#113177 - Not RS232
Responding to: ???'s previous message
As Kalpak Dabir has already said, RS232 is not a bus - so you cannot do this with strictly RS232 - in particular, you won't be able to include the PC on any "bodge" that you might devise.

For a standard approach, RS485 would be the way to go.
If you do, be sure to follow Erik Malund's recommendation:

Also, go to the 'Links' page and search for "Best Serial Comm Appnote site"...

And also search this forume for the very many previous discussions of RS485.
