RE: Getting data from a scale to a system i host

Aha.  I'm beginning to see the light but it's still dark.

We want to pass a weight, 9.2 lbs for example, to the iSeries.  We're currently doing this with a keyboard wedge but want to eliminate the wedge.

Hiper Terminal is telneted to you PC, your iSeries Access session is telneted to your iSeries. What are you trying to accomplish.

Why won't iSeries Access for Windows (aka client access) running on a laptop, accept RS232 data from a scale?  HyperTerminal on the same laptop accepts the data.  Same serial port in both cases.
