Read From Serial Port And Parse Received Data On Event Serialdata.eof?
Nov 2, 2011
I'm having trouble with parsing an XML data from serial port.Actually I need to parse it automatically after all data is received from serial port.I can display all the data in a richtextbox control and all data is received perfectly but my problem isit seems that serialdata.eof function seems like it's not firing.
here's some of my code:
Private Sub frmMain_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
'set serial port properties
With COMPort
.BaudRate = 19200
[code]....
what i need to know is how can i automatically parse the XML data from serial port after all data is received.
I don't know why this is. I am using VB 2008.net and I am trying to receive data on the serial port.
For some reason, the following event is not executing. Here is the
[Code]...
Just simple as of right now for debugging purposes. I have a breakpoint at getMe and it doesn't hit it at all. I know for sure that the serial port should be receiving data as I am using RealTerm to monitor serial port input data before I run my program.
I am trying to write something through serial port to my device. Before that, I added the data received handler to read the data when the device response with some data. The problem now is how can i check the status of the data received event? I need to know when the data received event has started or has ended before I can proceed to do some other task like check if the result is successfully receive.
the problem I am having is probably mainly because of I am very new at VB.net, anyway, the thing is, I am able to receive data from microcontroller successfully. The format of the data coming from the Microcontroller is shown below
im using vb 2008 to read serial port data. my requirement is as follows, when the data is received from the serial port a timer is enabling in order to blink a button saying "tank empty". so i have written the code with the aid of this forums. but now my problem is the blinking button function is not working. first i thought its cuz timer is not enabling inside the serial_dataReceived event. so i invoked a dummy label. so the timer works. but its blinking function is not working.
I have the following code that listens to a serial port and writes the incoming data to a listview control (the serial data are a delimited string taht arrives once per second that I parse into separate listview subitems). I would like to be able to close/disconnect the serial port once a specific value in the incoming string is detected. For example, in this case one of the columns of data in the incoming string represents depth, I would like to close the serial port when the depth falls below a given number. I have tried the code below, but my program crashes on the SerialPort.CLose method.
dim m_strOBS() as string Private Sub SerialPort_OBS_DataReceived(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.IO.Ports.SerialDataReceivedEventArgs) _
I am current using VS2008 to write a little app to transmit hex data via the serial port to the target device and receive back data from it and display that on a text box.
The problem i am facing is receiving "read" data "hex" back from the serial port and displaying it. I am able to send data to the target system without any problem. For example, if i send this command "&H10, &H0, &H1, &H7E, &HFF, &H49" The LEDs on the system blink 10 times and it works every time. If i send this command "&H10, &H0, &H0, &HFF, &HD" i should get 5E back and I use Realterm to verify the communication and it works great. When i use my VB app it fails, instead of getting back 5E.I get "&H35, &H45, &HD, &HA" on the buffer
Private Sub sendbutton_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles sendbutton.Click Dim send_Buffer() As Byte = {&H10, &H0, &H0, &HFF, &HD}
I am writing a program to read data from the serial port using the data received event. But, I realised that My data received event run more than 1 time when there is a data received at the com port and this actually makes my reading command reads the wrong data. The correct procedure is whenever I send a "+++" over to my device. It should responses with "OK."message.
Why the DataReceived Event will read more than 1 time? Below is my coding for your reference. Public Class ControlProgram
I have a quick question regarding the serial port and timer tick event. Basically i have a micro processor connected to the PC via the serial port. With a baurd rate of 38400 set.When the PC sends the micro ":K + VBCRLF" the micro response with a string of information (ASCII encoded) and delimited with a "," and at the end of the transmission a cartridge return line feed is added.Example of sent string:
"12,1134,123,545,76,6868,34,232,1,2,3,6,7,8" These numbers are then split using the VB mystring.split(",") function into an array of strings, then the numbers are converted using ctype. After which my UI is then updated.I have Witten the code in a tick timer event using a timer count of 300ms. Although the program runs and the UI is updated i end it with lots of exception errors. I think allot of this is down to the serial port either timing out or not reading complete string.Or possibly the timer has not executed all the code before another tick event happens Even after adding a few try catch statements i am still having problems. Can anybody suggest a better way of doing it?I was thinking of using a do while loop and at the end a sleep function instead of the timer tick event.I need the speed as i am trying to read and display live data.
I'm doing a project and want to do a graphical interface using V. Studio 2010. I want to use VB.NET as a programming language. - Do I have to add any software to define VB.net? - What is the function that reads the data from the serial port? - If I want to receive more than one type of data, and I want to put/read them in separate text boxes, what is the function to filter the incoming data?
I'm trying to pass a data packet from the serial data received event.The code can capture the data without any issues.I'm spinning my wheels on getting the data packet out of the thread for further processing.[code]
i am a absolute beginner and i want to use vb to receive data from micro controller through serial port using rs232 standards, i found this code to receive the data serially, can any one tell me where should i paste this code, so that the data received will be displayed in message box.Private Sub DataReceived(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.IO.Ports.SerialDataReceivedEventArgs) HandlesSerialPort1.DataReceived
I'm looking to write a few lines of code that listen to the COM port and count the number of words (as defined by the presence of a start bit) received during a set period of time.
Private Sub SerialPort_DataReceived(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.IO.Ports.SerialDataReceivedEventArgs) Handles SerialPort.DataReceived Dim cnt2 As Byte
[code]....
For some packets I sent, "Error Data Received" came up. I checked BytesReceived, it was 0. My question is: since SerialPort_DataReceived processes data received, data was supposed to be received. Why the number of bytes I read was zero? BTW, when is this event accessed? it is accessed when any number of bytes received or the whole packet received?
I am using a VB.NET(VS2010) to read data from serial port. I have 8-bit data to collect through rs232. This data is represented numbers. What reading method should I use and how to convert it to double format?
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?
I have a problem with my program. i can't read any data from serial port. when i click on open the rs232 has to read but it doesn't.i use the program in a pdf(ADAM-4000_Ed-15).[code]
I'm new to VB, I'm now want to know how to convert received string to double. I'm receiving string like this 420.8 280.9 140.2 from serial port.. and transferred it into textbox.. I'm using following code to split string and to convert to double
I am trying to make a program in vb 2005 to real all the data from a device connected on Serial Port (Com 1).i did this: [code]and this is how i want to reciveit.when i lounch the program i only receive first line "410001+00000001" and after that i get on the device rs232 error.
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]
i am trying to write a simple programme to allow the user to open and read data from a RS232 port on a medical equipment and save the data into text file. Iam not a techie. I am totally new to programming save a few projects in foxpro(lol.....yeah oldshool).
I am constantly receiving 2 lines of data via my serial port, example:
GPRMC, 151243.000 , A, 3723.2475, N, 10354.0208,E,1.26, 290.95, 9.0,,,A*67 GPGGA, 151244.000, 0122.4098, N, 10354.0212, E, 1, 04, 2.1, 71.4, M, 4.3, M,,0000*5F
Apart from the starting 5 alphabets which is the message ID, the other numbers are constantly changing every second. I wish to pick out specific values from these GPRMC and GPGGA and constantly update their respective text boxes, how do I go about doing that?
The 4th, 6th & 8th values of the GPRMC message (in this case '3723.2475' 10354.0208' and '1.26')The 10th value of the GPGGA message (in this case that value is '71.4')
