Hello All
I have an application whereby I need to read the data from a RS232 port (telephone PBX) on two PC's. (but not necessarily at the same time)
I have a thought to achieve the above by 'clocking' the PBX data into a FIFO type buffer and have two pointers, which corresond to the two output ports, pointing to the last read address located in the RAM.
Could I have some which might be the best way to achieve this both in a hardware and software level - it's been quite a few years since I have used my electronic knowledge (remember Z80's!!!)
Are there multiport RS232 microcontrollers out there which could be used together some suitable, say, PC software to debug the code before programming.
Thanks in advance
