View 3 RepliesThere seems to be a lot of discussion around about handling exeptions when a USB serial port device gets unplugged. What I want to know is how can one re-attach to it once it is plugged back in. The problem is that if you unplug a USB serial port device the app doesn't know it has gone and remains convinced it is still open. I have to close the app completely before I can re-attach to the device. I need a way to force it to close/go away.

I'm sure the USB jump drive for example is like a mini-computer, so how do we do the same thing but with a computer? Is there any code in VB, .NET for this?

View 3 RepliesWe are trying to modify a program to control a usb relay device. Essentially what the program originally does is give you a series of check boxes that you check to make the relay fire. We tried to modify the code so that the box is checked after 5 seconds using a counter and an if statement. It works, but only partially, what happens is the check box shows a check, but the even that is normally triggered does not happen. [code]
View 4 RepliesI have a .net application running on a symbol mc75 (motorola) using the scanner. I am now trying to add functionality for the camera and I am running into issues.
To find the 'devices' you are supposed to use the library's 'available devices' function.
With the barcode it is symbol.barcode.devices.availabledevices and it returns two items (you can scan from the scanner or using the camera device) However, when I do the camera library it does not find any devices - symbol.imaging.devices.availabledevices returns 0
I can take a picture using the software on the mc75, so I know the functionality is there, I just can't figure out how to get to it programmatically..
I'm not sure if this would be this right place to post this, or even if I should go about trying to do it through my program itself or through the computer's settings on the final EXE file, but anyways, here goes.
I have a synchronization program that syncs my flashdrive to my home computer and (hopefully) my flashdrive to my personal folder on the school computers. What I think would be easiest, though, would be if the program was located on the flashdrive, and would simply "autorun" when I plug it in, instead of having 2 separate instances of the sync program running at school and at home.
Would it be easier (or possible) to code for that from within the program, or with the EXE file's settings?
I am trying to write a VB program to automatically detect and identify a particular device that will only communicate to my program when I have 2 or more devices plug into the USB port. One way of doing it that I can think of is to scan through the available port and do a write and read to identified the port. But that would take up a lot of time if I were to scan through say 5 available port.

View 3 RepliesHow can I create a simple application to send timed controls to an external device?
What I need is to create a very simple application that sends control signals or voltages out to an external device connected via serial perhaps. The external device will in turn trigger some electromechanical devices. There needs to be 24 independent controls each with a simple command equivalent to on or off. What is important is being able to control the timings of the on and off on each control.[code]....

View 2 RepliesI am trying to write a 'simple' program with vs 2005 that recognises my specific usb memory stick so that I can make windows log off or 'lock' when the device is not in any slot. I have found some ready code and I am trying to modify it for my needs. There compiling works but when it doesnt find any of the usb ports.It works by checking each port if it is a usb port and then compares the vendor and produck ID to the given. it seems simple enough but I cant get it to find the USB.
Here is the code:
I'm trying to access a device with modbus in VB or C#. I've been searching all over for a simple way to do it. I know that It would be connecting through a TCP Connection, and I know the address of the device. I need to read the input on it (whether of not it's on), and to toggle the relay on it as well.
