a project or simple sample?

Hello friends,
Well I must be honest and in fact this is my age-old question coming arround.

back in vb it looks like this:
mscomm1.comport = "&H" & Text1 '(text1 now should hold BT 6-byte MAC address.. will parse later)
dim bytes (1 to 2) as byte
bytes(1) = "&H" & Text2
bytes(2) = "&H" & Text3
mscomm1.output = bytes
The b4a equivlnt of the above code that I couldn't do.

I fixed your spelling and put it into code tags for you.

What exactly does this code do? (see my signature)

What exactly does this code do? (see my signature)

It sends a 2-byte array to port(Text1).

Do you want to parse a hex string at runtime?
You can use:

Dim bytes() As Byte = Array As Byte(Bit.ParseInt(Text1, 16), Bit.ParseInt(Text2, 16))

If the values are static (not the case here):

Dim bytes() As Byte = Array As Byte(0x234F, 0x1234ABC)

Thanks Erel, this is very helpful.. will try it as soon as the Android config is solved.
