This is the standalone version of the Sealevel WinSSD diagnostic utility that is included in our SeaCOM, SeaLINK, and SeaMAC software packages.

WinSSD is a full featured synchronous/asynchronous diagnostic utility for Windows. For asynchronous serial troubleshooting, WinSSD allows the user to modify the default UART parameters, perform external loopback tests, toggle modem control signals and transmit test pattern messages. Included applications allow terminal mode operations, bit error rate testing, and throughput monitoring. When used with a Sealevel synchronous serial adapter, the user has full control over electrical interface, framing method, RSET and TSET source, transmitter and receiver bitrate, oscillator frequency, CRC, preamble, clock encoding, sync character, and more.

For more information, read the SeaCOM and SeaMAC software overview pages linked below.

SeaCOM Software
Microsoft Windows and Linux Asynchronous Serial Drivers

SeaCOM provides the tools necessary to verify the installation and operation of Sealevel Systems' asynchronous serial I/O products in Windows. The Windows Serial Utility Disk is included with each Sealevel Systems' asynchronous serial I/O adapter purchased.

Driver / Utility software on the disk includes:

SeaCOM for Windows
Windows enhanced COM drivers provide IRQ sharing, support for advanced UARTs (16650, 16750, 16850 and 16950), 9-bit data support, and Auto RS-485 RTS enable for Windows RS-485 cards without Sealevel's ULTRA hardware circuit. Advanced control panels and property pages allow specialized configuration options, further adding to the versatility of Sealevel products.

WinSSD Applications
WinSSD Ports Utility

The WinSSD Ports utility allows the user to select the COM: port number, set data rate, data bits, parity, stop bits and flow control.

WinSSD Applications
WinSSD Loopback Test

WinSSD's Loopback Test allows functional testing of any serial port on the system, provided a loopback plug is present. WinSSD provides a pattern test, an ASCII test, and a modem control signal test. Multiple passes can be programmed to meet the user's requirements. Loopback plug diagrams are provided to aid in building loopback plugs.

WinSSD Applications
WinSSD BERT (Bit Error Rate Test)

Multithreaded bit error rate test application for verifying serial port performance. WinSSD's BERT test can be used in loopback or point-to-point test configuration. This software tracks bit errors and sync losses while displaying transmit and receive frame counts, the number of bytes verified, and driver error statistics.

WinSSD Applications
WinSSD Terminal

Terminal program provided as a sample application that allows characters to be echoed back to the screen. A Hex check box is provided to allow typed characters to be echoed along with their Hex equivalents.

DOS - Serial Utility Disk
The Sealevel Serial Utility Disk provides the tools necessary to verify the installation and operation of Sealevel asynchronous serial I/O products in DOS and other non-Windows Operating Systems. The Serial Utility Disk is included with each Sealevel asynchronous serial I/O adapter purchased.

Driver / Utility software on the disk includes:

> SeaCOM for DOS - Interrupt driven DOS serial port driver
> SSD - General asynchronous diagnostic utility for DOS
> SLT - Serial loopback test program
> PCSSD - PC Card (PCMCIA) Diagnostic Menu Driven Program
> SEAPC - PC Card (PCMCIA) Client Enabler
> SSEnable - PC Card (PCMCIA) Stand Alone Card Enable Program
