Data Scope

The Data Scope, BIN\SCOPE.EXE, is a suite of utility programs that can help users with system troubleshooting and serial communication debugging.

There are three major functions in Data Scope utility:

1.The Data Scope utility offers transparent monitoring of serial communication lines and allows data to be streamed to disk storage for later analysis.

2.The TTY terminal emulation utility allows user to view the signal status and transfer data interactively or files using ASCII, XMODEM, YMODEM, ZMODEM and KERMIT protocols.

3.The Diagnostic test utility provides port connection test with two MOXA ports connected via a properly wired cable.

Please see on-line help as running BIN\SCOPE.EXE for more usage and capability information.

Diagnose

The Diagnose, BIN\PCIDIAG.EXE, is a utility that can help users to diagnose the hardware condition of each port of the selected board. See on-line help for more details.
