Assistance in How to Communicate to Serial Port

Hello, I am designing an Interface to communicate with RFID Device. My problem is that I cannot seem to get the data sent to loop back and be displayed back to a textbox that I have setup. The serial port pins 2 and 3 have been connected with jumper
wire so as to allow the data to transmit and return back. I have followed the example from an online source called "Simple Serial". Yet, everything seems to work except for the data return (received). Any assistance on the matter would be greatly
appreciated. My apologies, I neglected to mention that I am using C# 5.0 in Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate.

Hi,
Your issue is out of support range of VS General Question forum which mainly discusses the usage issue of Visual Studio IDE such as
WPF & SL designer, Visual Studio Guidance Automation Toolkit, Developer Documentation and Help System
and Visual Studio Editor.
Because your issue is about Serial Port, you can consult on ,Net Compact Framework forum like this thread:
https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/59db36ee-88dc-436a-9222-bb0b7f9acbeb/serial-port-communication-using-cnet?forum=netfxcompact for better support.

How send data to serial port from forms 6i

How send data to serial port to activate hardware connect.
The hardware is a drawer for cash the point of sales.

Andres,
I do the exact thing you are looking for,
I spool out a text file using text_io
the file will either contain a double ^G or an epson escape sequence, depending on the drawer type connected.
I then copy this file to the port using a copy function id d2kwutil
Works perfectly, but god knows how I'll do it if we want to run the point of sale over the web :)

Any way to communicate with Serial PORT using JavaScript

is there any way to communicate with Serial PORT using JavaScript ??
Dont tell me to do it in java because I need to this on client side not on server side.
such as when client pressed the button, a javascript function will be called and in that function I need to communicate with the serial port of that client... That action will not go to server side.

Is there any way to send a string of bytes to the serial port from the client side ?
Just a button on the web page that sends out stuff to the comport.
I was hoping to do this using java script also ..

How do I process serial port strings as bits

In response to my commands, my instrument is sending bytes to my serial
port. In one instance, 2 bytes are received. I want to treat these 2 bytes
as a group of 16 bits.
The VISA and Compatibility Serial functions return these bytes from the
serial port to Labview clearly labelled a "string".
Everything I can find in the way of Labview functions and .vis don't want to
do bit twiddling, bit swapping, and bit dropping, with "string" data.
I thought "hex string to number" could be used here, but I can't find a way.
The 2 Bytes in question can be represented as hex, but the data are not the
ASCII codes for the hex representation of a binary number, they are the
binary number. This "hex string to number" seems to want ASCII c
odes.
You can feed a hex number typed into a "control" box wired into "hex string
to number" and you get a meaningful number. You can feed the 2 bytes from
the serial port into an "indicator" set to read in hex and you get a hex
number that is a correct representation. But that is Labview handing them
around to itself. I need to get my "hands" on them.
I can't feed those same bytes that show up as a correct hex representation
in an indicator into the "hex string to number" or anything else, so far,
and get a number that is useful for further processing.
I thought "variant to data", but I can't find enough reference material to
understand how to use it. A boolean array seems like a bit of a weird
approach, so I thought I'd ask before I looked into that.
I'm used to dealing directly with binary numbers on the processor stack, I
call them whatever I want, and turn them into anything I feel like.
I'm sure I'm staring the solution in the face, but I can't find any way to
persuade
Labview to treat this "string" data as 16 bits.
I've got the 16 bits, which is better than not having them, but I don't have
much hair left.

duh, well I finally discovered the "Unflatten from String" function. A guy
just feeds in the bytes he's collected from his serial port that Labview
thinks are a "string", and out come lovely little unsigned 16 bit numbers,
or whatever other type of number he wants to turn the bytes into. And there
are great little bit twiddlers available after that, like "swap bytes", and
you can mask out bits with the logic operators, why this is fun. There's
nothing like being a moron...... fly me to the moon...................

How to access the serial port in Java?

How can I initialise and access the serial port for writing and reading data from it? Are there any code examples available?

