I am using Python 2.5 on Windows XP. I have installed Pyserial and
win32all extensions.
When I try to run the example program scan.py (included below), or any
other program using pyserial, as soon as it hits the statement:
s = serial.Serial(i)
I get the error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Python25\Doc\PySerial Examples\scan.py", line 26, in <module>
for n,s in scan():
File "C:\Python25\Doc\PySerial Examples\scan.py", line 17, in scan
s = serial.Serial(i)
File "C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\serial\serialutil.py", line 156,
in __init__
self.open()
File "C:\Python25\lib\site-packages\serial\serialwin32.py", line 57,
in open
win32file.SetupComm(self.hComPort, 4096, 4096)
error: (1, 'SetupComm', 'Incorrect function.')
What do I need to do to fix this? Thanks for the help!

The example program scan.py (from the pyserial examples folder):
