Serial Port Terminal - How to send binary via X-modem?

Advanced Serial Port Terminal allows you to send any file to remote computer or device over serial port connection using X-modem protocol. X-modem is a simple file transfer protocol that supports basic error detection methods to ensure that information is not lost or corrupted during a transfer. Advanced Serial Port Terminal X-modem implementation supports X-modem-1K (1024-byte) packet sizes.
Unlike other Advanced Serial Port Terminal option, which offers transferring ASCII files over serial port connection line using data streams, this option provides necessary means to send any type of file over communication line. Strictly speaking this feature is useful for connecting two computers over null-modem line. Remote host responsibility is to be able to receive this file over X-modem protocol.

To send binary file over serial port connection do the following:

  1. Select "File" -> "New session" from the Main Menu to open "New session" dialog
  2. Select necessary connection settings to match the ones of remote COM port
  3. Click "Open" button
  4. Select "File" -> "Open port" or click corresponding Toolbar button in order to open local serial port if it is not already opened

  5. Click "Send via X-modem" Toolbar button

  6. "Open file" dialog will appear where you may select the file to send.

  7. New pop-up window will appear, indicating the transfer progress

  8. Once the transfer is finished you will get confirmation message that file was successfully sent or error message if any problems occur
