PuTTY can replace HyperTerminal for serial communications. It provides logging, a large scroll back buffer, and many other features. You are probably already using PuTTY for SSH and Telnet, but you can also use it for Serial TTY console connections.
![]() Using PuTTY for Serial
Jul 30, 2015 - PuTTY's copy and paste works entirely with the mouse. One of the manufacturing facilities I help support has some pretty old equipment (which is. PuTTY.exe -serial COM3 -sercfg 57600,8,n,1,N. I have a file called commands.txt with a series of serial commands I wished to be sent. I tried the following however it failed to work: PuTTY.exe -serial COM3 -sercfg 57600,8,n,1,N -m commands.txt. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Note: Using PuTTY is illegal in countries where encryption is outlawed. If in doubt, seek legal advice before downloading it. The Telnet-only binary (PuTTYtel) is unrestricted by any cryptography laws.
