getChar(uartOne);  // retrieve the next char from UART Port 'uartOne'

void sendChar(const TUARTs nPort, short nChar)

(void) Function will send the next character to port 'nPort'.

Parameter	Explanation	Data Type
nPort	A sensor port or name	TUARTs
nChar	A char to send to 'nPort'. (Can be a short or a char)	short

sendChar(uartOne, 'B');  // send the next char from UART Port 'uartOne'

void setBaudRate(const TUARTs nPort, TBaudRate nBaudRate)

(void) Function will set the Baud Rate for port 'nPort'.
