i am planning on pulling live rate data from some manufacturing equipment using a red lion rate meter with RS-232 or 485 interface
http://www.redlion.net/Products/DigitalandAnalog/Counters/CounterRate/CUB5.html what is the best way to pull this data, using base OS utilities if possible? if coding this is most expedient, handing me a pointer to a useful information address is sufficient. i'm under the impression that openbsd doesn't support RS-485 interface cards. do correct me if i'm wrong here. cheers, jake
