Hi all I got one of these USB to RS232 converters for my laptop (Bafo B810). I've run into a problem where it does not work properly on some units I need to comm with. In this case it is an Omron PLC. It works fine on my PICStart (ie, it connects, but I have not programmed a PIC with it yet). I now suspect that it is the RTS, CLS, etc. signals that is not working. Anybody knows of a simple freeware app that I can use to test this? So if I make a loopback plug and run a test. Please note, it is the RTS, etc. signals I want to test, I can test RX and TX with a terminal program easily enough.
