7.9.17.6 Serial I/O Application Testing
A common problem when developing a serial I/O application is the lack of an
immediately available serial device with which to develop and test programs.
Using HyperTerminal, a developer can simulate the output of a serial device or
capture serial input.
Note HyperTerminal is provided as a utility with Windows XP and earlier
versions of Windows. HyperTerminal is not provided with later versions of
Windows, but can be purchased separately from http://www.hilgraeve.com.
HyperTerminal automatically converts binary data to ASCII on the screen.
Binary data can be captured, saved to a file, and then viewed with a hexadecimal
editor. Other terminal emulators are available from third-party vendors that
facilitate capture of binary or hexadecimal data.
