Hallo all, I have some strange problems with ckermit and my HP48 pocket calculator:
1. The connection works: If I do cat /dev/ttyS0 (where the calculator is connected) and start a kermit transmission from it, I get some strange characters on the console: unsolved [/home/jens] $ cat /dev/ttyS0 `+ S~* @-#Y3$ So the connection works. 2. If I call kermit and issue: set line /dev/ttyS0 set speed 9600 set parity none set file type binary receive and start the transfer on the HP with SEND, kermit changes to the2 transfer progress" page and waits for packets to be transmitted. The HP does not get a connection and retries to connect. Each of the retries is shown by kermit with: --------------------------------------------------- Packet Type: % Packet Count: 1 Packet Length: 14 Error Count: 1 Last Error: Retransmission --------------------------------------------------- The Error count is incremented with every retry of the HP. What might cause this? Is there something I forgot to set? Where to set the Checksum of the packets (which chk setting to use on the HP48)? 3. if I stop the transfer on the calculator, kermit gets back to the prompt. But if I issue receive and start SEND on the HP again, kermit does not get to the "transfer progress" page and has to be stopped by C-c. 4. Then if I try to exit kermit it hangs (but can be interrupted by C-c --- going back to the kermit prompt). 3. and 4. are completly mysterious to me. Some clues anyone?
