Very nice small tool if you want a quick look at the serial protocol. The timestamp which will is a nice feature. What I miss is a hex-view of the whole telegram.
Nice compact little utility which runs OK on Win 98SE - only has the one display mode in which printable characters are displayed as they are and non printable characters are displayed in green as Hexadecimal. The data I am trying to analyse contains no text so I would prefer to be able to choose for all data to be displayed and captured as Hex - seemingly not possible in this version. Would also like to be able to turn off time-marks. Nice program though, simple and effective.
Program performs well. I am not sure what the time delay is at this time. I am using the program to record NMEA output from a gps and fishfinder. I need to relate the depths to position, time is the common reference.Dick
Serial Comms review 1. easy to install on XP, Win98 machines of all vintages2. works with real serial ports or with USB/Serial converters3. only small issue is that you must decide on Baud/Bits prior to connecting other serial device, once connected must disconnect to change settings.
No connection to port Once the device was connected to the serial port the data logger could not monitor the port and if the data logger was pre-connected, the device would not connect.I was unable to use the program and do not have the time to figure it out.
SAL232 review I was looking for a RS232 snooper program that could time stamp the communication. SAL232 looks very fine, but lacks ability to adjust baud rate to user requested baud rate. My need is 10400 baud.
