Re: RS232 Terminal
I tryed to send a DOC file from one PC to other with my RS232 Terminal. I got no problems. It works fine. What do you think with
"it appear coding number" ?
To send a file from one PC to other:
1) connect both PCs over crossover RS232 cable
2) start my RS232 Terminal on both PCs
3) select COM number and open interfaces on both Terminals
4) klick "log into file" button and write e.g. MyWordFile.doc into the appeared dialog window
5) klick "send file" button on other PC and select the Word File you want to send
6) wait while sending file
7) klick "log into file" button again to stop receiving and closing received file
Ready

Re: RS232 Terminal
this is a wonderful program! Many thanks! I have spent days trying to find such a VI.
I am however having 2 issues .. See attached pic
I spent 2 hours trying to locate the "square" and the duplicate typed character.
Example: I type "i" and a i-square-i displays, however my RS232 device recognizes a single i.
I also cannot determine where the extra line feed is orginating from when I hit <enter>.
Example: When at the first top. prompt, if I type <enter> I get the following display:
top.
top.
I have echo and CR>LF turned off because it just "doubles" the characters I see
TIA!
Justin

Re: RS232 Terminal
Hi Justin, would you switch the display mode to hexadecimal, so you will see what the square means in hex.
The VI shows you ASCII characters, but if the code of the character is not from the ASCII table, you will see unknown characters like this square.
I think the square is something like "acknowledge" from your device. It says ok I received your command.

Re: RS232 Terminal
genius!
in Hex "i" = 69 0869
in backslash "\" i = i \bi
So, on the ASCII table this is a backspace?
One other thing, request really. On the send file command, this is to write the contents of the file to the RS232 port?

Re: RS232 Terminal
Yes, you can send a file over RS232 using this button. And you can log incomming data from RS232 to a file using the button in the near of them.
