I am trying to download data from a remote datalogger using a combination of
c-kermit and rx. I have only two choices for data transfer protocol, ascii
dump (no error checking) and xmodem due to software constraints on the data
logger. The connection is made and the menu system on the datalogger is
negotiated reliably. The menu selection to start the xmodem download gets the
appropriate response and then I issues this command in the kermit script:
!rx -uvy /weather/weather_log.951206 </dev/cur0 >/dev/cur0
2>>/weather/weather_log.log
(all on one line)
At that point what I see in the log file is:
Receiving:
rx: ready to receive /root/weather/weather_log.951206
Retry 0: Got 040 sector header
and everything stops. I have to kill the rx process to get things to continue.
I've tried it without the rx -options -- no difference.
I tried having kermit release the line before the call -- the shell complains
that the device isn't available and aborts.
I'm running Linux 1.2.11. Any suggestions will be appreciated. Thanks.
