I've tried normal as well as non blocking, but still can't get more than 17 chars per input with the concerto. Is there some special initialization I must do?
The 17 char limit was actually due to the UART output. I had to remove the check for the uart being available for the output to exceed that limit (UARTSpaceAvail(UART0_BASE). Any clues as to why? I am not running interrupts, but have a FreeRTOS task assigned to dump a ring buffer to the com port at 38400 baud. Servicing the port does not seem to be a problem.
Thanks
