DLE and ETX with RS232

I still have the problem to write my hex numbers on my serial port. I tried everything I found in the discussion forum, but nothing fits. I want to transmit data like "DLE E 0 DLE ETX" as hex (1045 0010 03) over my serial port. The DLE (0x10) and ETX (0x03) would not be identified by my serial port. I also tried to do this in Hyperterminal, but there I have the same problem. With "Docklight" it functions, because I can directly enter my hex numbers and 0x10 is identified as DLE. Now I hope I could do the same in LabView?!

Hello,

you have to enter the hex value of the control character into the write buffer when the write buffer is in hex display mode. For example, if you wanted to send "DLE" to a serial port, you would enter "10" without 0x into the write buffer when it is in hex display mode.

Regards,
