Hi,
I am trying to collect data from a Mass Spec ( RS-232, ASCII).
I downloaded MS-kermit. Connected the serial port on my PC to the
instrument with a new RS-232C cable and a null modem.
Started Kermit. Set port 1. set the baud rate to be same in both
computer and instrument. Parity none. 8 data bits. Typed the commands
given by Frank
log session test
input 200 qwer
(after 200 seconds get a message -- ? Timeout)
close session
The file test has been created. But no data has been collected in the
test file.
Any pointers as to what I might be doing wrong? (the instrument is not
sending out the data or the computer is not receiving it or Kermit is
not setup properly??)
Thanks a lot.
