Introduction
Serial Port Monitor is a professional application for RS232/422/485
COM ports monitoring. It monitors, displays, logs and analyzes all
serial port activity in a system. Serial Port Monitor is a powerful
system utility for exploring the way OS works, monitoring how
applications use ports, for tracking down problems in system or
application configurations and processes. Advanced filtering,
built-in search, professional send dialog (built-in terminal) and
data exporting options build up a rich feature-list, which along
with a user-friendly and flexible interface become its key
advantages. Serial Port Monitor gives maximum functionality for
advanced users of serial ports.
Serial Port Monitor main features:
- Start/stop monitoring of the serial port which
is already opened by other application (available in Professional
Edition only)
- Serial Port Monitor is completely compatible
with Windows Vista
- Serial Port Monitor
and all of its internal drivers are digitally signed
- Advanced serial port monitoring functionality.
Any number of serial ports can be monitored simultaneously
- Supports all COM-port types: standard on-board
ports, extension board ports, software-based virtual COM ports,
bluetooth serial ports, USB to SERIAL cradles, etc
- Data transmission and logging
- Advanced send dialog: easily send various types
of data, apply aliases for faster typing and automation, send files
and loop functions and commands, change serial port parameters
on-the-fly (available in Professional Edition
only)
- Real-time data capture
- Various monitoring visualizers: table view, line
view, dump view, terminal view
- Incoming and outgoing data streams logging
- Multi-colored commands display in table view
- Any software/hardware that works with a serial
port can be monitored
- Intercept and record all serial input/output
control codes (IOCTLs), tracking their full details and
parameters
- Customizable monitoring session logging (several
timestamp formats, different scale of notation, customizable
logging string length etc.)
- Convenient and flexible monitoring session's
management: saving and loading all monitored data, exporting and
redirecting to file functions
- Monitoring session exporting (HTML, ASCII text,
UNICODE text, Exсel CSV) and automatic redirection to file (Serial
Port Monitor will automatically append all monitored data to a file
in real-time)
- Supports copying all recorded data to
clipboard
- Supports adding data automatically before and
after packet to be transmitted
- Full duplex mode supported
- Control lines status visualized
- Unique stream filtering tools with presets
- All baudrates supported
- Flexible configuration: stopbits, flow control,
parity control, data bits, highlighting, etc.
- Fast working and a precise request timing can be
used to test different software
- User-friendly flexible interface: the software is
designed to provide easy access to serial ports, no programming
skills are required
Serial Port Monitor can be used for:
- monitoring serial data exchange between serial
devices and any Windows application
- debugging computer connection with peripheral
devices using COM ports, such as modem, mini-ATS, projector,
etc
- solving problems with serial (RS232/422/485) data
communication control networks and devices
- implementing, debugging and reverse-engineering
serial protocol
- sending and capturing binary, ASCII and HEX data
passing via serial connections
- convenient interaction with any equipment over
RS232/RS422/RS485 interface
- serial devices drivers development
- development of hardware with serial
interfaces
- hardware and software testing
Serial Port Monitor can be successfully used by:
- programmers and beta-testers
- quality-control engineers
- peripheral software developers
- OEM development and test engineers
- system integrators
- field service and maintenance engineers
- industrial control and SCADA design
engineers
System requirements:
- Windows 2000/XP/2003/Vista/x64
- at least one COM port
