I am using a IOGear GUC232A USB to serial adapter on a MacBookPro (10.8.3). Most of the time it works fine. However, recently, I started trying to capture serial data from a device that communicates using binary data. I have tried using several different programs to capture the communication to a file like:
- Minicom (installed via mac ports)
- ZTerm
- screen
- a series of terminal commands
stty and cat to a file
has anyone experienced receiving binary data causing the keyboard and mouse (bluetooth) to stop working? I assume something happens to the usb and that kills everything. The machine itself is still running but I have no way of intereacing with it so the only thing I can do is force a power down.
