How to recognize Serial Port Device in Forms.
Hi All,
I am using Forms 6i. I want to know how to recognize a serial port device in forms. I have a requirement to recognize the reading of one serial port device into my form in my application and I have to store that reading value into database.
How can I acheive this?
Waiting for ur reply.
Thanks in Advance.

How to Use Com ports on oracle forms
Hai,
how we can use com port to communicate to the device like Pole Display(output device) or fixed scaneer (input device) having serial port(Input device) in oracle forms.
Thanks & regardsFor web forms you will probably need to create a PJC and/or use webutil and make calls to the device's API.

How to empty Serial port buffer ???
Hi!
I am having problems with serial port. I want to clear i
serial ports buffer, but i dont know how to do this. I am receiving NMEA data through that port and every now and then i need to clear it because there are too much data and i dont need them all. Could someone please help me?Hi,
Take a look at this link.
http://www.sc-systems.com/JavaDoc/Serialio.SerOutputStream.html
flush
public void flush() throws IOException
Causes any buffered data on the output stream to be written. Note: when using txDrain be advised that some OS's (like WinNT) do not provide a timeout on the OS level drain/flush call. In this case if handshake (flow control) is disabled from the far end your txDrain call will block until drain can complete. (i.e. until the handshake state changes). Because of this the default mechanism for flush is to watch the txBuffer. This will allow you to abort a stalled OutputStream since your code will not be locked up at the native level.
Throws: IOException
if an error occurs. Overrides:
flush in class OutputStream
However the above function and the class defining this is not provided by SUN.
I hope this helped.

How to abort serial port VISA from wating.
Hello All
How can I abort serial port VISA while wating for a byte to arrive.
Lets say I have timeout set for 3 min. but I want to cancel it before that , how to do it programatically?
I tried to set timeout to 0 while wating for data, and it works, but I do not like this method.
Thanks in advance
PawelHi again
I have made some investigations, and here is what I found:
None of Serial Port Brake nor Set Time out work while the "VISA read" is active. All property node can access VISA class only when the "VISA read" is finished.
Therefore, it looks like there is nothing I can do when VISA is active. The only solution is not to allow VISA read.vi to activate. I think I can use your idea and monitor the amount of bytes at the port.
I wanted to avoid it.
Thank you for your help

How to read serial port only when new data has been sent to it
I've written this very simple vi to read the serial port whenever the MKS Helium Detector sends a new value. The timing of new data is controlled directly from the front panel of the MKS instrument. I thought it was as simple as looking at the "bytes at port", and reading the port only if the value is not zero. The problem I'm having is that the read function is occuring whether I want it to or not. Consequently, the "Scan from String" function is returning an error (0) once in a while, because it's reading the serial port as it's being updated (I think). Apparently, when the port is in the process of being updated, it is not zero. Anyway, I'm assuming there is a simple fix, but I'm having no luck finding the Easter egg. Any help would be, as always, very much appreciated.

MKSRead.vi 55 KBYou can approach your problem in a couple of ways. The way you've got it written now, as soon as the number of bytes is non-zero, you read and convert. This means that when a partial string is there, you conversion is nor correct. One way is to wait until non-zero bytes like you do now, and then in another loop, read until the byte count is equal to zero and then do the conversion. You can also read until the cr\lf is detected and then do the conversion on the string. You can also enable the termination character for the read but then you'll have to increase the number of bytes to read to something other than just the number of bytes first available. If the instrument always returns the same number of bytes, you can use that as a constant for the VISA Read. Then the read will terminate whenever the byte count OR the termination character is detected.
I modified your VI to show you how you might put it in a loop and what for the CR/LF to be detected. You would want to add a timeout to this so that if the character does not show up, the loop will not run infinitely

How to read serial port and substring
I am new for labview .I send data from microcontroller with C languange every 1 minute this codeprintf("T%3.2f,H%3.2f",fTemp_true,fRh_true);
And I read data with Hyperterminal it show this T29.11,H67.88 I want to show 29.11 and 67.88 only and stroe in database. I study connect serial port in example and I have a question. If I use this code.Can I auto read every 1 minute or this code can read 1 time only and I have to click every 1 minute.How to auto read when I send data to serial port with microcontroller every 1 minute. And I cannot substring 29.11 and 67.88 because %3.2f can show T29.11,H67.88 or T129.11,H100 . and How can I simple send data to database. Thank you .No, you don't have to click run every minute. You just need to place a while loop around the VISA Read. You could use Wait (ms) but it would be better to use something like the Elapsed Time function and wire the time has elapsed output to a case statement with the VISA Read inside the true case.
This is one way to parse the string:
If you have the database connectivity toolkit, you can easily write to a database. There is also something called LabSQL.

