RS232 Data Logger is an Open Source application by Eltima that lets you redirect all received and sent data from RS232 compliant serial port device into a text file with the ability of further analysis, if needed. RS232 Data Logger redirects data from any available real or virtual serial port and fully works under Virtual Machine (VMWare). This freeware utility performs data gather from multiple serial ports simultaneously.
Resident Tray System software for barcode scanner or other serial data capture devices that have a RS232 or Ethernet interface. The program will redirect serial inputs from COM/TCP ports to KB buffer on your computer, as if the data were directly typed in from the keyboard. Features include: Debugger, run in System Tray, Configuration protected by PASSWORD, Macro Commands, Search and replace characters, can remove specific ASCII Characters.
To monitor (bi-directional) Serial communication RS-232 between two devices without physical cable, you can use the freeware Bill Serial Monitor. This freeware enable you to view, log, test and analyse the activity of the serial RS-232 port. If you want to monitor the serial protocol of two different serial devices you can use our Protocol Analyser function. DSR, CTS, DTR and RTS can also be controlled
Share Serial Ports is an advanced utility for sharing real serial ports between multiple applications so that all applications will receive same data from real serial port simultaneously. It is achieved by creating virtual serial ports, exact copies of real ones. All virtual ports can send data to real serial port. You will be able to set port permissions to read, write or change control lines state for every application separately.
Serial Port ActiveX Control is a powerful component that lets developers quickly and effectively work with serial port. Use Serial Port component to easily communicate with external devices on RS232 connection, such as modems, bar code readers, PBX and so on. Serial Port introduces several extremely useful properties for detailed setting of serial port, numerous methods to write and read from port and events to control serial port state changes.
Serial Port Mapper allows you to map any serial ports to any other serial ports. For example you install additional serial port expansion card to computer as COM7 serial port but your favorite software can work with COM1...COM4 ports only. To resolve this problem you can use Serial Port Mapper to map new COM7 port either to COM1 or to COM2...COM4. Now your software can open COM1 port (or COM2...COM4) but actually work with new COM7 port.
Shared Serial Port - advanced utility to share real serial ports between applications so that all applications will receive/send data from/to real serial port simultaneously. Shared Serial Port creates virtual serial ports, which are same copies as real ones. Any virtual serial port will have the same name as the real one and any number of applications will be capable of using it at the same time.
Create and manage virtual serial ports from .NET and Visual Basic (ActiveX)
Using Virtual Serial Port SDK you can create a "new" serial port on your computer. This serial port is completely controlled by your application. Other 3rd party applications can connect to this serial port and believe it is a normal serial port.
Windows Mobile/Pocket PC, Windows XP/2k/NT and Windows ME/98.
Samples in C#, VB.NET and VB6
Virtual Serial Port ActiveX Control is a powerful tool for professional developers that allows your application to create custom additional virtual serial port in system and fully control it. Created virtual serial port looks like real serial port for other Windows applications. From your application you can control data sent to virtual serial port by other applications and respond to them by sending own data to virtual serial port.
Eltima Serial Port Terminal is an ideal tool for testing, debugging and troubleshooting serial port devices. It lets you work with numerous number of ports simultaneously, both serial and virtual ones. You can easily alter baudrate, databits, parity, stop bits, flow control parameters and dynamically apply these changes to serial port settings on the go. You can always check for history of typed commands.
