Yo Group! Does anyone know of a windows or DOS based RS232 monitor that can show the numeric equivalents of the characters being received by a com port on the PC? e. g. a string "ABC[cr][lf][eot]" would be shown as [65][66][67][04][13][10] in decimal or [41][42][43][0D][0A][04] in hex. I'm trying to monitor a data stream being generated by a PIC with a lot of non-printing binary data and need to see what each character is to validate the data stream. I thought the old DOS versions of Procomm could do this, but apparently not. If anyone knows of such a beast--preferably free--I would sure like to hear about it. Thanks Kelly William K.
