I am trying to run a stepper motor controller via the usb port. The controller I would evaluate has a usb connection and the following description for sending a text string to the controller for programming the stepper motor.
"Measuring only 2" inches (50mm) dameter, the fully intelligent stepper motor controller + drivers are designed to be bolted onto the back of the stepper motors that they control. A single 4 wire bus, containing 2 power wires and two communications wires, links up to 16 such stepper motor controllers in a daisy chain. Commands can be issued from any serial terminal program (such as HyperTerminal) or from the EZ Stepper Windows application <http://www.allmotion.com/Windows%20App/EZStepper.exe>. The Commands <http://www.allmotion.com/Command_Set.pdf> are intuitive and simple. For example the command *A10000* will move the stepper motor to *A*bsolute position *10000*. (This communications protocol is compatible with devices that use the Cavro DT or OEM protocol. )." Is there a program or library in Linux equivalent to Hyper Terminal that will allow me to use the usb port to send the text strings to the stepper controller? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
