Serial Data

[chomps303]

I have ascii reports that are generated from our telephone system. At a specified time the reports are sent out a RS232 serial port. I need to have my com1 port on my SCO box receive te data and save it to a file.

How can I open the com1 port? Does anyone have a script. I would prefer not to have to use a 3rd party comm program ie: Term.

Thanks in advance

The device for the COM1 port is either /dev/tty1a or /dev/tty1A

Hope This Helps, PH.
