Advanced Serial Port Monitor

Today we are all living in a completely new era. Nowadays, utilizing digital technologies is as natural as breathing and eating. This is why so many businesses turn towards digital products and solutions. The number of devices that can be connected to a home or office PC grows exponentially. The PC becomes a control center of various pieces of hardware: from MP3-players to industrial machinery.

One of the industry-standard device communications protocols is the RS232/RS485/RS422 serial interface, or COM port, for short. Creating devices that communicate with PCs via a serial port is very cost-effective, not to mention the amazing hardware compatibility. Most computers are equipped with at least one free serial port. However, developing hardware and software solutions that are built around COM port communications protocols is a challenging task without proper tools.

But, now there is: Advanced Serial Port Monitor by AGGsoftware, the unique serial port monitoring and data handling solution that allows developers to focus on their projects instead of battling the hardware.

Advanced Serial Port Monitor can operate in manual, automatic and spy modes providing developers with unique opportunity to monitor all data received from a device connected to COM port as well as send data directly to a serial port either manually or automatically on given time intervals. The application supports full duplex mode, which means you can use it anytime without having to close or restart programs already communicating with a device via a serial port.

Advanced Serial Port Monitor supports all possible baud rates, data bits number, stop bits number, parity and flow control types. Besides flexible configuration, the software supports plug-ins used to emulate various devices and expand software functionality. The application comes with a comprehensive help system and intuitive interface making it easy to start using it right after installation. So, why waste time? Download it now!

Features:
• Sniffer (Spy) mode. With this mode you can monitor data exchange between any external devices, connected to serial port and Windows applications;
• RS232 Terminal Mode. Our software isn't just a sniffer. Using the RS232 terminal mode, you can send and receive any data from a serial port to debug and diagnose your external devices;
• HEX and ASCII. Displays incoming and outgoing data in HEX, ASCII or binary formats;
• Flexible configuration. Our serial port monitor supports the miscellaneous baudrates (up to 921600), user-defined baudrates, number of databits, number of stop bits, different parity types, hardware or software flow control and other. You can change all communication parameters at any time;
• Sending data. With Advanced Serial Port Monitor you can send data manually (click over "Send" button) or automatically through defined by you interval (from 10ms to 10000ms);
• Any data source. Serial port monitor can send data from text or binary files. Also you may type data string in the program window. You can insert characters with code from 0 to 31 (0 - 2F Hex) from popup menu;
• Log files. The program can save all received bytes to a file (for example if data flow is very fast) and you can analyze this file later;
• Plugins. With our plugins you can transfer files, emulate MODBUS or ASCII devices, debug and execute scripts;
• Full duplex mode. Transmits of any data in both directions (from and to computer) in duplex mode (receive and transmit at the same time);
• Build in scripting engine. With this feature you can run Advanced Serial Port Monitor with predefined options and actions or execute commands from plugins.
