Best RS-232 program (NOT hyperterminal:)
Russell Shaw
I needs an RS-232 terminal debugger program thing that can display
characters from a COM port in ascii or hex, preferably for Win95.
Any suggestions on your favourites?
Trond-Ivar Lynghaug
application called "RS232 Hex Com Tool" from "Virtual Integrated
Design" (www.viddata.com).
I have found it very useful.
You can download a free demo and check if that's what you need.

of course Hyperterminal is a Microsoft product ...
I use PCom Lite from www.moxa.com which comes with serial cards.
It's a very handy multiwindow terminal program.

I use conex, which I got from a freeware site. I have been able to use
it in DOS and W98.

Hyperterm is many things, but "a Microsoft product" is not one of
them. It's from Hilgraeve.

Back in the good ol' days I was a big fan of ProComm. I haven't used
it in years, and it took me a while to find it (DataStorm was
purchased by QuarterDeck, which somewhere down the road was acquired
by Symantec, which has somehow classified it as "Enterprise Security"
software -- furrfu). I can't figure out if a trial version is
available or even how much it costs. It was awesome in DOS, haven't
tried any Windoze versions...
You might also want to look at www.comlite.com. Not a terminal
program per se, but a serial line monitor that's pretty slick. And
it's free (as in free beer rather than free speech). "Beta" version
hasn't been updated in some time, but it works well.

Actually, it is just bundled with Windows. It is from a company called
Hilgraeve. You can go to their site and download a free upgrade to
Hyperterminal that blows away the one in Windows, supporting much better
terminal emulation, telnet, and Zmodem transfers over telnet. Very nice
package, unlike the crappy one in Windows.

I've never tried their commercial version, though.

I used it quite a lot both the Windows and DOS versions and I like them.
The Windows version is good, with ASCII and HEX functions, very
configurable and with a scripting tool. I don't know if the DOS version has
that, but for me the Windows version was OK.

If you want something that behaves like a real data scope, and you are
willing to fork out US$400, then use ViewComm for Windows from
Greenleaf Software:
http://www.gleaf.com/VCW110Summary.asp
This software requires two serial ports, since it will monitor DTE and
DCE concurrently. The necessary cables to hook things up are provided
with the software.
IMHO this is $400 well spent.

Yes, ProComm was a very good tool and I have run the DOS version under
Win95 Command Prompt window easily enough too. If IIRC, ProComm (or a
version of it) can be found at http://www.cdrom.com/ (quite a famous
shareware site).

TERM232.EXE on our "resource" page:
http://www.industrologic.com/resource.htm
This is a Win32 version of a program I wrote and continued to
add features to for many years when I needed something to "eavesdrop"
on some other RS-232 devices. It has the features I most needed.
It is a single 86K EXE program, no DLL's and fast (PowerBasic).

Hmm, why is it that a software name that contains the word green
automatically means the prices are out of this world? That would
be AUS$800 over here.
I found "RS-232 Hex COM Tool" from www.viddata.com also works between
two com ports. Unfortunately, it isn't usable with a one-com-port
laptop.

Look at Comlite32 (free) here http://www.rtcomm.com
I'm quite impressed with it. Can monitor between two ports or between one
port and an application running on the same PC - it is only a monitor
though.

So if they are capable of producing a decent product, what's
their excuse for the piece of useless crap that ships with
Windows?
After all the problems I've had with Hyperterminal there's no
way I'd try another product from the same company.

I can't believe you wouldn't knock out a entry level dos one in an
afternoon. If working interrupts is a problem, the speed most machines run
at now, polling the port will keep up with most things you'd want to do
(=<19k2).
I remember doing this with interrupts (in pascal) about 10 years ago, it
took an evening with never having used the 8250 (16450) before. We produced
a simple Wyse60 emulator and then expanded it later to include hex/ascii and
dual direction monitoring. The terminal state machine took the longest time,
not the comms. Once you have a good serial include file, any of these things
are possible in no-time flat. Download some serial C code (available from
lots of locations), try it.
In Win95, the MSComm control works just fine if you allow for the
possibility of char zero reception by accepting strings of maximum one
character in size. Use VB and knock out a simple ascii/hex comm program in
an hour or two.

