Test RoboRemo communication using a terminal program

Picture
It it helpful to use a terminal program when you want to see what RoboRemo is actually sending, or when you want to manually send commands to RoboRemo. In the picture above, I use a program called netcat, running on Linux. In the RoboRemo interface, I set the button's press action to "button pressed", and release action to "button released". If you want to test a RoboRemo led item for example, just add it to the interface, set id to "led", then send "led 1" from netcat and the led will turn on. Send "led 0" to turn it off.
You can also find TCP terminal programs for Windows.
I found one here: http://www.ashishmyles.com/tutorials/tcpchat/index.html
There is a link in the introduction, where you can download a zip file. To run the program, you need to unzip it, then open cmd and go to the directory where you unzipped it, then write "javac TCPChat.java", then "java TCPChat".
