Write An Application For Receiving Data (ascii Characters) From Microcontroller Through The Serial Port In Three Separate Parts
Jul 18, 2009
I need to write an application for receiving data (ascii characters) from microcontroller through the serial port in three separate parts. I've created three RichTextBoxes, but I do not know which commands I need to type. In first textbox I need to receive one byte... next six bytes need to be placed in second text box, and finally last seven bytes need to be placed in third textbox.

I'm trying to control a serial port device that both send and receives data. I can receive data quite happily from the serial port but I don't appear to be able to send data to the device. The device works perfectly as I can test it using putty, I open putty select serial and select 1200 baud, the device immediately lights up and can send and receive. However when the port is set up and opened in VB the device doesn't light up so I can't send data to it but can receive data from it. According to the instructions I need to send either ASCII 'X' Hex '$58' or Decimal '88' to make the device ready.
Code (VB Studio 2005) :-
Public Sub New(ByVal synchronisingObject As ISynchronizeInvoke)
ComPortUsed = My.Computer.Registry.GetValue("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESoftwareNJB", "COMUSED", Nothing)
PricePerTrack = My.Computer.Registry.GetValue("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESoftwareNJB", "PRICETRACK", Nothing)
Me.synchronisingObject = synchronisingObject

Opening and closing the port works fine, and as far as i can tell, the serial.write("blahblah") should be writing to the output buffer, but I am unable to test or verify this by reading it in. the commented "Receive data from serial port" and subsequent DoUpdate() function are where i am having trouble. It doesnt seem to actually be reading in the data if it is in fact writing it correctly.

What I am doing is creating an app to send and receive CNC programs to machine tools via the RS232 interface. At the moment I am testing the software with 2 laptops linked together through a cable I have made up. which all works. I have added a serial port to my form 1 and using the code below I can send and receive data. However with the send button I can open the comm port send the data and then close the comm port (No Problems there). With the receive button I want to open the comm port receive the data and close the comm port. The problem I have is checking when the app has finished receiving data so I can then close the comm port
Private Sub Btn_Send_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Btn_Send.Click

I have serial port object which continuously receiving data from weighing device, which sends data in 0001450= format (8 Bytes). I read about datareceived event, and implement that, but i must use Thred.Sleep to get all data and read with serial.ReadExisting. Does the ReadBytesTreshold=8 raised DataReceived event after 8 bytes of data??
Is there any way to cancel, abort, stop DataReceived event?

first post here at the forums. I am a complete noob when it comes to VB .Net, but I have done a lot of VBA programming and some VB6 back in the day. I have posted this question on two other forums (including the MSDN forums) and no one has responded so please let me know if I need to clarify the question.
I am (trying) to write my first .net app which reads/writes data to a device connected over the serial port. I have manged to get it to work to send commands to the device and receive the reply back, mainly using the info from this article: Beth Massi - Sharing the goodness that is VB : Reading from a Serial Port and Saving to a Database
However, I am having problems with updating the controls on the main form based on the received data from the serial port. Basically I want the user to click a button (one of six on the form) which will send data to the device, then based on the response from the device, the BackColor of that particular button, will be changed accordingly. I just am missing something b/c the button click is a different sub than the sub that handles the form controls update and I can't get the two to talk

Recently we have connected one bluetooth device which receive data from our serial device. The bluetooth device further transmite this data to a Windows Mobile which is bluetooth enable. Baud rate of whole system is 19200 with 7 data bit and 1 stop bit.When we send command to serial device through bluetooth device it is accepting the command and respond accordingly. but some of data byte of string is desplay as question mark (?).But in case we connect the serial device directly to PC, the string received is correct.[code]Response given by Serial Port is "?09?D03?A D?

If I touch the Power & Send wires together on a serial cable the program needs to count up by one. It is just acting as a counter is all.I have some code, but I cannot get it to count....It doesn't even appear to be getting to the SerialPort1_DataRecieved event....ok at this and see what I'm missing?

I am currently writing a console code that I will eventually create with a GUI. The problem I am currently having is that when a message I received to the port is an ASCII command code i.e. <BEL> <CR> then rather than printing these messages
it performs the command and I am unable to respond as per when the command is received. Is there a way to alter the code so I can see these messages or at least determine its been sent so I can respond to it?

I have written a program in vb to serial in data from my microcontroller and it is working good except for one thing. When I try to send the number 26 to vb it just reads a blank I dont know what is going on? The data that I am reading is being converted to int16, and I am using Encoding 28591 and have also tried Encoding 1252. I have also tried a new microcontroller with no success. I dont know if this is a VB problem or a microcontroller program problem.
Dim ReceiveBuffer As String
Dim portname1 As String = "Com5" ' Serial in through this port
Dim portspeed1 As Integer = 19200
Dim WithEvents COMPort As New System.IO.Ports.SerialPort

Im working on a HSD 32 bit data bus to serial converter via a microcontroller. Now first I want to make a sort of data sniffer to read the data bus (32Bit) .All on the controller side is working and the stream of bytes are coming in via RS232 as 4 bytes in HEX like FD,A5,45,8B . I already converted the bytes in Dec and ASCII to determine what is passed true the bus and how fast and stuff.. Now that is all correct and working very well if the LSB (least significant bit) of the 32 data bus is Data line 0 and the MSB (most significant bit) is Data line 31 but if that is not the case I need to invert the 32Bits (like as I would invert the connector on the bus) . How do I best do this using the 4 bytes I send from the micro controller.
Example:
(MSB) 01001000 01100101 01101100 01110000 (LSB)
HEX= 48 65 6C 70
DEC= 72,101,108,112
ASCII= H E L P
I need to invert it with a button to:
(MSB) 00001110 00110110 10100110 00010010 (LSB)
HEX= 0E 36 A6 12
DEC= 14,54,166,18
ASCII= (SO) 6 : (DC2)

So I have an ASP.Net (vb.net) application. It has a textbox and the user is pasting text from Microsoft Word into it. So things like the long dash (charcode 150) are coming through as input. Other examples would be the smart quotes or accented characters. In my app I'm encoding them in xml and passing that to the database as an xml parameter to a sql stored procedure. It gets inserted in the database just as the user entered it.
The problem is the app that reads this data doesn't like these characters. So I need to translate them into the lower ascii (7bit I think) character set. How do I do that? How do I determine what encoding they are in so I can do something like the following. And would just requesting the ASCII equivalent translate them intelligently or do I have to write some code for that?
Also maybe it might be easier to solve this problem in the web page to begin with. When you copy the selection of characters from Word it puts several formats in the clipboard. The straight text one is the one I want. Is there a way to have the html textbox get that text when the user pastes into it? Do I have to set the encoding of the web page somehow?

is it a bad idea to create separate parts/winforms of the same application (using the same SQL Server DB) in different executable files. For example for a School IS: A Receptionist App, A Teacher App, A Principal App and so on.

I 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.
