@davidwowa take a look on the script. its not a dumb protocol, you need to initiate transfer. easiest way would be to modify py script for your needs

thank you again, work just great for me (macOS, fs5000). BTW, is RadPro better? I think to switch too, but will need to order stm programmer.

The RadPro firmware is nicer but it doesn't really add any new functionality. I got a cheap programmer, soldered a 4 pin header to the board and the flashing was really easy. There's a python tool that will pull logs and stream live data over USB with a much nicer protocol that actually has documentation: https://github.com/Gissio/radpro/blob/main/docs/comm.md

Thank you again ) ordered stm32 programmer @ ali, will flash once it arrive. The RadPro protocol seems to be much easier, yes.

My solution which was needed for me in Java ->

if helps for others.

Thank's for supporting

I wanted to send the output from an FS-5000 to MQTT/Home Assistant for monitoring but I can't write python. I haven't been able to find a solution so as an experiment I asked an AI to modify this script to suit my needs. Much to my surprise it worked. I connected the FS-5000 to an old Raspberry Pi via USB. Here's the modified script, in case somebody else wishes to do the same:
