Serial
port
monitor is one of the most important features available in the 232Analyzer
software.
It allows data monitoring in
Hexadecimal, Decimal, Octal, Binary or ASCII format. All data flows are logged in the Communication
Window, which can be saved as .txt, .doc or .rtf files for further
analysis.
Not just designed to monitor RS-232
communication, with the right type of serial converters, such as
CommFront's
CVT-485-1,
CVT-485_422-1 and
TTL-232-1, 232Analyzer can also be used to monitor RS-485, RS-422
and TTL communications.
All monitoring modes available in
232Analyzer software come with
timestamps in
milliseconds.

Serial Port
Monitor: Monitor RS-232 Communication
|
|
1) With direction indication |
|
|
|
 |
| |
By using a Full-Duplex Monitor cable,
the 232Analyzer software can capture not only the data flowing
between the serial devices but also the data direction. |
| |
|
|
|
|
2) Without direction indication |
|
 |
|
A Half-Duplex Monitor cable can
capture the data flowing between the serial devices.
Note: No data direction will be indicated in the 232Analyzer
software. |

Serial
Port Monitor: Monitor RS-485 Communication
|
|
 |
|
Use a R-232/RS-485 converter (CVT-485-1 or CVT-485_422-1) to capture the data flowing between
the RS-485 serial devices. Connect 485+ and 485- of the serial
devices to A+ and B- of the converter respectively. |
| |
|
|
Serial Port
Monitor: Monitor RS-422
Communication
|
|
 |
| |
Use two RS-232/RS-422 converters (CVT-485_422-1) to capture the data flowing between the
RS-422 serial
devices. Connect TX+ and TX- of the serial devices to RX+ and RX- of
the converters for both sides of the connections. Switch to Full-Duplex monitoring mode in 232Analyzer
software. |

|
| |
Serial Port
Monitor: Monitor TTL Communication
|
| |
 |
| |
By using a Full-Duplex Monitor cable
and two units of RS-232/TTL converters (TTL-232-1),
the 232Analyzer software can capture not only the data flowing
between the TTL devices but also the data direction. |
