My project is to receive data from MRI machine, which has a com port can send serial signals. The data come thru pin3 of the com port and we want to save and read them on a pc. I've check the data with a spectrum analyzer and found the signal consists of 12 bytes in 11520 baud rate and was sent every 4ms. So I have been seeking software to save them. Can anybody help me fig it out or give some hints? I prefer to use RS232 to communicate.

thanks

I would be more helpful if you could say on what platform are you working at the movement? Its different to Linux and on windows!

Thank you.

OK, I here is a good link from microsoft, which walks you through on how to get started with the serial programming using win32 API.

This allows you to read and write data to your serial port. You might perhaps look for tutroila on "RS232 programming in C"
