Delphi has been used in some interesting engineering stuff! On 26-Sep-2004 Kristofer Skaug wrote: "You want mission critical? Consider the infrastructure for the Rosetta comet chaser, that will need to stay operational until 2014-2015." That is in the news a lot today (10-Nov-2014)...

Years ago I had trouble with VMWare and a Keyspan USB to serial device. I switched over to a Gearmo 4-port device (mentioned as #4 here: www.ctrlterm.com/related.htm) and that works well for me.

This is an interesting message thread and somewhat related to one 14-year client that makes (and maintains) tornado warning sirens (for cities, counties, and nuclear power plants). As you mentioned Lynn the Internet is not considered a reliable method of communication. What we might need...

There are simple tools (free and open source) and code for C and Pascal (Python hopefully soon) on this new page: http://ctrlpascal.com/picoscope.htm If you are an experienced programmer then this probably doesn't apply to you. But if you or someone you know is just starting out, maybe these...

A bit of progress has been made in the past year, as this new web page shows: http://turbocontrol.com/devoptions.htm

http://turbocontrol.com/gnuroot.htm I just updated the page above with a new example that opens a socket to a web page and downloads the header. Sure is nice to see what can be done with a linux app on Android!

I'd suggest you first try an easy way to use a PC: http://www.ctrlterm.com/custom.htm Once the PC works it should be simple to get an Arduino working. Best regards, Paul www.TurboControl.com

Gary, I've got a powered USB 4-port hub connected to my Nexus 7. I would think such a device should work for you.

>What is the ultimate goal for this? Since you mentioned C# please see my response (the 6th message) in this thread: :) http://www.control.com/thread/1294638212 I've been programming (engineering apps) for more than 30 years, and since I wrote www.CtrlTerm.com about 2.5 years ago it has...

Running a linux x11 GUI app on an Android device may have just gotten a lot simpler! GNURoot has been updated! See this text: "WheezyX rootfs type added - it has Xterms working. After launching it, use a vncviewer on your Android device or you PC to connect to it." Now I hope to get Control...

>> Out of curiosity, why do you avoid using Android? Android (and iOS) is *much* more complicated to program for than Windows or Linux. It is OK for a full time programmer, but it is a bit much for someone who tries to keep doing a lot of other engineering tasks. This page shows how simple...

All of the adapters I've seen have the same pinouts as a 9-pin serial PC connector: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_port Regards, Paul www.CtrlTerm.com

I think you've come to the right place! :) I've worked in a few different fields (doing software using the same tools for 29 years), but this forum has been the best place to hang out (and learn). www.CtrlTerm.com www.TurboControl.com - see educational monitoring project

> You might want to google COSY141 VPN router. Thanks for that info! I just added a link to it (#7) near the bottom of this page: http://ctrlterm.com/related.htm

I've added a circuit diagram (near the bottom of this page: http://ctrlterm.com/custom.htm) that Harvard provided to me (thanks Harvard!).

You can find a Modbus example program (and a screen shot) near the bottom of this page: www.CtrlTerm.com - communication troubleshooting tools You could use that to easily verify how to communicate with your flow meter.

The number 5 item here may be what you need: http://www.ctrlterm.com/related.htm