How to access serial port using servlet
I want to communicate with a microcontroller connected to the serial port of my computer.
*I am using the following:
Windows 98 operating system
Tomcat web server 4.1
*The directory structure is as given:
Tomcat 4.1/webapps/myjsp/web-inf/classes/remoteservlets.
I have placed my jsp files in my jsp folder and classfiles in remote servlets folder.
**my java program has compiled correctly.**
** my simple java application which accesses the serial port works fine.***
*when I start tomcat I am able to access the sevlet as the servlet responds with the button name i have pressed.
**** I have also tried the following
Copied file comm.jar in <JAVA_HOME>\jre\lib\ext
Copied file javax.comm.properties in <JAVA_HOME>\jre\lib
Copied file win32com.dll in <JAVA_HOME>\lib and also in c:\windows\system32 and c:\windows\system
***************which helped me do away with errors.
still I don't get any output. I dont get any errors either.
PLEASE HELP. URGENT. i am at my wits end.
Thank you.Servlet is the one which runs in the server side...if u want to comunicate with the serial port of the server in which ur servlet is running can be done but making use of Communication api available....
U can download the Api from http://java.sun.com/products/javacomm/index.jsp
There are three levels of classes in the Java communications API:
High-level classes like CommPortIdentifier and CommPort manage access and ownership of communication ports.
Low-level classes like SerialPort and ParallelPort provide an interface to physical communications ports. The current release of the Java communications API enables access to serial (RS-232) and parallel (IEEE 1284) ports.
Driver-level classes provide an interface between the low-level classes and the underlying operating system. Driver-level classes are part of the implementation but not the Java communications API. They should not be used by application programmers.

How to remove serial port driver
Hi,
I am developing test driver for serial port. I can't able to remove existing driver (su) from solaris 8.
I tried "rem_drv su" and rebooted system. system does not came up again and generates panic (core dump). Could anybody help me regarding this problem.
Thanks in advance,
-MahanteshInstrument drivers are in the "LabVIEW\instr.lib" folder. Each driver should be in its own folder. To delete it, just delete the folder. You may need to update the palette menu to reflect the removal of the directory.
Also, what do you mean by NI installing the driver? Are you referring to using the Help -> Find Instrument Driver? If so, what did you enter in the search criteria? Leybold isn't even in the list of manufacturers. -
How to recognize s-series daq card in DAQmx Base 2.0
I installed the "DAQmx BASE 2.0", and then installed 3 PCI DAQ boards. It can recognize PCI-6024E and PCI-6713, but not PCI-6133.
I followed exactly the same procedure as in the document called "How do I use NI-DAQmx Base with PCI/PXI Devices on Windows?"
http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/websearch/9C4E9FD0C7469BC286256F100074EADC?OpenDocument
However, there is a web page (the link below) having labview example programs using DAQmx Base for "NI 6110 S Series Multifunction DAQ". So I think probably there is a way to recognize the S-series devices in DAQmx base.
http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/722DDAB4E914073D8625708100773677
Does anybody know how to recognize S-series device in DAQmx Base 2.0?
ThanksAlan,
Thank you very much for the quick response.
The reason I explored DAQmx: I want to do RLP and DAQmx Base has a simpler interface and more examples for RLP.
The reason I want to go RLP instead of DAQmx is a long story.
Summary of my applications:
I need to read 4 input voltage (using PCI-6133) and then generate 12 voltages (using two PCI-6713 each has 8 outputs). Since the 12 generated voltages are related to the 4 input voltages, single sample /N channel AD/DA is required. The speed for the overall control loop has to be >100 kHz.
Summary of my configurations:
PIII, 700 MHz CPU, 512 MB RAM
PCI-6133 and PCI 6713, LabVIEW 7.0, and DAQmx 8.0
I also have PCI-6110 and PCI-6024E cards for comparison
Summary for 4 channel single point acquisition (See the table below, AD only)
1) The difference between P3/700MHz computer and P4/3GHz computer is very small
2) The S-series performed worse than E- and M- Series
Spec (kS/s) Tested by me(700MHz P3) by NI engineer (3GHz P4)
6024E 200/4 15.7 kHz 17.36 kHz
6040E 250/4 18.9 kHz
6251 1000/4 23.0 kHz
6133 2500/1 13.8 kHz
Summary for single channel single point acquisition (See the table below, AD only)
1) The S-series performed much worse than E- and M- Series (simultaneous sampling is worse?)
Spec (kS/s) Tested by me (700MHz P3)
6024E 200/1 54.8 kHz
6110 5000/1 19.4 kHz
6133 2500/1 14.5 kHz
Simulated device 135 kHz
Summary for single channel single point AO (See the table below, DA only)
The spec of 6024E is only 10kS/s, but the loop can run at 132 kHz (the output from the port was not correct for sure). Using a simulated device (either 6024E or 6713), the loop rate is ~ 134 kHz (probably due to my low speed computer). This means the latency from 6024E devices is virtually zero. However, the latency from 6713 is way too much.
Spec (kS/s) tested by me (700MHz P3)
6024E 10/1 132 kHz
6713 1000/1 38 kHz
Simulated device 134 kHz
From all the above tests, it seems that s-series device (6133) and AO device (6713) perform much poorly in single point mode compared to E-series device (6024E). I thought the difference might be due to the driver in DAQmx. So, I want to try RLP to see whether I can gain up control loop speed to 100 kHz for my applications.
Your suggestions and advices are appreciated.
Thanks

