Hello, I need a terminal program for use with half duplex RS485 on a PC. RS232 from the PC goes to a RS232/485 converter and the DTR or RTS signal should control the direction. As soon as the terminal program has anything to send (or if possible when it has something to send AND the RS485 buss is free) it should assert it with DTR or RTS, send its data and release the bus again. This will only be for debugging purposes; send a command via the keyboard or a macro to my RS485 node and watch the result on the screen. All communication is standard readable ASCII. Does there exist any terminal program that can do this? ============================== Ruben Jvnsson AB Liros Elektronik Box 9124, 200 39 Malmv, Sweden TEL INT +4640142078 FAX INT +4640947388 ruben@2.sbbs.se ==============================
