hello,
I'm trying to get any reply, which could help us. we need to recieve text messages from AXN control board, there is possible to define any text. when i run Hyperterminal setted up on 9600kbs no parity, one stop bit and no hardware control i can see all signals. But when i set up Serial text node same in Ventuz, I see nothing recieved. I've tried to change all setting, same result. Its needed to setup AXN to some special text messages? I dont know, please help...
bye clad

Hi clad,
we tested the Serial Text Node via Null Modem cabel and it works (default settings).
Unfortunately we do not have the AXN control board to test it.
So I can´t tell you anything right now.
Sorry!
Best Regards
karol

I've made another round of tests, and I really see that problem is in ventuz, we have two computers with fresh clean systems, updated, conected by laplink serial cable, on one Hyperterminal sending signals, on second Hyperterminal recieving them. I stop HT on second and run Ventuz there. and there is nothing. when i run HT over ventuz i can see that COM1 (only one serial port in computer) its not free and i cant connect. so i see, that ventuz is working on this port, but without any result.

Hi clad,
please give me the exact format of the message you need to receive - including all special characters like RTX, ETX, CR, LF, ....
Did you confure the SerialText node properly by using the custom model editor?
Ralf

Hi clad,
does the AXM send any line-end characters (like CR/LF). If not you'll need to set the EndOfText property to None.

Hi Ralf,
we had it setted to None, but it wasnt working. So we changed AXM to send CR-LF (both) with every message and it start working. I can see LastMessage text and OnMessage event, but OnA, OnC etc. custom model events are not triggered. I've tried to set up InA (etc) in Input tab, but still no events on output. Any help, how to setup custom events?
or i have to find how to make case condition on string variable in ventuz...
bye clad
