Private Sub Receiver( ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As SerialDataReceivedEventArgs) Handles COMPort.DataReceived Do '- Start of communication protocol handling - ' The code between the two lines does the communication protocol. In this case, it simply emties the ' receive buffer and converts it to text, but for all practical applications, you must replace this part ' with a code, which can collect one entire telegram by searching for the telegram ' delimiter/termination. In case of a simple ASCII protocol, you may just use ReadLine and receive ' in a global string instead of a byte array.

Oct 07, 2012 Serial Port not working in Visual C# 2010. (COMPort.BytesToRead = 0). (serial port), then I had to change to C#.

1. SerialPort in C# - Download as PDF File (.pdf). Control lines on an RS-232 serial port were introduced to provide flow control of serial. (com.BytesToRead >0).
2. This tutorial will show you step by step ways how you can perform serial port communication operation in your c# application with necessary code examples.

' Because this routine runs on a thread pool thread, it does not block the UI, so if you have any data ' convertion, encryption, expansion, error detection, error correction etc. To do, do it here.

C++ Serial Port

To do, do it here. Hello all, and specially engineerwolf. I've exactly the same problem you had and I'm getting crazy, I looked for solutions in many forums and reference sites and everything seems to be so easy but however it does not work.

I also checked that the serial port was in fact receiving data using hyperterminal. The hyperterminal was able to read the information in the COM port but the C# program was not. My problem is that the event 'data received' is never activated so the function ' serialPort1DataReceived' is never called. I put a breakpoint inside it and of course it never breaks.

I tried to do as you did, copying the lines // // serialPort1 // this.serialPort1.DataReceived += new System.IO.Ports.SerialDataReceivedEventHandler( this.serialPort1DataReceived); directly into the Form1.Designer.cs file, in stead of in my Form1.cs file. However it does not work! (I suppose that it is normal, in fact what I don't understand is why your project worked when you did that change. In my opinion it should work in the same way both if you write the code in the Form1.Designer.cs file or in the Form1.cs file. Can anybody help me? I don't know what more can I do. The situation is exactly the same than described by engineerwolf but his last change did not work in my case.

C Programming Serial Port

Thank you in advance! To explain why the serialPort1DataReceived event didn't work correctly (in either VB or C#). C# you saw you had to explicitly set the event handler (that is correct and the correct way to go about it). In VB (and ASP.NET for that matter) called AutoEventWireup. I uses a naming convention of the ID of the control (serialPort1) and the event Name (DataReceived). Just putting a delimiter in the middle. Unless AutoEventWireup is specified, it will not work and you will have to use the AddHandler method in VB.NET.

Write To Serial Port C#

The serialPort class does not work well with devices that only 'send' information and, at a fast rate, like a gps device that does not look for a reply before sending more data. For situations like this you have to use a timer and the ReadByte function off the timer to get the data. The SerialPort.Available will read 0 but the ReadByte function will still get the data from the serial port. The above is a problem with the.net serialPort class. Another thing to be carefull of is threadLocking. If you make a call directly from the the event to the interface/form you will lock up both threads and the whole application will become unresponsive. In this case you need to use the Invoke function from the Windows.Form class.
