Figure 5-4. Testing the RS-232 Host Port
Terminal
This procedure uses the Terminal accessory supplied with Windows (or equal)
to test RS-232 Host port operation. To use this method, you must select term as the
Remote I/F in Step 4 in the procedure “RS-232 Host Port Setup Procedure.”
Visual Basic
This procedure uses Visual Basic (see Appendix D) to test RS-232 Host
port and RS-232 UUT port operation.
How to Test RS-232 Host Port Operation with a Terminal
Complete the following procedure to test RS-232 Host port operation using the Windows
Terminal accessory (or equal).
1.
Complete the “RS-232 Host Port Setup Procedure” earlier in this chapter to set up the
Calibrator for RS-232 Host port operation. Note the RS-232 Host port parameters
that you selected in this procedure.
2.
Connect the selected COM port on the PC to the Calibrator SERIAL 1 FROM HOST
port using a standard null-modem RS-232 cable. (See Appendix C for information on
RS-232 cables and connectors.)
3.
Open Windows to the Program Manager screen on your PC.
4.
Open Terminal from the Accessory group of Program Manager (below). If a terminal
configuration file already exists, e.g.,
