 Exporting data directly to DDE server or Excel page

Problem

I've just downloaded the trial of "Advanced Serial Data Logger" and attached my machine with COM port, and it successfully receives some DATA as below attachment. But I met a problem when trying to export directly to DDE server or excel page (also in attachment)? I have no idea how to do this, can you please help me to sort it out? Is there any instruction? I did follow the steps of the tutorial and the DDE seems not receiving any data. Please help me to solve this issue.

 

Solution

use the following settings: #02 (this is a hex code of <STX>) and #03 (this is a hex code of <ETX>). You should configure the parser. It appears that this tutorial is similar to your data format:

In your case you should use the following signatures of a data packet:


#02 (this is a hex code of <STX>) and #03 (this is a hex code of <ETX>).
