DSCOPE: USING THE 320'S SECOND SERIAL PORT


Information in this article applies to:

  • dScope Version 1

QUESTION

I know that I can use the SERIAL WINDOW in dScope as a terminal attached to serial port 0, but how can I reassign it to serial port 1?

ANSWER

Use the ASSIGN command in dScope. For example:

ASSIGN channel < inreg > outreg

The ASSIGN command lets you display and change the input and output sources for the specified serial channel. For example, to tell dScope to monitor serial port 1 in the serial window, you would enter:

ASSIGN WIN < S1IN > S1OUT

This tells dScope to set the channel WIN (Serial Window) to receive input from S1IN (Serial port 1) and send output to S1OUT (Serial port 1). Valid channels are WIN, COM1, COM2, COM3, and COM4. Valid INREG values are SIN and S1IN, and valid OUTREG values are SOUT or S1OUT.

If you are having difficulties assigning the serial window to a com port under windows, make sure that:

  1. You don't have a communications driver loaded for the desired port,
  2. You have the most current version of dScope. Version 1.2L supports com port redirection, but earlier Windows versions do not.
