hello,
I am using windows XP SP2 .there is only one PC and one
microcontroller connected through RS232 Port so serial port is being
used as a network connection. I am unable to know should i use full
modem cable ?
Use whatever cable is necessary to make the connection work. Are the
microcontroller and the Windows machine successfully communicating
over TCP/IP?
and what should be the baud rate and other serial port settings?
The baud rate and other serial port settings should be whatever they
need to be to make the connection work.
i am using "adapter for general dial-up and VPN capture"as my
interface.
