rbala has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
Hi Monks,
I am using Win32::SerialPort API's to configure a serial network device which runs linux with certain set of device specific commands. For eg. config MODE=sta.
But some times, characters got truncated and only partial characters are sent. for eg. the above command is sent as config MODE=a.(st truncated).
Is there any better option available to avoid this solution in this win32serialport module ?
How is it that you know the data is being truncated?
Have you tried a serial port monitor on the windows side to see what's being sent out?
I don't know of a free windows serial port monitor that works on Win7/64bit, so I use aggsoft.com's product.
