i have just tried Device::SerialPort as we need something at work to control set of video switchers over rs232.
I can send strings to a test device (a std modem) but I can't get it to send me data back properly. Sometimes i get the data as i should, but more often than not I get the command I just typed. I will attach the code in a couple of minutes when I can get back to that machine. I don't want anyone to do the work for me :), but please could i an example of a loop that just reads/executes a string, then prints the results. cheers On Tue, Mar 11, 2003 at 12:01:47 -1000, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > On 10 Mar 2003 at 13:31, David Cheng wrote: > > > Hi all, > > > > How to open, initialize, read and write to a serial port in Perl?
