Programming and operation during reception
Data sent from an external device connected to the RS232C port is stored in the data registers that have been
set as the reception buffer.
Data registers are used for the reception buffer. Specify the data registers in system registers 416 to 419.
The number of bytes of data received is stored in the starting address of the reception buffer. The initial value
is "0".
Received data is stored in the received data storage area in order from the lower−order byte.