When Win95 shipped, the product was somewhat immature. It has since
improved greatly, but MS hasn't bothered to licence any better version.
That said, I can't find a hex view function, so its still not appropriate
for the required task.

the DCE and DTE, and display the info in hex or ascii. It runs under DOS
and has a special cable that allows a PC to become a serial communication
analyzer. We have an old 486 lap top with two serial ports and it work
great and is easy to use.
This is more than what you asked for but it may be what you really want.

I tried that out and it immediately hung my system. It came up
announcing something like "no config file, using defaults", after
which the mouse did not function, nor did key sequences. After I
3 fingered it the system was virtually dead, although I could
CTL-ESC to a shutdown.
This may have something to do with my rodent being on COM1.

I like telling users when the program is doing something like

Thanks for the feedback! That is probably why, although I should
change it so it does not do that.

Control | Connection mode
Gives you options
Fake data mode - no ports required
Single line mode - 1 port required
Dual line mode - 2 ports required
I have not actually run it on a machine with a single COM port but it has
certainly run with only one COM port used.

I use ZOC from www.emtec.com - it includes hex display and loads of
stuff I don't need or use. I've had it for a couple of years running
under Win95 and I'm very happy with it. It's shareware which lasts for
IIRC a year before the reminders get annoying, but I was more than happy
to pay for it.

Very simple and efficient is OC-Console for Win32 from U. Altenburg,
www.castlesoft.de (improved version at www.elektronikladen.de). AFAIR
only in German but not too difficult to understand.
UniCom http://www.shamrock.de/dostools.htm for DOS has more features,
English docs.
But I don't recommend DOS programs anymore an a Windows PC:
Since Windows 98 I see more often problems with DOS programs using COM
ports although I use the usual system.ini entries:
[386Enh]
COM1AutoAssign=5
COM1Buffer=2048
COM1Fifo=1
And I'm not sure what will happen in the future: will the next release
of Windoze support virtual COM ports for DOS applications even worse?
What happens if I use a "legace free" PC with no real 16550 but some
USB port?

My PC freezes for many seconds when I start the program. Not even a

Do you consider to allow _any_ baudrate? I found not even 28800bps.
There might be also an application for 23040 or 16457bps.
CBFalconer
I would like to find something that just sits there and displays
the actual traffic on the port. It doesn't have to inject
anything, just monitor raw data and either display and/or capture
it to a file or files (in and out). Under W9x.
Russell Shaw
IIRC, in single-line mode, the options for setting the baud-rate
disappeared, and the program somehow hooked onto the windows com
port drivers to do the monitoring. If you're sure thats wrong,
i'll download again and try it.

I just re-installed and tried it, but it doesn't work on its own.
It says in the help that in single-line mode, it intercepts data
from the connection of a currently running application. So, i
started hyperterminal on com1, then started comlite32 on com1,
and it works! The amount of bloatware needed to look at one com
port, yick!

In single line mode it inserts itself between the COM port and some other
application using that COM port. All the port settings are the
responsibility of that other application.
So you need to run a dumb terminal program or something aswell.

I use a very good and small test program calles SYSTEST. I contacted
the authors and they tell me that it has become freeware.
You can change all serial port settings on the fly, even the flow
control levels can be changed . HEX/ASCII display. Serial data can
be analysed etc
The same program can also test the parallel port, vga etc.
I've put it for download on my site:

I've got a mouse on COM1, and it works for me. I use ComLite32 to
monitor
COM2 or COM3. (Running Win98)

ZCOMM's terminal mode can display in normal CRT emulation mode,
as ^M^J, or in hex. It's shareware, comes in DOS and WIN32
flavors, and is available on the Omen web site. The WIN32
flavor has a builtin telnet client.

(with the SSH extension) terminal emulator but can talk through the COM
port as well. It's probably not as comprehensive as something like
Telix but it's been useful for the things I've had to do lately. Also
it means I only need to worry about one program for telnet/terminal
access.
