Why is TeraTerm not putting out the same bytes that are in the send call?

Using TeraTerm and a Serial port adapter I ran a Macro with this line on it:

send $55 $0B $00 $00 $00 $BB $42 $AA

The $BB was sent out as two different bytes instead of just one. I forget which ones they were specifically but the result on the O-scope looked like this:

55 0B 00 00 00 C8 E9 42 AA

Does anyone know why this is? I looked in the Manual and verified that Send8Ctrl is set to off and so is the Debug option.

Solution

  • Did the research, tested and verified that the answer to the question is that TeraTerm is using UTF-8 instead of English under the general settings menu. There are two options present that may be confusing so the two options are 'English' and 'Default'.
