BS2 to Hyperterminal to text editor???

edited 2006-11-30 02:43 in General Discussion
I have a small program running on my BS2 that sends input to my PC via serial (db9) connection. I can view the inputs from teh Hyperterminal but i would like to have the input to go to a document on my disk.

For example, if i had a notepad file called "test.txt", I would like the input to go to that file or any other file that i specify.

Is this possible? Anyone have any ideas as how to set this up?

    A quick and dirty way to do this is use the Tranfer-Capture Text in hyperterm.

    Otherwise you'll need to write a program on the PC to log the data.

    Hope this helps!

    Have you looked at Stamp Plot Lite or Pro?· I haven't personnally used it, but I know they have an option to write a file to the disk.· It's also free...

    Also, if the data are limited and the need is not ongoing, you can highlight text on the Stamp Editor's debug screen, then copy and paste it.

    You can use something like: Advanced Serial Terminal. See my post on it called: Free way of internet connecting your stamp.
    Simply have the Editor redirect the file to a .txt file instead of a .html file
