Serial Port Control 2.1.4

Major Benefits:

1. Save a Lot of Time
   Drop a Serial Port Control on a form in any development environment and compare this to writing thousands of lines of code.
   
2. Events Support
   Simplify your coding! From now on you don't have to check what really happens again and again. You can write a simple, clear event handler for each event you want to service instead.
   
3. Works with Any Serial Ports
   Serial Port Control enumerates all serial ports known to Microsoft Windows (multi-port boards, ports on devices attached to USB, IrDA, Bluetooth, Firewire or any virtual ports).
   
4. Developer API
   
   • Using Developer API, your application can make any Serial Port Control configuration change that you could make manually in the Serial Port Control GUI.
   • Developer API is available in the following forms:
   • • ActiveX/COM
     • .NET Component
     • Borland Component
5. Tagret Groups
   
   • Serial Port Control is useful for different purposes:
   • • To control manufacturing machines via the serial port;
     • To configure network devices (like print-servers, routers) via the serial port;
     • To control a modem, connected to the serial/USB port or Bluetooth;
     • To send SMS messages to mobile telephone using GSM SmartPhone/Modem connected to the computer (Serial/USB port or Bluetooth);
     • To transfer files through a null modem cable;
   • Any other tasks where serial port communication is involved.
   • With Serial Port Control your software can communicate with laboratory instruments, navigational devices, medical equipment, modems, USB serial devices and other serial devices and machines in minutes.

1. General
   
   • Unlimited number of serial ports can be controlled simultaneously.
   • Powerful and intuitive interface to make serial port communications easy.
   • Delivers all the capabilities of the Win32 Serial Communications API and eliminates its complexity.
   • Works with all types of serial ports, including USB adaptors, Bluetooth, IR, or any virtual port.
   • Notifies your application when data arrives or events occur on the port, allowing you to monitor port activity and read data without locking up your user interface or implementing messy polling routines.
   • Performs multithreaded reads and writes with one simple function call.
   • Supports reading and writing of binary data.
   • Full buffered data transfer.
   • Allows to set up baud rate, parity, data bits, and stop bits parameters.
   • Gives full control of status line and handshaking states.
   • Comes with example applications (Visual Basic, Visual Basic .Net, Visual C++, Visual C#, Borland Builder, Borland Delphi).
2. Compatibility
   
   • Works with Windows 98/Me/NT/XP/2000/Server 2003.
   • Hyper-Threading Technology compatibility.
   • VMware compatibility.
3. User Interface and API
   
   • Serial ports are controlled directly from your own application.
   • Can be redistributed as part of your application.

Enhancements: Multiple open/write/close issue fixed.

Requirements: Windows 98/Me/NT/XP/2000/Server 2003.
