ScriptCommunicator is a scriptable cross-platform data terminal which supports serial port (RS232, USB to serial), UDP, TCP client/server, SPI, I2C and CAN. All sent and received data can be shown in a console and can be logged in an html and a text log.
In addition to the simple sending and receiving of data ScriptCommunicator has a QtScript (similar to JavaScript) interface. This script interface has following features:
- Scripts can send and receive data with the main interface.
- In addition to the main interface scripts can create and use own interfaces (serial port (RS232, USB to serial), UDP, TCP client, TCP server, PCAN and SPI/I2C).
- Scripts can use their own GUI (GUI files which have been created with QtDesigner (is included) or QtCreator).
- Multiple plot windows can be created by scripts (QCustomPlot from Emanuel Eichhammer is used)
