Virtual Com Port
Re: Virtual Com Port
@MrSwiss, Yes, I will conduct further experiments along those lines, but what explains the fact that TeraTerm works with the exact configuration. The problem has to do with errors in the function itself..
Re: Virtual Com Port
Excerpt from a Terminal prog. (written in, FB):port(p) and baud(b) are String-Arrays ...
Note: cs0, ds0, cd0, rs (additional param's)
I've used it, to communicate with a Arduino (on WIN 8 / 8.1 / 10).
Code: Select all
Open Com port(p) & baud(b) & ",n,8,1,cs0,ds0,cd0,rs" as #1

Re: Virtual Com Port
A common problem with COM port usage is the use of an incompatible connection configuration. For example FreeBasic enables data flow control by default, which is often not supported by devices.
Therefore I'd suggest to try the following connection string or slight variations of it, depending on the hardware you're connecting to.
If that works try to remove the ME, CD0 and RS arguments and check whether it still works.
