<DIV></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000000 size=2>Looking for software or source to
do with monitoring data coming in from serial (or serial via USB) port,
all I want to do is capture it and append it as it arrives to a disk
file.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000000 size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000000 size=2>This sounds like a common type of
tool - Anyone know of something good/free/simple or source tools to do
this?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000000 size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000000 size=2>Records come in quite slowly, its
capturing the output data from a PABX to get office phone call info, so 1
every few seconds is likely. PABX has a serial output option with a fixed
format, no buffering - it just outputs the data as calls end. There is
commercial software to do this with database and reports, but in this case all
they want is to capture the data for further processing at the end of the
day...</FONT></DIV>
