Hi all,

Can you forward the VB6 code and details regarding that to me also? I am doing a project where I have to send data to a kit via USB port from the GUI.

Therefore I need this code. My id is kollu. kavya @ gmail. com
 
I had similar requirement and the following is what I did:
a) downloaded a VIRTUAL SERIAL PORT (VSP) from FTDI and installed on the PC (http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm).

b) Then, when you connect the USB instrument, I noticed an added COM port in the SYSTEM (COM7 in my case).

c) I, then, used MSCOMM1 in VB6 to communicate to the device.

Hi there,

I went to the site to download driver version 2.04.06. (It comes with the file "CDM 2.04.06")

However, when I run that file on my XP box, nothing seem to happen. What did I do wrong? (Or is there any configuration I need to do?) Please advise me.

You may email me: limchoonkiat at live. com

Thanks.

Also when I used searching Engine for the same titles I found this which is more more important for me, please send me this code for configuring the USB port through VB6
 
Hi Nisa,

USB - bluetooth devices are used as same as a serial port when you install your bluetooth device drivers.

So you can use it via MSComm (MSComm32.ocx) component with Visual Basic, it is not different than an ordinary RS232 port.

However, some bluetooth device drivers add two serial ports at the same time, one is used for sending and the other is used for receiving but it is a rare situation; most of the devices do receiving and sending in same serial port.

Hope this helps.

VS2005/2008 no longer uses MSComm, you need to reference System.IO.Ports. From there you will have access to the SerialPort object.

I use RS232-USB devices all the time.

MAKE SURE YOU GROUND THE COMPUTER TO THE DEVICE.

In a couple cases, I had to run a ground wire from the 15 pin video outlet across to the RS232 device. If the Ground is allowed to 'float', USB operation will be intermittent.
