Hello everyone , i need help :confused:!! 

i'm using the rs232 of my DE2 board with an SOPC system.... I'm using assembly with my softcore processor , but i can't seem to read my data (i need to send and recieve one byte at a time), so i would appreciate if one of you guys can help, maybe by proposing the right instructions to use

My advice would be don't use Nios assembly. Ever. For any reason. I don't know if it's true, but I've heard that mentioning that you chose to use assembly over a higher level language is an instant "Do not hire this person" to any tech firm. 

 

Use the provided C routines to talk to your console.
