Take a look at this in the archives: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/KPA1500-Static-IPv4-address-td7645170.html Maybe something there will help. There are ways to do it in a more secure manner. I'm not a big fan of exposing your $6000 amplifier with no security to the wild internet.

Not wishing to get into an argument but consider Binary-Synch, Uniscope or UTS400 protocols. They are poll and response, RS232c communications systems. Used from mainframe to (dumb) terminal. They are synchronous RS232 of course rather than asynch and so use the clock and other signals ignored

Andy, "Polling" normally refers to a situation like Ethernet and others where a response from a particular *addressed* device is requested. For RS-232, it is "handshaking" (if implemented) telling the DTE when it is OK to send data - since there is only one transmitter on an RS-232 signalling

Re: [Elecraft] KPA500 serial interfaces

2019-02-11 Thread Doug Person
I think the point is that RS-232 does not, as a protocol, support polling. Nothing prevents you from doing some sort of polling programmatically. However, multiple devices on a single RS-232 line is beyond what the protocol was designed for. That's why there is RS-485 - which IS designed for

"I have no idea how your "polling" device works, but with RS-232, there is no polling, " Point 1 is true. Point 2 is, in my opinion, not true. A poll is a request for information. The device issuing the poll/request is the polling device. For example, sending IF; to a TS-590 is a data

Andy, You are dealing with an RS-232 communications protocol, which is only point to point and not multipoint like Ethernet. I have no idea how your "polling" device works, but with RS-232, there is no polling, it is direct "handshaking" between 2 devices, a DTE and a DCE. If handshaking
