Serial Port Monitor

Serial Port Monitor 3.0

Serial Port Monitor is a professional application for RS232/422/485 COM ports monitoring. It monitors, displays, logs and analyzes all serial port activity in a system. Serial Port Monitor is a powerful system utility for exploring the way OS works, monitoring how applications use ports, for tracking down problems in system or application configurations and processes. Advanced filtering, search and representation capabilities build a rich features list, which along with a user-friendly interface become its key advantages. Serial Port Monitor delivers maximum functionality for everyone who needs real power to deal with ports.

Serial Port Monitor can be used for:

• monitoring serial data exchange between serial devices and any Windows application
• debugging computer connection with peripheral devices using COM port, such as modem, mini-ATS, projector, etc
• solving problems with serial (RS232/422/485) data communication control networks and devices
• implementing, debugging and reverse-engineering serial protocol
• sending and capturing binary, ASCII and HEX data passing via serial connections
• convenient interaction with any equipment over RS232/RS422/RS485 interface
• serial devices drivers development
• development of hardware with serial interfaces
• software and hardware testing

Serial Port Monitor can be successfully used by:

• programmers and beta-testers
• quality-control engineers
• peripheral software developers
• OEM development and test engineers
• system integrators
• field service and maintenance engineers
• industrial control and SCADA design engineers
