Kovach weycord!markk Weyerhaeuser Paper Co. (206) 924-6142 I have what is probably a simple question but have not been able to find a simple answer to it. I have an HP9000/370 with the HP-UX 6.5 operating system. I simply need to open an RS-232 port and send/receive ASCII data. Nothing complicated. I'm just going to use the port to talk with an analog mux. I've got the RS-232 expander cards to do the job on the system. I just need to figure out how to do the job from a software standpoint. Any assistance would be welcome. Thanks in advance.
