That depends on the hardware / device you are trying to communicate with. If you are using a null modem cable with another PC, a 115200 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity, and XON/XOFF flow control should work fine. Other devices may require a lower baud rate. Some special microcontrollers may also require no flow control.
yes
With a rollover cable, and the proper adapters on either end connected to the console port and your computer's serial port. You'll need an application on your computer to interface with it. Generally Hyperterminal works well. If you're Mac/Unix, you can use "screen".
HyperTerminal can be purchased from Hilgraeve, Inc at the link below.
hey gents, i attached a device to a usb port which should be attached to a rs 232 port. now i need to "talk" to the device of course. is there a software which ports the data streams from the usb attached device to a free com port? so i can use hyperterminal on windows xp to send and receive data to the device. thank you so much for your help, which his appreciated. greets, nimrod316@gmx.de
Only if my router didn't support any other interface.
To connect from Host 1 to Router 1 using HyperTerminal, first, ensure that the correct serial cable is connected between Host 1's COM port and Router 1's console port. Open HyperTerminal on Host 1 and create a new connection, selecting the appropriate COM port. Configure the connection settings, typically using 9600 baud rate, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, and no flow control. Finally, click "Connect" to establish the console session, allowing you to interact with Router 1's command line interface.
The port that is connected can either be COM1 or COM2 depending on the communication port.
Not in the same session. However. multiple instances of HyperTerminal can be opened.
Yes, Yahoo Mail updated its port settings for outgoing mail to enhance security. Users are now required to use port 465 or 587 for SMTP with SSL or TLS. It's important to ensure that your email client is configured with these settings to maintain proper email functionality. For the latest information, always refer to Yahoo's official support documentation.
No. Hyperterminal is not present in Vista or Windows 7. There are third party alternatives you may be able to use to accomplish what you need to do.
A modem's port settings typically comprise the following five criteria: the port number, which specifies the communication endpoint; the protocol, indicating the type of communication (e.g., TCP, UDP); the baud rate, determining the speed of data transmission; data bits, which define the number of bits in each data packet; and parity, which is used for error checking in data transmission. These settings ensure proper communication between devices.
Windows 7 doesn't come with or provide an equivalent. You can purchase the full version of HyperTerminal from Hilgraeve, or use a free alternative, such as PuTTY.
