Ok, I was able to capture the data w/ TeraTerm. I'll have to evaluate to derermine what was sent.

Sure. Essentially the data starts out as straight ascii, but then eventually starts sending SLIP encoded hexadecimal. The log file has some garbage in it (likely slip encoded hex), but unfortunately it's proprietary and likely I can't send it to you. But I can tell you it's full of a ton of <nul> and just garbage before it crashes. Here's the last line from the captured log file: (13:41:00.986) <stx><nul><nul><nul><nul><eot><nul><eot><nul><nul><nul><nul><nul>?钤???ő<nul><nul><nul><nul><nul><nul><nul><nul><nul><nul><nul><nul><nul><nul><nul><nul><nul><bel><nul><dc3...

Also, this pops up the "After the unhandled exception YAT will have to exit. Would you like to restart YAT after exit?" Which I click on "Yes" and that dialog closes, but nothing happens. Yat doesn't close. When I close it (using right click on icon and "Close window"), it closes. When I reopen, the com port reports: "COM3 - Closed - Waiting for reconnect". If I unplug the Usb serial adapter and rescan, then plug it back in, it seems to work again.

An unhandled asynchronous non-synchronized 'TargetInvocationException' occurred while running YAT.

Hey Maettu, Thanks for the suggestion, this worked perfectly! -Mark

This seems silly, but I just want to receive a binary file from the serial port. The formatter seems to want to make the resulting file ASCII Representation of the hex. What I want is actual binary output file (.bin). Something that I would need HxD editor to open, NOT Notepad++. Is this possible? I could convert my output (from the microcontroller) to iHex, but that seems silly to convert it twice (to iHex internally and back to .bin on PC).
