No, the output shown is definitely in hex.
x3F in decimal would be 63 in decimal - and even that wouldn’t match any of the specs…

Okay

it remains strange that with fader on and monitored with
(Advanced Serial Port Monitor:
https://www.aggsoft.com/support/thank-y...id2=3oMkrb)

the result in HEX = 840000850001D00000D00100820701
that's in binary
(840000850001D00000D00100820701)16 = (100001000000000000000000100001010000000000000001110100000000000000000000110100000000000100000000100000100000011100000001)2

but in the PF serial1/0 monitor it is

Hex x3Fx00x00x3Fx00x00x3Fx00x00x3Fx01x00x3Fx07x01
that's in binary
(3F00003F00003F00003F01003F0701)16 = (001111110000000000000000001111110000000000000000001111110000000000000000001111110000000100000000001111110000011100000001)2
and this is where it goes wrong.

And you have tried various Encodings, e.g. Latin1 and UTF-32 etc. and all give exactly the same results?
Indeed strange...

I tested it again and foundout, that the Encoding should not be set to 'utf-8', but to 'DOS-872' or 'IBM852' - then it should work!

But I also found a little issue with the Serial Input and provided a update in a beta version:
A new v4.2.6.13-beta is available - so select "Check for Beta-Versions..." to update (located under to blue question mark icon at the very top right).

hi bernd,
I now get the correct code as D&R describe with IBM852

we are going to test it here this week but it looks promising.
many thanks for your support.
