Title: Extreamly slow monitor output / solved
Post by: jarold@paylink.se on November 03, 2009, 02:05:25 PM
Hi, I'm using the monitor to record traffic between an external device and a program on the same machine were I run the monitor. I use a USB serial port adapeter which I also used when using version 3.5 of the monitor. I bought the new version of the monitor since my computer crashed and so on. However, now the display and I beleive the proticol file output works extreamly slow. Long after I disconnect the cable the monitor keeps indicating it receives data, like in 1200 baud. Same thing on both Vista an XP. The actual communication works fine but as it is I have no use for the monitor.
Any clue?

/Anders :)

Are you using the program on a x86 or x64 system?

x86 system. Same machine I used with version 3.5.

Please, download the new version of the driver here and replace the original file in windows\system32\drivers folder with the new file from the archive. Then, please, reboot the PC.

Please, let me know about results.

No luck.
One thing I find strange is that the status bar at the bottom always shows Bytes received: 1, and that will ofcourse slowthings down if interrupting on every byte.
Now when it finally has stopped it shows Bytes sent: 15, but when I received a message of 275 bytes it kept showing "Bytes reveived: 1".

Unfortunately, we can't reproduce this problem and solve it. Does this problem appear with other serial ports?

Sorry, there was obviously something I forgot. Since I last used aspmon version 3.5 some years ago, I also got a new version of the component I'm using for reading the port. Earlier version must have been using an internal buffer since my code is reading 1 byte from that component. I have just changed my code to use a buffer in which to read all bytes ready at once, and then ofcourse aspmon works like I used to see it.
Thanks

Is it possible you can send us your non-optimized application and we'll test our software with it?
