Nov 20, 2011I have very limited knowledge of any programming and am desperately trying to learn. I am attempting to use Visual Basic to create a simple program to operate our church's projector from the computer. I am able to control the projector using hyperterminal and accessing the serial port. I am wondering how I would code a button to send the correct signal to the correct port? I have a simple setup w/ my church logo in background with three buttons. There is an On, Off and Freeze button. I am simply needing to know how to program the buttons to access the serial ports. I hope I am being clear.

Send Data On Serial Port And Detecte It In Same Program?
Feb 24, 2011I am supposed to make a software for data logging via serial port but the hardware is expected to be delayed and iam required to continue with the programming of the software. What i need is that by some mechanism i want to send data on serial port (COM port) and after delay of some mili seconds i want to detect that data. I actually want to do this because i want to create environment like my software i intercepting COM port and on receiving data it captures the data values on port and record them to database. I have done most the work, the only thing left which i want is as above how i will send data on COM port (this was to actually to be done by hardware) and detect it in my program (same program from which data was sent). Please guide from where should i start.
View 3 RepliesCatching And Removing Escape Characters In A Serial Comm Port Program?
May 18, 2010I have recently developed a serial port communication program to access my hardware firewall and its connected to the device via a converter usb to rs232head plugged to a rs232 to an ethernet cable. this ethernet cable then plugs into the device console port.
my program functions similar to that of TeraTerm. an opensource hyperterminal program written in C++ but i decided to do one for vb.net
Alright to cut the story short, i have successfully coded out the program to accept incomming data from the device but however, i'm also receiving ansi escape sequence along with it and i have no idea how i could implement codes to remove these. i have spend 3 weeks trying to look for vt100 emulation codes written in vb.net but i found none so far. most are written in c++. here's an image to illustrate the problem which im facing.
The image below is a screenshot taken when the i ran both the programs together. The bottom is tera term 3.1 and the top is my vb project which i made using msdn's example and improved on the codes. basically tera term was able to interpret those escape sequence and display accordingly to that of the vt100 terminal display. I have spent time reading on regular expressions using the inbuilt function regex in visual basic and tried parsing some strings but its not working. i guess its far more complex than i thought.
Error In Serial Port Data Capture Program In Visual Studios 2010?
Apr 11, 2012I'm trying to make a rs232 serial data logging program, that accepts a 12 bit hex RFID tagID from an RFID module. My end objective is to save this RFID tagID into a database and assigned to a person for a personnel management system.I had to use button3 to add the value of the variable 'msg' into textbox1 because I was getting the following error "Cross-thread operation not valid: Control 'TextBox1' accessed from a thread other than the thread it was created on". It is a temporary workaround.When I do press button3, I get the incomplete hex number, instead of "4C00A2C82A0C", I get "A2C82A0C", and sometimes I get random digits like 1,A,C etc etc.

View 2 RepliesUnable To Close Serial Port After USB / Serial Converter Disconnected
Mar 28, 2006I have a stand alone VB.Net 2005 application that uses a serial port that generally stays open while the application runs on a Windows XP system. In trying to bullet-proof the UI, I ran into a problem when the USB to Serial Converter normally used to provide the serial port is disconnected while the serial port is open. In trying to handle the resulting error when accessing the port, I find I cannot close the port.
When trying to do so, the error message says something like "unable to close the port. You may not have sufficient permissions." Reconnecting the USB/Serial Converter does not reactivate the port.