I tried that and I tried compiling and executing one of its examples, the one below:
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
import javax.comm.*;
public class SimpleWrite {
static Enumeration portList;
static CommPortIdentifier portId;
static String messageString = "Hello, world!\n";
static SerialPort serialPort;
static OutputStream outputStream;
public static void main(String[] args) {
portList = CommPortIdentifier.getPortIdentifiers();
while (portList.hasMoreElements()) {
portId = (CommPortIdentifier) portList.nextElement();
if (portId.getPortType() == CommPortIdentifier.PORT_SERIAL) {
if (portId.getName().equals("COM1")) {
//if (portId.getName().equals("/dev/term/a")) {
try {
serialPort = (SerialPort)
portId.open("SimpleWriteApp", 2000);
} catch (PortInUseException e) {}
try {
outputStream = serialPort.getOutputStream();
} catch (IOException e) {}
try {
serialPort.setSerialPortParams(9600,
SerialPort.DATABITS_8,
SerialPort.STOPBITS_1,
SerialPort.PARITY_NONE);
} catch (UnsupportedCommOperationException e) {}
try {
outputStream.write(messageString.getBytes());
} catch (IOException e) {}
But when I execute this I get the error:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: SimpleWrite
What is wrong with this example??

How to take CameraLink serial port into use in VC6+MFC?

I'm trying to use the CameraLink serial port.
Developing environment is VC6 + MFC.
Serial port controlling functions reside in CLSERNAT.DLL. clsernat.h is included in the project.
Following code is used for accessing tjhe functions in DLL.
--snip------------
HINSTANCE hLib=LoadLibrary("CLSERNAT.DLL");
&clSerialClose = GetProcAddress((HMODULE)hLib,"clSerialClose");
--snip------------
The compiling gives this error:
error C2440: '=' : cannot convert from 'int(__stdcall *)(void)' to 'void (__cdecl *)(void *)'
This conversion requires a reinterpret_cast, a C-style cast or function-style cast
How the type casting should be made?
Thanks!

Hi Hannu
I'm a C++Builder programmer, the borland's c++ syntax is quite diferent but I think I can help you.
1- You could import the file CLSERNAT.lib in your project (in the VC enviroment), in this way you don't have to load the library yourself and you can use the funtion in your source code.
2- If you have to load the library yourself define pointer to the function in the DLL
typedef void __stdcall (*TFunctionInDll)(void*);
Load the Dll:
int IdentDLL = (int)LoadLibrary("CLSERNAT.DLL");
do the typecast
TFunctionInDll FunctionInDll= (TFunctionInDll)GetProcAddress((HINSTANCE)IdentLib,"clSerialCLose");
and call the function the usual way
FunctionInDll(NULL);
The typedef definition must be with the same parameters of the function in the
dll.

How to communicate between UNI ports?

Hi
I have a new ME3400 series switch with IOS (me340x-metrobase-mz.122-37.SE1), it has 24 fastethernet and 2 gig fiber uplinks
Now all the ports except fiber uplinks are uni ports by default.
So can't communicate with each other. Now i wishes to make them communicate while remaining in uni port-type.
On forums the solution is to declare them as member of community vlan.
My questions are
1) can i no shut the secondry vlan interface?
2) From which pool i have to give ip to my system either from primary vlan pool or secondry vlan pool?
3) In both cases i can't communicate with the default gateway i.e: the ip of vlan even the port is member of community vlan. so how to communicate them while being in uni ports?
The sh run of switch is below

Create two separate connection pools. Each one has its own url/userID/password to its own database. Example: If both are Oracle databases, you need the JDBC driver jar file in your classpath. You'll have to research how to create a connection pool.That is a pretty specific answer. Certainly inappropriate, for example, if the OP is attempting to just move records. Or compare records.
Probably ony useful if the OP wants to present to a client data from two databases. But since the OP said "communicate" that seems unlikely.

How to communicate over rs485 port?

