Hello all, Today I made myself a nice and simple serial cable - TX, RX and ground (I don't need anything else), and it works well when I connect 2 laptops to each other, running HyperTerminal. Unfortunately, HyperTerminal does not record serial data sent by 2 different evaluation boards (MCBSTR7/9), running Keil / ST sample code. What can be the cause of this? Can it be related to the type of wire I used? Any ideas are welcome!
Thanks in advance
Andy, Thanks for your reply. I have made a new cable nad successfully tested it. And I also did some reading which cleared things up further. You see, until now, every time I did a project I got the hardware and the cable(s) so I didn't have to worry about anything bit the software - now that I need to do it myself, I get to learn a lot. Sometimes a push in the right direction helps, too.
