Is there a trick to archiving tapes to PC using Teraterm from a DSI NC 2400 reader/punch? Or is there a best software for this? From the terminal I can ctrl+Q to cause the reader to initiate a read of a test tape but I can't capture the output of the tape through the modem port of the reader into the serial port of my PC. I tried various things with settings.
I was told it uses hardware flow control. The reader is set correctly as far as I can tell. I am using 2400/8/n/1 but I have tried other settings. I get no response from the terminal inbound at all. I am using a USB to serial interface that I know works with an RS232 modem, but it may not work with the reader. If so, I'd like to know if anyone has a similar experience. It may not be straight forward and I have to make a custom cable. I will keep at it, report if I find the answers. Bill
