Serial terminal app help, send/receive hex to I/O board, trying Moserial unsuccessfully.
by Edward_ from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5GF4W)
My first post for this topic quit displaying for some reason.
I'm trying to do a basic communication test of an I/O board (on Linux Mint) that uses a 9-bit hex string. You send a read-status hex string to the board, it then responds with a hex string.
The problem I have is getting the Moserial terminal app to operate. I have tested the new I/O board with Realterm in windows and it works perfectly, but Moserial doensn't work, and generates an error message when setting send & receive to Hex and sending.
See the below image link for the expected hex send and reply example. Green hex is sent to module, yellow hex is the response.
