Does anyone know how to log F15 data from its serial port? I am trying to troubleshoot some issues with my Viasat card, which runs from a laptop on a local network and keeps freezing regularly with "Scrambled Channel" message. I know it's not my card that's the issue as using Vu+ Uno on the same network works perfectly.

I guess I need a null modem serial cable and some sort of terminal program such as Putty but is there anything I need to do on the box to start sending data through the port?
