Re: [time-nuts] Hyperterminal with variable baud rate

2010-11-22 Thread Joop
A friend of mine had a need for a round 500Kbit baud rate. What he did was use some FDTI USB/RS232 chip. He could patch the timing values for an existing baud rate (300 baud or something else normally not used). I believe in the Windows registry. This way the (terminal) software can select the

Thanks everyone! I ended up using comlog.exe from the Tom's Leapsecond.com website. It's a DOS program. Works great at the 955 baud required! I'll post details of the project soon as others might be interested. It will have a topic line of, Stand-alone Use of the FE 5650A or 5680A DDS board.

Hi, I am using a module from a rubidium standard to do some experiments. I am using a much lower clock rate into the module which has RS232 comm. At the lower clock rate I can't communicate as the corrected baud rate comes out to 955 baud. I can communicate if I keep the clock rate a binary

To possibilities come to mind: An old version (DOS) of ProComm might have the BAUD rate generator constants accessible. Some older RS-232 testers have adjustable (with a pot) BAUD rates. FWIW, -John = Are there any terminal programs out there that allow you to select
