I am having trouble sending data to a comport..... I am a noob at this and have been doing my head in... I have done a fair bit to a few programs that I have on the go, but am stuck at sending some data to the comport...
I have in form1 put the serial port contol and added SerialPort1.Open() to that. I have then added 3 buttons that I was to use to send data to the port... Since this is for a radio scanner the buttons turn the backlight on / dim and off.....
LTN is used to turn the light on and works fine in hyperterminal.. I have got the port settings right in vs2008 but the code is wrong.
I have:
code:
Then I get warning of Name 'LTN' is not declared...
I have a program which will read data from comport when ever there is data on comport. I am using Comport.DataReceived event to do that.My program will receive data very frequently and it is working fine. The problem is, it will work for 3 to 4 days fine but after that my receive data will slow down. I am receiving data with high delay (about 10-15 min).There will be continuous data to my comport.
I have a barcode scanner which sends data to USB Port. I want to redirect it into ComPort. So that I can manipulate it. How can I do It in Visual Basic 2008 Or how to convert usb port to ComPort in Visual basic 2008
I have two issues I am trying to correct...First am trying to get my listbox1 to be the selected Comport used to do the send data and get data back.
My second issue is its requiring me to send two times to get my read data back as complete data and has odd shapes with the data I get back in front of and after the regular txt.
Beware, I am very new at this so please take it easy on me... Most help I did find was for older versions I only have the 2010 Visual studio Professional...
I'm trying to communicate through a serial port with separate subroutines for establishing the connection to the device and handling routine messages. I'm able to establish the connection, but reference to the COMPort in another subroutine fails with a message that the port is closed. I can successfully communicate using COMPort.Write commands within the connection subroutine, so I know that works. How do I pass a reference for the comport to other subroutines?
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load Dim hwrRequest As HttpWebRequest = HttpWebRequest.Create("http://www.example.com/web-service.php")
[Code]....
The MsgBox() at the end shows the response, which as I've added to my script, echos the result from the $user and $pass variables which are supposed to retrieve those details being written to the stream above, but they show up empty.
I'm retrieving those values by doing: $user = $_POST["user"]; $pass = $_POST["pass"];
I have a program that I collect data using a com port. I display that using special visual controls - no problem here.
What I would like to do is to send this same information out over the network via ethernet to another PC located in another room.
I presume I would have to have another copy of the program on the second pc as the information is simply duplicated but I am not sure how to get the data out of one to the other
Imagine a project with couple of forms and a module. Now as per my knowledge if i want to send some data from one form to another then :
- If I declare variable friend/public in a module then it can be accessed in the entire project (thus also between forms). - If I just have to send data from one form to another, then I can call the other form's sub/function and pass value. - If the pass value by reference then I can get new value only if its changed in that function.
Now what the issue is, I need to pass a variable to a form and in that form when user types contents in a textbox or makes other selection and presses OK button then it should return some values back to the calling form. Now how can I achieve this (without declaring global variables which will be accessible everywhere) ?
I have a very basic knowledge of coding, just enough to understand some PicBASIC Pro and program a microchip to send the values of some variables to a PC via the com port. I've used a terminal utility like Hyperterm to confirm the right variables are being sent, so I thought it would be cool to have a custom application on the PC to display these variables, and possible set them via the application by writing the new one back to the PIC. So I downloaded VB express 2008 - and whilst it was "simple" to draw a box and add a few text boxes I'm lost at how to actually do anything practical with it
[Code]...
Could someone advise me in laymens terms exactly what I need to do inorder to populate the text boxes with the data from the PIC micro. Whilst I understand the basics about BASIC, I have no idea on things like classes etc
I have a form that loads a UserControl which has a tabpage. Each tab has textboxes that I need to update when I create the tab page. I actually had this working but lost a major version of the code and can not remember how I did it. I want to send data to usercontrol this way from the form Do While
count <= intGrpSize With TabCtrlClient() .TabPages.Add(New TabPageEx) UC.SetSessionDate(tbSessionDate.Text) uc.SetCouncelor(CInt(cbProviderID.Text))
I'm not sure what I have done wrong, I am trying to get my program to send data (UsernamesPasswords) from client to server, then the server says if it's right or wrong.
The error is on this line: Dim networkStream As NetworkStream = TcpClient.GetStream()
Heres the Client: Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click If TextBox1.Text = "" Then MsgBox("You must enter UN/PW!") [Code] .....