Hi
Can anybody tell me how to access serial port of crio 9024. I have to transmit data on the serial port of the controller. This transmission must be through crio serial port and not through CSeries module.
Thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.Hello Rajeev,
This is an old post, and I almost missed the reply, but I'll see if I can help.
As you have experience with Hyperterminal, have you plugged the serial port of the cRIO into hyperterminal, and see if anything is actually be transmitted?
Does the LCD have a microcontroller that interprets the serial commands?
If so, do these commands have to have an explicity baud rate or termination character?
Consider looking at this example as a guide for troubleshooting:
Serial Data Transfer Between cRIO and Host
In the future, consider making a new post, and just linking an old post. Hopefully, someone can reply to you much sooner.

Hello,
I downloaded the Java SDK 1.3.1 and the docs today. I would like to write a small app that will talk to a serial port device and just receive the responses from it (much like a keypad). I'm not sure though if I need more then the SDK 1.3.1 or not. I see a "Communications API" that is avaliable but I'm not sure that I need this (dated 1998) or if it's included in the SDK that I downloaded. I checked the documentation but couldn't find anything.JustLee,
Thanks! I checked it out and downloaded it but can't seem to get the sample applications to run. I keep getting an error stating "noclassdeffounderror" when I try to run them. I guess I must have really messed something up becaues now when I just run my basic "Hello World" application I get the same error message.
Guess I'll keep toying with it. -
I have a question about Java commapi and serial ports. In my application I call close on a SerialPort object and associated input/outputstreams. Later on I try to open the port again by calling open on a CommPortIdentifier object and I get a RuntimeException with message "Device busy". If I close the application and start it again, the serial port is opened without problems. My question is should I do something more when closing the port to free it?
Code that tries to close the port:
inStream.close(); //inputstream
outStream.close(); //outputstream
inStream=null;
outStream=null;
port.close(); //SerialPort
port.removeEventListener();
port=null;My platform is Sparc Solaris 10.
Thanking you in advance,
AnguinusI know this is a very old post, but google came up with it after searching for ttyUSB0 and java, so I thought I'd chip in the solution so that other people arriving here might benefit :)
The trick is to go into javax.comm.properties and add the ttyUSB0 to the list of serial ports:
# Implementation specific driver
driver=com.sun.comm.LinuxDriver
# Paths to server-side serial port devices
serpath0 = /dev/ttyS0
serpath1 = /dev/ttyS1
serpath2 = /dev/ttyUSB0 # <--- added ttyUSB0
# Paths to server-side parallel port devices
parpath0 = /dev/parport0
parpath1 = /dev/parport1Works fine for me -
I already stablish communication with my serial port using VISA, selecting COM1 as the resoure name.
After that, I tried to read the data from the port (as we know the data was in string format )but I need to convert the data to numeric value to hadle it (no arrays).
Another main thing is that I'm develoing a new based Embedded design and tthe info that will trhow out from the device to the PC is binary.
How can I solved the problem, and if I want to make bidirectional communication with my system how can I do it? The VISA intructions as *IDN? and so forthetc can be recognize by the external system if the COM1 port is recognized by NI Max as ADSRL1::I
NSTR1?Hello,
For an example of bidirectional serial communication in LabVIEW, please see the shipping example LabVIEW <-> Serial.vi. This can be found from LabVIEW by going to Help >> Find Examples. From the example finder, select Hardware Input and Output >> Serial >> LabVIEW <-> Serial.vi.
Once you are able to read the string data in, you can use the VIs in the String/Number Conversion palette to convert the data to numeric format. To access these, right-click on the block diagram >> All Functions >> String >> String/Number Conversion.
Let me know if this does not help.