Hi!
I'm wandering about how to make my cFP2020 module communicate over serial RS485.
A simple scheme for the first part of my application is shown in
the attached file. If I launch MAX, should I see the fp 301 and
401 modules as dependant of cFP 2020???
Moreover, has someone examples regarding this app? Thanks!!!

Graziano,
the answer to your question is found on this Knowledge base Article
Connecting cFP-20xx to a FP-100x
The only solution you have is to use optomux commands to communicate form the cFP-20xx over to a FP-100x device.
In order to provide you the best support we can, we suggest you get in touch with us by phone by calling NI Italy Tech Support at

Communicate via serial port/ethernet from client app

Hi
Is it possible to communicate between the client serial port and an Apex application?
(or from the application to an ethernet device).
I need to link an application to a weighing machine and send/receive information via an Apex application. The interface will either be a serial port on the client or the weighing scales could also be connected as a network device.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Kathryn

There are active-x controls that you can use (http://www.activexperts.com/activcomport/howto/html/).. Otherwise you could try writing a small java applet to do this on the client end, don't know enough about your requirements to offer more.. Does the vendor of hardware have a solution?
(Issue with this would be, non-ie browsers MIGHT not want to run vbscript or active-x controls..)
Thank you,

How can detect the serial port is active

I made a program. It can read datas via serial port. But the datas wont came all the time, so the other part of the program not need to run. I want to put before the "reading serial port" a detection about the serial port is get a data. So the reading is wont start before datas are not coming. Can anybody help me how can i solve this problem?

Hi Zoyo, if you use the VISA- VIs, the functionyou need is "VISA Bytes at serial port". It shows, how many Bytes are available in the input buffer. You can find it here:

How do I monitor serial port activity without first sending a command?

In my application I am sending a command through the serial interface and I want to monitor the response. The response is not instant, in fact it is a timeout response indicating the requested action did not work. How do I monitor so I can parse what is coming in over the serial port without necessarily sending a command?

You can always place a loop where you monitor the number of bytes at the serial port.
After configuring your VISA serial port session, you can create a Property Node to get the number of bytes available at serial port.
You can then process this information, for instance:
1. Establish a timeout because you never get a response.
2. Do serial port read if there is data available.
You can exit the loop with a timeout condition or having processed the data.

How do I use serial port read and show text, but not have it scroll off screen?

I am new-ish/returning amateur user of Labview and I am trying to edit the example VI "Advanced serial write and read VI" that is part of dev suite 2012. I need to use the string box to show ALL text received from serial port, always appending and only rolls off screen when more real data arrives at serial port.
What is actually happening is as more bytes (or no bytes AT ALL!) arrive during read time, current text rolls off the string box. Even when 0 bytes are received, screen is blanked out.  I am not very familiar with functions locations and even worse at understanding obscure references to functions, so please keep replies very basic so I can follow.
Just to be clear, I need the string window to behave like hyperterm does-always shows data and it is not pushed out of window arbitrarily.
Thanks,
Steve
Solved!
Go to Solution.

OK- lets start back at the beginning. I have a few questions...
WHy does incoming txt get placed at top of txt box and then scroll up?  why would it make more sense to input at the bottom and scroll toward the top. I have created this huge txt box that appears to be impossible to use.
I have attached example of txt boxes I have tried, and pic of VI I have edited. Bad marks for uglyness....

How to use the serial port

hello
I would like to know if there is other library than comm to use to establish communication with the serial port ..
can we do this with pure java ,I mean without the need of using any library ???
if not then what is the best library to use ???
any examples ??
I have other question
when i use the library comm
I use the public void serialEvent(SerialPortEvent event) to get my data
but that data comme line by line
is there a way to get all the data at once ???
than kyou in advance

There you go

How to access the serial port on sdk 3.1.3 ?

Hi all,
I know that accessing serial port is not possible on firmware 2.x for non jailbroken iPhones.
But what about firmware 3.0?
Apple has focused firmware 3.0 on accessories, through bluetooth or through serial port. So, accessing serial port should be possible.
But I can't find any documentation / sample code for that.
Would you please help me?
