Display Hex in PuTTY for Serial

Question

Does anyone know if there is a way to get PuTTY to show the hex values of what it's receiving over a serial connection instead of characters?

Answer 1

In initial screen

Session | Logging

Select All session output, then select save file.

After saving the file, use any hex editor to see the result.

Answer 2

You can try using the raw protocol on the session screen in the configuration. It will show whatever is being transmitted directly from where you're connecting. If the device/system you're connecting to isn't transmitting HEX codes though, you may need a specialized terminal program to translate the output to hex codes.
