If you want an app that does this, check out Online at
http://www.markspace.com/online.html. You can program hex codes inside of
macros or memo pad records to transmit to the device. The new 1.5d2 version
also has a "hex terminal" mode where all data received is displayed in hex
and ascii on the screen as it comes in.
As to sending it in your own app, just pass whatever values you want to
send on to SrmSend - there isn't anything magic about non-printable
characters as far as those routines are concerned.
