I;m attempting to write code to read several NMEA ports and format the data for archive. When I execute the following code:
Using Commportno As IO.Ports.SerialPort = _
My.Computer.Ports.OpenSerialPort(portName:=port)
Dim Incoming As String = Commportno.ReadLine()
I have an older VB6 application which uses a scanner on the COMM port and does the following... (I have been tasked with re-writing it in ASP.NET (VB)...
OLD APPLICATION...
1. reads a Scanner and loads the data onto the PC
2. FTP's the data file to a SQL Server (where a small app picks it up and processes it)
3. Deletes the data from the scanner[code]...

View 7 RepliesBasically I need to send the hex command FA through a COM port.
I have added the com port and set the baud etc and all seems to be working well there. I am just a little unsure how to send the correct hexadecimal command. For example,
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
SerialPort1.Open()

View 2 RepliesWhen using the SerialPort component in VB.Net, and when the event DataReceived occurs, and if we assume that the com port read 13 digits (Bar Code), how to read the whole data received (i.e. 13 digits) while in event without letting the event repeats 13 times and write the 13 digits AFTER COLLECT THEM in a text box (I don' want to write one-by-one digit in the textbox, all at once)
briefly: I want to read the whole data from COM port at once and write the whole data (not digit-by-digit or byte-by-byte)to a textbox.
I know it is SERIAL port but I want to write the 13 digits PARALLEL to a textbox!
I'm currently working on a project where I am transmitting data from a comm device via the serial port and resorting the raw data (in binary) to its respective ascii values. The problem I'm facing is determining the most efficient method to accomplish my goal. Essentially, I have 68 bytes coming in, the first and second bytes represent the page and packet number and the data itself ranges from 3 to 64, the remaining for my checksum.
What I am needing to do is, grab 50 consecutive bytes per variable in my array, and that is where I'm confused. I have easily pulled my 3-64 bytes and stored that data to a string. I just don't know the most efficient method to accomplish my goal. Should I write directly to file all my data, as there are like 8 pages, of 128 packet data. [Code] I can capture the the first 50 by using a for-loop easily, but what would be the preferred method to track what data chunk I've taken? The more I think about it, I think I may just want to write to file, all my data, and then just take them back to back in 50 byte chunks. Is that the most efficient method?
May I know instead of using WriteLine(MyTextBox.Text) to send data to a serial port, how do I send character by character? Use BaseStream.Write?
Now:
Dim ComLine As Ports.SerialPort
ComLine.WriteLine(MyTextBox.Text)
I have a device which send me data over a particular port. The data is in XML Format.
Now I already did a small console application which listen for the data and print out the data on the screen.
Now my plans are to deserialize the xml data or I will create the insert statement into the database.
1) The device send me the data every second (if there is data to send me).
2) I cannot say how much data the device is going to send me.
How can I make sure to capture all data without loose any information..

I am trying to read data from serial com1 port. Now, I am not sure how to send. I found so many method to send but that are not so good and I cann't read any data. I am using VB.net 2005. Which is the best way and how can I read and send?
View 1 RepliesI need to write and read data from a RS232 port. On the RS232 port there is a RFID Card reader-Writer connected. So I need to send hex codes to the device, and have to poll every 1sec if there is a card in the system. If there is a card I need to read the info that is on the card. My biggest problem is I think is that I am not sure how many characters there will be in return after the read command (maybe it is always the same length this I am not sure). What is the right way to read-write to the com port. So I always got the same result and not skipping a code.

View 6 RepliesTrying to read data through the virtual COM port created by bluetooth.
The original console program (and the trimmed version below) was designed to read data from serial port COM1 and output the data to notepad. The program works; hook the bar code reader to COM1, activate bar code reader, swipe card, bar code reader beeps, data input collected from COM1 and sent out to notepad.
The problem: Bluetooth is wanted instead of serial cable.
We disconnected the serial cable, we connected a USB bluetooth receiving device onto the XP. XP installed the bluetooth device drivers 'Generic Bluetooth Radio' and 'MS Bluetooth Enumerator'. Bluetooth detected the bar code reader device and created COM5 outgoing SPP slave and created COM6 incoming.
But now; activate bar code reader, swipe card, bar code reader beeps, NO data input collected from COM5.

Using 2008 VB.Net trying to do serial communications. I have a Scantron scanner I can send data to it, but I can not get read data back sent to my serial port. I have tried ReadLine, ReadByte, etc. but i'm not capturing anything, and I don't understand the DataReceived event. [Code]
View 15 RepliesI should use the Timer_Tick function, to loop a data read from a COM port. The object i call uses a method that closes the thread after a fixed timeout.
obj.Read(N byte) //--> if no data come within 500ms close the thread
My question is: considering that the Timer_Tick function will be called every (for example) 100ms, How long does the total execution last? Timer_tick time + Thread Timeout (100ms + 500 ms = 600ms) or just the Timer_Tick time (100ms) causing the anticipated thread closure/crash?