I need to control a device with a GPIB port. I have the commands that I need to use to do this; but I don't know which is the sintaxis in Visual Basic.
For example if I need to send a instruction like "START:0.01" to the external device which are the libraries that I have to include?, how should I write the programming line to do this?
The main tasks that I need to program are sending data, receiving data, and saving data
im currently working on a program which prints serial text to an aplication like note pad. the problem im having is that i cant figure out how to change which serial comport is being used in code. i want the user to chose the comport with a check box.keep in mind that COM1 in my code is what i called my check box. here is my curent code:
Public Class Form1 Private Sub OpenFileDialog1_FileOk(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs) Handles OpenFileDialog1.FileOk Shell(OpenFileDialog1.FileName, 1)
I have a USB gadget that appears to Windows as a USB serial port, there is no special driver.I know the USB Vendor ID, and the USB Product ID, I need 1 or 2 functions:
Im connecting a infrared transmitter by serial port, Rs232 to my pc. Anyone know the coding for the comport to detect the signal and auto trigger a sms event(by gsm modem) ??????
I'm having a heck of a time figuring this out, the tutorials I found on the web are not complete or are for VB 6.0 (obsolete in some cases). On the C++ side I have the following ::
"Dromocast Client" is my visual basic application, and I checked to make sure it's not NULL. In fact I get made sure I'm getting some data on the VB side. On my Visual Basic side I have the following
[Code]...
When I send the data over it's garbage, meaning strTemp comes out as all these chinese characters, and my title bar on the visual basic program gets garbled with a bunch of chinese characters as well. My guess is my "SendMessage" is written wrong, or I'm doing something silly, but I have no idea what. I'm not a windows programmer so I'm kinda trying to figure this stuff out by googling.
I am currently writing a visual basic program that gets data from a serial port. everything is connected up but the data is not received until my device on the other side is turned on on the other side. which condition can i use in my loop to ensure that i only start comparing when i have started to receive so that my loop will not hang as there is no data input?
Currently I had write a simple VB code, my aim is when i click "Forward" button then the vb will send a character "A" to PIC, "Reverse" button will send "B" so I write my vb code for sending as below:
Dim Forward As Char = "A"
SerialPort1.Open()
SerialPort1.Write(Forward)
For the receiving part, after I received the data from PIC then I will show it at the label which act it as a screen. the receiving code as below:
SerialPort1.Open() receive = SerialPort1.ReadChar() If receive = "A" Then[code]....
I am working on system support for an electronics project wherein I have to receive an 8 bit (binary) data through a USB port and store either the binary or the corresponding decimal into a variable. How can I implement this in visual basic 2010?
i have a similar question so i thought i might post it here rather than clutter the place with a new thread, if that's okay.first off, i'm using VB 2010 Express, if that makes any difference.second, i'm trying to send data to form2 from form3 rather than the other way around. i'm still pretty much new to VB, but have a lot of experience in PHP and some in java. i'm making a basic program that creates critters on form3 and then adds them to a table on form2.[code]then adds a value of 1 to the progress bar (i still am trying to figure out how that works) on form2.
i have created a MDI form and i have a child form that collects data and inserts it into access 2010 DB however it does not work .my code is odd and i am trying to use mysql syntax here is the names and opject types used in the sql code
intID = a text field that is autogenerated with a number txtFirstname.text (text field) myDOB is a DATE variable which is collected using a date picker (myDOB = dpDOB.Value.ToShortDateString)
I am sending some data over a networkstream. The datasize is 97 The buffersize is 1. Data is a list of bytes. When the bytecount reaches 94 the do while loop exist itself.
I'm creating a search form using an asp:button control with the urlpostback set to a results page. The problem is, the asp:button uses Visual Basic and the search results from Google require Javascript.
Is there a way to take the data from an asp: textbox in VB and then send it to another page that uses Javascript and use the data?
Given the following information Public Enum Request As Byte None = 0 Identity = 1 License = 2 End Enum Protected mType As Communication.Request mType = Communication.Request.Identity Debug.Print (BitConverter.GetBytes(mType).Length.tostring) 2
Why does bitconverter report that mType is a length of 2. I would have thought that passing a Byte into BitConverter.GetBytes would just return the Byte. I mean it's no big deal because it's only sending a very small block of data across a TCP Socket, but I'm just intrigued why it thinks it's 2 bytes.
