unusal behaviour send tab ascii data versus hex data

[n3ykf]

Hi all!
Am trying to send a few bytes of hex serial data over a port. Having all sorts of trouble.
The problem is that when I use the send box on the send tab, formatting the data correctly (0x0A, for example), and send the data (while in loopback mode. i.e. the rxd and txd connected), it shows on the monitor when sent as ascii (the txd light flashes) BUT does not show on the monitor when sent as hex
AND the txd light does NOT flash on the rs-232 interface.
What am I doing wrong?
I'm in a maze of twisty passages all alike.

Probably the string does not parse as numbers.

V3.0.0.27 adds asHex button, for less verbose use of Hex

You need to post ACTUAL EXAMPLES, other with the passages are even darker and twistier for us.
