| Summary: Simple tool for sending & receiving data from RS-232 devices | |
S-Jinn is a free, lightweight, open-source Linux application written in
C. It is a simple command-line tool designed for sending & receiving
data from PC controlled TIA/EIA-232 (RS-232) test, measurement,
and control devices.
Depending on your application you may be able to use stty or
C-Kermit, but I believe you will find that S-Jinn is easier-to-use,
more intuitive, and more concise in the area of command-line and/or
scripted RS-232 data acquisition and control.
Popular Linux communications packages like Minicom will also
communicate with RS-232 devices, but they are better suited to modems,
computers, network devices, etc. They typically lack support for any
combination of UART communication settings required by many of the
RS-232 test, measurement, and control devices on the market.
Most communications packages also lack command-line support. Some
provide scripting languages, but S-Jinn frees you from
application-specific languages. S-Jinn simply directs the data to
STDOUT where you can display it, pipe it, and/or redirect it to
be processed by your favorite Unix shell and/or scripting language
regardless of whether you prefer Bash, Python, Perl, Expect, or you
name it.
Other S-Jinn features include the ability to:
* Control RS-232 DTR and RTS lines from the command-line
* Display DTR, RTS, CTS & DSR status
* Send control characters (including the NULL character)
* Send values in hex
* Specify read length
* Set programmable delay times for both send & read.
* Support for virtually all baud rates, parity, and data lengths
found in standard PC UARTS
* Output Formatting: ASCII, hex, ASCII-over-hex, wrap text,
truncate lines, suppress trailing line feeds
