial.write(inByte);
  }

  // read from port 0, send to port 1:
  if (Serial.available()) {
    int inByte = Serial.read();
   MPPT.write(inByte);
  }

       analogValue = analogRead(A0);
   if (analogValue < threshold)
   if (BMV.available()) {
   int inByte = BMV.read();
    Serial.write(inByte);
  }

 
  // read from port 0, send to port 1:
    if (Serial.available()) {
    int inByte = Serial.read();
   BMV.write(inByte);
  }}

Hope this is clear enough, let me know if not and I will do my best to re-phrase.

Kind Regards
Charles.
