Introduction
We have been busy over the last few months. We have worked on requested
examples as well as upgrading several internals in our website to better
serve you. Please read on for information of WinXfer, a new
offering that again came from your suggestions.
We are working on our .NET offering and will have good upgrade
pricing to our current customers when it is released. While still in the
state of flux we want your input. Please send your suggestions and let us
know what you want to see in .NET with respect to your serial/RS232
requirements. What languages are you using mostly? C#? VB? C/C++?
We began working on Windows CE/Pocket PC offerings but have temporarily
placed this on hold as most of you have told us that other areas were of
more importance. Our current intentions are to concurrently work on
Visit Our Website

We are very interested in hearing from you with regards to products you
would like to see us develop. Please email your suggestions and requests

of products are you developing? Are you interested in libraries for
application to application communication or application to server

We continue to cherish your suggestions and intend to tabulate your

New COMM-DRV/NT
Examples
We have added
several new COMM-DRV/NT examples. They are listed below.
|
CdrvNTVBExam.zip |
Visual Basic 6 example that illustrates usage including the nine bit
protocol and the multidrop protocol. |
|
CdrvNTDlgs.zip |
Dialog box DLL (user interface) for entering data required by
COMM-DRV/NT functions. It can be called from C/C++, Visual Basic, or
any language or tool that can call DLLs. |
|
MSigMon.zip |
Visual C/C++ MFC example application that monitors/counts the modem
signal transitions. It does it using the embedded counts in the kernel
driver as well as by counting modem signal events effected by the
kernel driver. |
|
ToglMSig.zip |
Visual C/C++ MFC example application that toggles either RTS, DTR, or
BREAK, at the frequency
that applied to the time interval specified by the user. |
COMM-DRV/NT Notes

-
Over the last
few weeks many of you have asked how long does it take the RTS signal to
drop after a multidrop packet has been transmitted. The test on the
oscilloscope on the right shows the RTS drop clearly.
COMM-DRV/NT's
response is less than a character time.
-
COMM-DRV/NT can
timestamp all inputted bytes to µsec resolution. It supports this under
Windows XP, Windows 2000, and Windows NT.
