taking a snapshot of all communication data before and after the error message was received. Docklight manages a list of such data sequences for you and is able to perform user-defined actions after detecting a sequence, e.g. Or create a HTML file with styled text that lets you easily distinguish between incoming and outgoing data or additional information.Дetecting specific data sequencesВ вЂ“ In many test cases you will need to check for a specific sequence within the RS232 data that indicates a problem condition.

Logging RS232 dataВ вЂ“ All serial communication data can be logged using two different file formats: use plain text format for fast logging and storing huge amounts of data. problem conditions).Дocklight PC simulates Device1 to test Device 2 behaviour.

This makes it possible to simulate the behavior of a serial communication device, which is particularly useful for generating test conditions that are hard to reproduce with the original device (e.g. Simulating serial protocolsВ вЂ“ Docklight can send out user-defined sequences according to the protocol used and it can react to incoming sequences. Since then our focus has shifted more and more to projects in the industrial field, so that we nowadays concentrate on this area. The company was set up in 1998 as an вЂњOffice for Multimedia and IT Solutions.вЂќ Supported interfaces and connections are RS232, RS485/RS422, TCP/UDP,В Virtual COM, USB HID, Bluetooth (SPP or HID) and Named Pipes.Дocklight significantly increases productivity in a broad range of industries, including automation and control, communications, automotive, equipment manufacturers, and embedded / consumer products.Дocklight is easy to use and runs on almost any standard PC using Windows 10, Windows 8 or Windows 7 operating system.

It allows you to monitor the communication between two serial devices or to test the serial communication of a single device.Дocklight is the preferred RS232 terminal / RS232 monitor / TCP or HID device tester / IoT (Internet of Things) debugging tool for numerous software and hardware engineers around the globe.

In the next step I will show you how to use it.Docklight is a testing, analysis and simulation tool for serial communication protocols. I have developed a tool which I call the SuperSniffer, It allows you to analyze the data in a way so you can make more sense of the incoming message stream, If you have scanned the can bus before you will now that 1000s of messages are being transmitted and its not really possible to make out what's happening when just watching the messages come in. The actual arduino code can be found from the previously mentioned linkДЄlternatively you can use the Arduino Code embedded into the SuperSniffer's 'Arduino Code' Sketch toolbar menu. Note:The CAN-BUS Shield needs a custom library to be loaded from the manufacturer of the shield, which can be downloaded from github. In a nutshell, It involves attaching a SeeedStudio CAN-BUS shield to an Arduino UNO. I created a forum thread explaining a bit more in detail , In a previous instructable Ive shown how you can put together hardware to scan your can bus, the instructable can be found here.
