| + | It is always a good idea to test the script first using a terminal emulator, such as Hyper Terminal or PuTTY on Windows 9x to make sure communication works. If you get no connection or garbled text, you may try to play with the Flow Control settings. Sometimes you will need to select Hardware, or XON / XOFF for the flow control. Also make sure the Max speed setting matches what the script is operating on. Make sure you are using the right COM port on the computer. Go to Control Panel --> System --> Device Manager and under Ports, verify your serial port name. For example in my case it is COM1. | ||
