Ubuntu :: Serial Port Emulation In Windows

Apr 5, 2011

I am trying to use one serial port simultaniously for two different programs. I have a two programs that use GPS information that I would like to run at the same time. At this time only one program at a time can access a serial port. I have found a way to emulate this in Windows so that I can have both running, now I'm trying to do the same in Ubuntu. Is it possible? If yes, How? The GPS receiver is connected via a USB port.

General :: Windows With Putty Via USB Serial Cable To Serial Port - Output Ok, Input Isn't?

Jan 13, 2010

I am trying to get two way serial communications going between a Windows XP system and a Linux system (RHEL 5).I have /sbin/agetty -L 9600 ttyS0

in /etc/inittab. I am using a generic USB to serial adaptor on Windows (Unitek) and a null modem cable. I have putty configured for 9600 baud, 8 bits, no parity, one stop bit, no flow control.I get the login prompt from agetty in the putty window but input does not work; I see weird characters in the putty screen. I can echo output into the device from windows and see it, but

cat < /dev/ttyS0. just prints out weird characters from what I type.

Programming :: Porting Serial Port Program From Windows?

Jan 8, 2009

I bought a set of 3 laser sensors and it came with a software and its C++ source code for windows to receive the lasers info through the serial port. Since the entire project is running on Linux, I need to port the windows code to Linux. At the present moment, I already can receive the data from each of the 3 sensors, but the info is coming concatenated! Tracking down the original windows code, I found that it is probably happening cause I didn't ported these lines to my Linux version:

Code:

COMMTIMEOUTS CommTimeouts;
[...]
CommTimeouts.ReadIntervalTimeout = 2;

[code]....

I've searched already about how to specify the serial port timeouts on Linux, but didn't find a solution. how to port these lines to Linux or maybe where to find more info about how to set serial port timeouts on Linux?

Ubuntu :: Displace A Serial Port To Another Computer Running Windows XP (sharing)?

Sep 1, 2011

I have a need to displace a serial port from one Linux computer to another computer running Windows (XP.) I am running Heyu on a Linux machine in a closet. The power leg for that circuit cannot let the X10 communication reach most of the rest of the house. Where it does work, is from my office but there I am running XP computers only.

I would like to plug the CM11A into my XP computer, share it's serial port and have the home automation computer (running Heyu and Linux) use the LAN to get to the XP serial port without Heyu knowing it is not a local port. Has anyone done this? Can I share a serial port in XP? Can I get Linux to map a serial port to a virtual one on another machine?

Ubuntu :: How To Login On Gnome/X Via Serial Port

Jan 16, 2010

I'm writing a point-of-sale application in Perl/Tk, to run on Ubuntu. For cashier accounts, I plan to just use normal Linux accounts. Cashier login will be done by scanning a badge with a barcode ID on it. Our barcode scanners are older serial-port types. Thus, I'd like to login to the X (Gnome) desktop, yet read the username (and password) via a serial port such as /dev/ttyS0.

Software :: Resetting A Serial Port ?

Mar 23, 2009

I communication with different subsystems using serial port. In some subsystems after running for a while, I start getting invalid data inspite of system sending correct data. For dealing with this situation I used to
reset serial ports by closing and reopening serial port, it was doing the trick but somehow when I have implemented this in my new application, this also doesn't work.

void CPort::

The ClosePort function invokes close system call.

some other way to reset serial port in Linux? I am using RHEL 4, C++ and Qt 4.2.1 for my application development. Also I have used multithreading to implement each subsystem in a separate thread. Its strange that if A,B,C are three threads, A & B run fine together but when C is introduced B starts receiving invalid data after sometime and never recovers even after resetting the port as mentioned above.

Programming :: C - Serial Port Won't Open?

Sep 1, 2010

I'm using C serial in a program to open and use a serial port but the port won't open for one reason or another. The program successfully runs on a different computer and when using RealTerm: Serial Capture Program, I can connect through the serial port with the same settings as I'm attempting through my c code. Anyone have any idea why it might be failing? I know this is still pretty vague, so let me know if there's other things I can tell you that might help to finding a solution

Ubuntu :: Open The COM1 Port To Do Serial Communication Via PHP?

Mar 15, 2010

Not really sure where to post this, so here goes... I installed apache2, php and MySQL via LAMP and everything seems to work fine but when I try to open the COM1 port to do serial communication via PHP, I get a permission denied error.

'mode com1: BAUD=9600 PARITY=N data=8 stop=1 xon=off';
$fp=fopen("COM1:","w+");

I've also tried using /dev/ttyS0 instead of COM1: but no luck. Anyone out there know what I'm doing wrong? I don't know if I need to set something up in apache2 or php or if the code is just wrong. I'm on an Acer Aspire One with Ubuntu's LNR 9.10.

Ubuntu :: Serial Port Read, Write After DTR Toggle In C++?

Mar 31, 2011

I need to read and write to a serial device. When I connect via gtkterm, I need to toggle DTR before I can communicate with the device . My problem is that I cannot emulate this in C++.

I want to write some code that can setup a comport, toggle the DTR, then read and write strings to the port. However all my attempts have been fruitless. My serial settings are B9600, No parity, no hardware control, 8 bt characters and 1 stop bit:

Code:
#include <iostream>
#include <SerialStream.h>
#include <sys/ioctl.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
using namespace LibSerial;
