: Wayne.B wrote in : I've built that interface circuit and it does work. Hyperterm definately wont do the job. Larry must be confusing Seatalk with NMEA. No, you can see the streams of Seatalk with hyperterm.... If there is NOISE OR RF INTERFERENCE OR SOME SEATALK GOING CRAZY Hyperterm will fill with graphic gibberish! You don't have to decode the Seatalk to see the crap in there with it.... Wrong. It's a binary protocol and the signal levels are inverted from RS232. There no ASCII characters involved in it. Read the document that I posted the link to in rec.boats.electronics. If there's anything readable, it's only by pure chance. -- Geoff www.GeoffSchultz.org |

: You might want to change yours so home.com quits getting your spam. Nope. I was a home.com customer on Comcrap. Any spam I can create for them befits the lack of service I was rendered. When did they come back online? Bankruptcy court know about that? |

news Larry, you're spamming a known and used domain. I'm doing no such thing. I don't spam anyone and I resent you saying so. |

An "odd event" is different from a program going "bang." I would be willing to bet that you don't do range checking on all of the data that you input from disk or a database. You'd lose that bet, but I admit that I'm unusual. I'm proud of the number of systems that I've given away to lesser (or no) programmers as no further maintenance was required. A couple of times, that meant that I had to find a new job, but most of the time I've been grabbed up by a different division. Two companies have paid me in 20 years (excepting a serious misfit I stumbled upon between the two). Anyone who can claim similar will almost assuredly have similar requirements (and accomplishments) to mine. -- Jere Lull Tanzer 28 #4 out of Tolchester, MD Xan's pages: http://web.mac.com/jerelull/iWeb/Xan/ Our BVI trips & tips: http://homepage.mac.com/jerelull/BVI/ |

Ahhh, but there is a GIANT difference between what RayMarine firmware is designed to do, and what your Multi-Million Dollar Investment Software, or your Healthcare software is designed to do. Bruce, I have no real disagreement with you or even what you were saying. But to some programmers, it doesn't matter who is paying the bills. We pride ourselves on writing code that any damned fool can run and debug after we leave. Because pretty much anyone that follows *will* be a fool. [Sorry for being so non-PC, but I know my abilities, and I really AM that good.] I'm most proud of the sub-systems that I've written that others have co-opted without *any* involvement on my part. I'm even more proud when none find a way to screw things up -- as long as they leave my code untouched. When they "adjust" my code, they invariably screw up. -- Jere Lull Tanzer 28 #4 out of Tolchester, MD Xan's pages: http://web.mac.com/jerelull/iWeb/Xan/ Our BVI trips & tips: http://homepage.mac.com/jerelull/BVI/ |
