Chapter 6 PComm
PComm, the professional serial comm tool for PC, is a software package under Windows
NT/95, which consists of powerful serial communication library for easy programming
in most popular languages, useful utilities such as diagnostic and monitor, illustrative
example programs and comprehensive on-line documents.
The serial communication library is especially for users who develop a system for data
communication, remote access, data acquisition or industrial control in the Windows
NT/95 environment, which offers an easier solution compared with the more complex
Windows Win32 COMM API.
6.1 Installation
To install PComm, please run \Setup.exe in the diskette.
Note that the MOXA Windows NT/95 device driver is required as using PComm
diagnostic and monitor utilities.
6.2 Programming Library
The serial communication library is to assist users to develop programs for serial
communications for any COM port complying with Microsoft Win32 API. It can
ease the implementation of multi-process and multi-thread serial communication
programs and hence greatly reduce the developing time.
For complete library function description and example programs for Visual C++,
Visual Basic and Delphi, please see help file and example programs in PComm
directory for more details.
