Hello Walter I didn't see your definition of readBuf.why you expecting an address to change? I am glad you found the TI examples helpful. Mark

Basically, I read the data from FIFO0 fine, strip the step id from it and copy it into an element of a character array in the PRU code. <start of snippet of PRU code> Data = HWREG(SOC_ADC_TSC_0_REGS + TSC_ADC_SS_FIFODATA(0)); if ((Data & 0x000F0000) == 0) { // checking the step id tag for step 0// if step == 0, strip off the step and put the data in array DetBSampleDetBSample[sampleno] = Data & 0xFFF; memcpy(payload, "\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 24); // this came from TI's sample code, best I can tell it just preloads and end of string character in the whole string.ltoa((long)DetBSample[sampleno], payload); // put the value in DetBSample[sampleno] in the character string payload// now send the payload to the host pru_rpmsg_send(&transport, dst, src, payload, 24); This code compiles and runs fine. On the host side, I do this when I'm kicked by the PRU. (This is a snippet so brackets may not match!) /* Poll until we receive a message from the PRU and then print it */result = read(pollfds[0].fd, readBuf, MAX_BUFFER_SIZE); if (result > 0) { Volts = atof(readBuf)*ADC_Res; printf("Message %d received from PRU:%s or %x\n", i, readBuf, readBuf); printf("Volts read: %.3f\n",Volts); The output is strange though (snippet below). The message #, string value of readBuf and Volts are all correct. But when I output readBug as hex, it never changes. I thought it might be the address of readBuf but it doesn't appear to be. The voltage matches the input we're providing from a bench power supply and the decimal value is correct. It's just that this hex value doesn't change.
