Have you already written web applications to render real time data in graphs? The data (relay outputs) are captured by a microprocessor and sent via RS232 to a Raspberry PI running Linux. The data are time stamped (count of milliseconds). The goal is to display the data in a graph with the time as X axis and the relays states as Y axis. There are several relays on a graph. The graph m...

Hello, I am working on a design that requires interfacing a PIC microcontroller to the rs232 serial port of a PC. I am using the UART of the PIC16F628 but I am having problems: I can not get my PC to recognize the serial data sent by my PIC. For testing purposes I hooked up a palm pilot to my PC serial port and tried to echo characters using Hyper Terminal - it worked fine. However I ca...

Hi I need to control a TI 16C752 directly. My question is when the FIFO is enabled ( it has 64 bytes TX/RX FIFO). The interrupt level can be set with 8 bytes or 16 bytes, which means only when the data in FIFO reaches this level, an interrupt will be generated. How can I read the last bytes if there is no interrupt to triggered the main program? Some senario: The interrupt level is s...

I am building a Remote Large Display for a weighing machine. The weighing machine continuously send out readout data of the weight it measures via an RS-232 port, which I intend to connect to my 89C51-controlled 5 digit 7-segment display. Unfortunately, the weighing machine can only communicate in 2400Bps 7-bit even parity format. I have tested my display successfully with Hyperterminal program...

We have a VB and C# app using MSCOMM and it works perfectly. Now I have added an Ethernet converter to convert serial data to TCP/ IP packets. It works atleast for half of the time. For the rest of the problematic half the behavior i...

You remember about 5 years ago, PC's had serial ports and parallel ports. Right now I've got a laptop and it only has USB. I've been looking around for some sort of adapter device for converting USB to DE9 for serial ports, and also USB to DB25 for parallel ports.

I'm trying to connect a Windows PC to an embedded system via an RS232 link implementing SLIP. Ultimately I'll have a web server running on the embedded system. It seems that the only way to do this at the Windows end is to configure a dial-up with SLIP selected and pointing to an imaginary modem on COM1/2. At the embedded end I need to mimic the behaviour of a modem until the connection...
