Hi, to the target server, I need to send just two bytes, 0xBB and 0x83 You only need the HttpCli if you use HTTP protocol. Your device does not. It uses his own protocol (receiving 2 bytes - sending results). So you need to develop a simple TCP client program using TWSocket. If you need to

Not a WEB server, not a TELNET server, but still a server, if only a simple one. HttpTst, and the program I derived from it, as I understand things, sends a proper HTTP Get to the system of your choice. Your box is almost certainly both a web server (how you got and set configuration

Hello! With software supplied with the device, from a Windows PC connected to the same LAN as the TEMPerLAN, I can send a command to it. If the command is BB 82, I get back a short string of ASCII with some data from the device. (Temperatures seen by some attached sensors, but that isn't

Hello, One thing about SmartSniff (I use it for years), take care to use it with WinPCap as it may miss ingoing or outgoing datas depending your WinOS version. Also if you can't connect to IP addr of the device then it may not use TCP but UDP, this is quite usual with embedded devices.

Thank you, Dod... I think someone else had told me to use WinPCap under my SmartSniff... but I had forgotten. Sure enough, added WinPCap (I'm on an XP, SP3 machine), and now I see something that either wasn't there before, or I was overlooking it. When I use the software supplied with my
