Hi Every body, I have connected my device to serial port. I am using Javax.comm API to fetch the data from my device. On tapping of card i am reading data as below: newData = inputStream.read(); and able to fetch data : 0 128 161 132 132 132 132 132 132 132 101 65 2 226 99 98 132 132 132 132 132 132 132 132 131 134 164 132 132 132 165 134 132 196 230 167 132 132 132 132 132 132 132 197 196 132 133 132 132 164 197 132 132 198 103 255 How can deciper meaning ful text from it. My code is as below:
