Send a file to a PIC
Morning (here!),
How would I send a small file from a PC to my PIC. I need to send a bitmapped file out of the RS232 port, and it looks like Hyperterm does not have a raw data output for a file. It looks like it goes through modem software.Can I use this?What type of modem do I pick from the list?Or...is there a better way?
Thanks,
Ron

I don't use hyperterm, but it has to do it... Did you checked the latest update?
Quick solution, convert your file in .BIN format, open it and then copy/paste it in Hyperterm or MicroCodeStudio windows.
MicroCode Studio serial communicator allow to open/send text files, sure any files will work. A .BIN is simple, while a .HEX allow easy checksums.
There's still the custom software solution.

It's not a bug, it's a random feature.
There's no problem, only learning opportunities.

I tried this link but it would not work for my PC. From a little research it looks like XMODEM is the way to send a file with Hyperterminal but there needs to be some sort of checksum routine on the PIC side. Does anyone have further info on this?Originally Posted by mister_e
