debug macro help

cdcd

I want to take data from a tilt sensor for an extended period of time. I'm sending the data to a debug terminal, but the terminal can only handle 1024 lines, which is not enough. Can I send this data directly to a file, possibly with a macro?

cdcd

I just discovered the Max Buffer Size (lines) setting and increased it to 8192, which should be enough lines. Still, is there an easy way to output directly into a text file?

You could use something like HyperTerminal that can directly capture serial input to a file. The Stamp Editor debug window doesn't have that capability, but the DEBUG output is just standard asynchronous serial data, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, 9600 Baud. Any terminal emulator should be able to do the job. On a Mac, I use both ZTerm and MacWise, both inexpensive, but not free. I'm sure there are all sorts of shareware terminal emulators for Windows that will handle this task.
