Hi, but can't i use the builder as it is to write a code that for example send the character 0xA2 throught the USB? or can't i write a code that read byte from the USB? must i use additional components beside what i already have in the builder right now? Also, what is the advantage in the speed when using USB and not RS-232 communication? is there a big different between this two types?
