Holger,

The only way to use serial ports successfully to me, is to use the unit serial on fpc, if I choose fpc to deal with serial ports. Another problem results from misleading comments on the implemented procedures and functions. As explained, seropen would return a zero, if a device cannot be found. For real, seropen returns a zero, if this device is found, and -1, if not.

Under the bottom line, it is embarrassing time consuming for a newbie like me, to work successfully with serial ports on linux.

Here is a very simple serial example using FPC and SynaSer:

Hope that is of some help.
