RS485

Hi,

As I'm using more than one brand of frequency converter, I'd like to
'standardize' communication with them by using RS485 in combination with
LabView. I've bought a RS232-RS485 converter and with the provided software
I can control my converters. Is there any way that I can 'listen' at my
serial port (RS232) to find out how the communication is done for each
Frequency converter?

Thanks,

Ron@ld

One way is with a protocol analyzer. Hewlett Packard makes a couple, but so do many others. Hyperterminal won't work because it requires a "direct" connection. You can't ease drop.
