Jaglink To Serial


swapd0

Recommended Posts

Hi, anybody have tried to build a cable to connect a jaguar using dsp interface to a serial rs232 port?

 

Is this possible? I think that having a bidirectional communication with the jaguar is a must for easy development. I've coded some routines to use the BJL as bidirectional port but they are very slow and buggy.

Yes, I did some time ago, and it works. Since I don't have a JagLink, I built my own TTL-RS232 converter with a MAX232 chip, but it makes no difference on the software side.

 

You should take a look at this topic for details. Sending data from the Jaguar to the PC is easy. Receiving data is much more tricky because of the Jaguar UART's hardware bug. I've explained the workaround I've used to make it work in the topic.

 

To build the cable, look there (the same cable is used to encrypt CDs).
