=A0I have a circuit I put together and the last time I built it..worked fin=
e.=A0 Did about 10 boards, and it was based on the Jan Axelson 555 where it=
 controls the direction based on the transmit data (normally the 485 side i=
s enabled).=A0 I have a USB to RS485 adapter to test from FTDI (USB-COM485-=
P-PLUS1) and I and TTL to RS232 dongle on the other side.

Running Terraterm for both, when I send data from the RS485 side, it shows =
up just fine on the other side (TTL side).=A0 However when I send from the =
TTL side, nothing shows up on the screen for the RS485 side.

The LEDs on the RS485 dongle light up on both the transmit and recieve just=
 fine, and in fact hooking a scope up to both sides, I can see the correct =
character from the TTL to the RS485.

So I think its something that Terraterm doesnt like.=A0 Is there a better t=
erminal program?
