[comp.dcom.telecom] Bitview Data Line Monitor

Ken Mandelberg <km@mathcs.emory.edu> (04/22/91)

Bitview sells a data line monitor for $595. This is a handheld box
about the size of a breakout box, that monitors RS232 and displays the
traffic on a LCD display. It has an 8K buffer.

I've used fancy full size data analyzers before, and have found them
useful for tracking down all sorts of problem. Having a relatively low
cost portable monitor sounds like a great idea.

Has anyone tried the Bitview? Is there any competition?
