SPI for 8013

Started by haoyeshen July 30, 2006
I am trying to use 8013's SPI to send a 16 bits long info to a slave
device. I am wondering if I could use SendChar command to do it. My
concerns is that a Char is only 8 bits long. Can I use SendChar twice
to achieve 16 bits long info? if not, how can I send 16 bits word by
using SPI? Please help and thanks in advance.
There is property 'Width' in the SPI bean interface. Do you have selected 16 bits communication width? If not, choose 16 bits item in this property.
