Hi STM32 users,

I need a serial terminal able to

1. Send file using ymodem file transfer protocol

2. Send hex (not ascii) text format

I was using hyperterminal but it can't send hex format.

I have found hercules but it doesn't support the ymodem protocol.

Is there a tool that supports both ymodem and hex transfer.

''Send hex (not ascii) text format''

 

What, exactly, do you mean by that?

Do you mean the ability to send the non-printing codes (values 0x00-0x1F) and/or the ''extended'' codes above 0x7F ?

Hi neil,

I want to send the following bitstream:

1122AABBCCDDEEFF

In hercule I did it as in attachement (look at attachment).

Convert HEX to BIN and send it

TeraTerm with its script language is quite useful for this kind of thing. It supports y-modem.

Also have a look at Docklight.

Hi Trevor,

Thank you for your proosal. Now I resolved my problem with teraterm using scripts:

To send the hex string:

Send $11 $22 $33 $44 $55 $66 $77 $C9 $E4 $D4 $54 $B7 $62 $9F $35 $2A

To send the file over ymodem:

ymodemsend srcfile

If there is another tool who can manage the transfer by simple GUI. It will more more helpful.

Thanks again.
