[PLUG] Finding a contact at SpiritOne

2017-12-09 Thread Bryan Linton
Hello plug@ I've been trying to contact SpiritOne since October 13th of this year (2017). I've tried contacting billing@, support@, as well as the two email addresses listed on the front page of their site (forrest at aracnet, and paul at spiritone). I've received no response to any of them. I

The Fluke example certainly sends the data to the screen. The example the sigrok site gave (sigrok-cli --driver mastech-mas345:conn=/dev/ttyUSB0 --samples 10) has --samples 10 tacked on. It is not clear to me which sw reads that. I tried changing that to other stuff but I just get sigrok help s

They called me when they wanted money. Their online bill payment is also broken, so I just waited to get a call. You can try mailing billing or support. I was told that those are the only ones that work. What a cluster fsck. On Dec 9, 2017 8:02 PM, "Eric House" wrote: > Hi, > > I was one of the

Hi, I was one of the folks who stuck with SpiritOne too long, but instead of email I had a domain hosted on a VM with them. It went offline back in September when all else went south. They're at least claiming that email is working again, but nothing's been said about VMs, and of course none of th

The loop-back worked. Running sigrok-cli --driver mastech-mas345:conn=/dev/ttyUSB0 --samples 10 w/sudo produced the same result as earlier--a 10 second silent delay. Should the results, ascii according to the protocol, appear in the terminal used to launch the command? On Sat, Dec 9, 2017 at 5:1

Try loopback on your usb-serial adapter. That is, connect pin 2 and pin 3 (tx and rx, or vice versa). Then run something like: screen /dev/ttyUSB0 115200 and type some letters on the keyboard and see if they echo back at you. If so, the serial cable is working. If not, you might need a diff
