Re: COM Port Question
Thank you for your response. I was wondering if there any way of testing whether the device attached to COM1, is receiving any data. I have done ls-al /dev/com1 and I see the file. However, how can I verify that the device attached is receiving any data. Any idea? Any utilities provided to monitor the serial port? --Mona --- Brian Ford <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Thu, 15 Jul 2004, Tester Field wrote: > > > Hi, > > > > I have installed Cygwin on a Dell PC with windows > > 2000, and I am trying to sent AT command to an > > external modem attached on COM1. > > > > My questions are: > > > > 1) What do I need to do for cygwin to recognize > COM1? > > Nothing :-). > > > 2) Is there a utility provided for the purposes. > > Not sure. > > > My ultimate goal is to send SMS message using > Kannel > > and a GSM modem.

COM Port Question
Hi, I have installed Cygwin on a Dell PC with windows 2000, and I am trying to sent AT command to an external modem attached on COM1. My questions are: 1) What do I need to do for cygwin to recognize COM1? 2) Is there a utility provided for the purposes. My ultimate goal is to send SMS message using Kannel and a GSM modem. I understand this is not the right place of Kannel questions, however I will like to ask for help on Cygwin recognizing COM1 port. I appreciate any assistance that you might provide. Also, I have searched google without success. If any document that provides assistance, please provide me a link. Again, I appreciate any assistance you might provide. Regards, Mona - Do you Yahoo!?
