Docklight 2.2

Docklight is a program that allows users to manage communication between serial devices, which is quite useful when having to generate test conditions that are very hard to reproduce with the original device.

The program is wrapped in a decent-looking interface, composed of the main section area, a left side panel, a tab menu, and a few action buttons. The interface offers great response time to the user actions but it provides basic display options, such as a background color selector or text output. Not to mention that the menu icons seem quite small in contrast to the size of the program's main window.

As you start using the program, you discover that in order to function at the right parameters, the program uses a high amount of system resources which might cause your computer to freeze.

One of the most important features of the program is the way it responds to incoming data. Docklight allows you to build a basic simulator for your device thanks to an option that lets you specify user-defined answers to the different communication sequences received. In addition to that, all serial communication data can be logged using two different file formats - you can choose either plain text or an HTML file.

Last but not least, if you want to find a certain data sequence in the communication window, all you need to do is use the search tool. This way, the condition issues can easily be detected and diagnosed in order to find the source of the error message.

To sum it up, Docklight is a complex tool that can be used in various fields and which has the capacity to perform serial port tests, automate sequences. and diagnose problems.
