Screen on qnx   
Is it possible to run a terminal command similar to screen like on linux? I'm trying to connect to a device through a 
serial port and need to start a session, thanks!

You can use qtalk to start a serial session and you can use the stty
command to set the baud rate etc.

Re: Screen on qnx   
When I use qtalk I type qtalk /dev/ser1 and it says unable to dial : no dialing entry , and when I try qtalk -m/dev/ser1
 it will pop up with some commadns but I am unable to type any characters to communicate to the device, I configured 
everything with stty before I ran qtalk too, anything I'm missing?  Thanks!

If you are connected to a modem, then after you have run "qtalk -m
/dev/ser1", you should then be able to use the modem "at" commands to dial.

Re: Screen on qnx   
I'm using a null modem cable so I don't think any "at" commands are accessible to me, just a direct link between the 
devices

Re: Screen on qnx   
Well if you are running a terminal program on the other machine and you
type characters on the QNX machine, you should see them on the other
machine.

Re: Screen on qnx   
I seem to have no connection, but if I use utilities like cat and echo I can send and receive but i can't get qtalk to 
emulate a terminal for me, there are no other commands like putty or hyperterminal on qnx that I can try?  Thanks so 
much for your help

Re: Screen on qnx   
Well if cat and echo are working, your serial connection must be good. By
default qtalk doesn't echo characters on your QNX terminal, but if the
serial connection is good, you should at least see the characters on the
other terminal. qtalk is the only emulation program under QNX4, but I'm
sure that there are others in the community if you ask around.

Re: Screen on qnx   
Hi Will,

To provide remote access to QNX terminal via null-modem cable you should use tinit command.

Respectfully,
Oleg

Re: Screen on qnx   
in regards to using tinit when I do tinit -t /dev/ser1 it says missing '=' for macro

Re: Screen on qnx   
Is there some kind of putty port for qnx? or qtalk is the only application I can use for this purpose? I'm trying to 
connect to a controller via the serial port /dev/ser1 which I can do fine on a linux machine using putty or screen /dev/
ttyS0 9600, qnx doesn't have any application similar to this because qtalk is all quiet and won't send a thing.

Re: Screen on qnx   
I think that there is something else fundamentally wrong here. If, as you
say, you can echo and cat characters to the serial port, then qtalk must
work. If you are running at 9600 baud then run the following stty command:

stty baud=9600 -ihflow -ohflow < /dev/ser1

This will turn off hardware flow control. Then run qtalk again and see if
ti works.
