 Posted: Tue Feb 19, 2008 3:31 pm Post subject: VDSCOM60.DLL |
 |
|
I posted this on the forums at dialogscript.com, but I haven't had any response...
I've been trying out the new VDSCOM60.DLL, but I'm having a problem... Using the "terminal" demo, it seems that the commevent event never gets fired, nor can I get the @comm() function to work...
The comm command DOES work, though. I know my hardware is good as I can communicate using other programs.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Hooligan

I am very interested in the VDSCOM60.DLL but am way to busy learning and trying to get my basic things to work right now.
I was planning hopefully to tinker with that DLL next winter if I get some time then.
sorry.. |

I am now trying it out but can't get the COMM command to work.
My modem is on COM3. If I use:
| Code: | | comm open, 3, 9600, 8, N, 1 |
nothing happens.
If I use:
| Code: | | comm open, COM3, 9600, 8, N, 1 |
I get an error saying Invalid parameter to command.
Any ideas?

Hi,
The top one should work... Did you check to see if @ok() returns a true?

I got it working - thanks.
It was mainly a failure on my part to remember which modem commands to use, apparently. (Been a long time since I have dealt with analog modems.)
Also, it seemed to work when I switched to Sendline instead of Send.
But - all is well. Thanks.

I'm glad to hear it... Were you able to get the @comm() function to work? I have yet to see it work...

Yes, the @comm function seems to work fine. It sends me back the "OK" from the modem I am communicating with.
