Hello
I'm trying to use an old fortran program that is hardcoded to use COM 1. I enabled the serial pass through and still not seeing any data out physical com 1. I see the following information in the dosbox.exe (the window in the background when DOSBos start up) window when the actuall DOSBox application starts up:
CONFIG:Loading settings from config file dosb
MIXER:No Sound Mode Selected.
MIDI:Opened device:none
Opening Windows serial port
CreateFile failed with error 2.
Can't find matching event for hand_caprawopl
When I try manually send data out the port using the following command:
copy c:\dos\test.txt >com1:
I see the following message in the background dosbox.exe window:
SHELL:Redirect output to com1:
Here are my .conf file settings
directserial=true
comport=1
realport=1
defaultbps=9600
parity=N
bytesize=8
stopbit=1
When I try run the application I don't see any messages in the background command window.
Any assistance will greatly be appreciated.
Thanks,
Mark
