Virtual Serial Port. Serial Data Filtering and GPS Tracking.

Serial Data Filtering. Here is the recent case study throughly discussed at most tech forums : “Image Systems are a medium sized company who are leaders in CCTV and Point of Sale integration in New Zealand. The current solutions offered by POS providers and CCTV data capture solutions Image Systems found were limited in their functionality. Using data capture via serial ports,a system to filter out unwanted data was created”. Using Virtual Serial Port Control OEM Image Systems Limited reduced the amount of hardware which is needed to filter out the data from the POS system. This has decreased time to market and decreased the cost to develop further. The Virtual Serial Port Control OEM has been included into new software using Microsoft Visual Studio 2005, written using the C# programming language.

USB Monitor – the one and only solution to analyze USB traffic!

USB protocol capturing, decoding, displaying, filtering, errors detecting and much more what cannot be done by others. USB Monitor Pro is an effective and simple in use analyzer of USB traffic for Windows. It allows to monitor incoming and outgoing data of a USB device plugged into the computer.  It’s an indispensable tool for a developer of firmware and drivers for USB devices, expanding developer’s arsenal.

Virtual Null-Modem Cable over Network

Network Serial Port Kit can easily create virtual null-modem connections over network. In other words, you can connect two communications applications running on different computers by means of virtual null-modem cable over network.

Virtual Serial Ports. Network Serial Port Kit.

Here is a real problem some people faced once: “We are developing a satellite terminal controlled through serial communication. We currently have four demo and test units located on the roof our facility connected to a local PC host. In order to market and test our device we need to access the terminal from remote locations. For example, when performing demonstrations for customers it would be beneficial to have real time access to the terminals located on our roof. This would allow for various representatives around the world to present and interact with our most up to date product whenever needed. Furthermore, some software development is done offsite. Again, having remote access to a centraly located device would allow everyone involved on new upgrades, both on and offsite, to work on the same physical device”

Such problem can be saved with the serial to ethernet solution. Network Serial Port Kit shares physical serial port with a connected device and then accesses this device from any other computer over local network or the Internet. Virtual serial port is created on the computer from which you want to access the serial device and it’s the exact copy of the remote physical serial port with the connected device. Data is forwarded over the network from the physical serial port to the virtual serial port and vice versa. An application on the local computer works with the serial device via the virtual serial port as if it was plugged into this very local computer.

Terminal Server. USB for Remote Desktop.

Task: access local USB devices in Terminal Server. I am fortunate in that I get to work from home on a fairly regular basis. My job relies on my being able to connect via VPN into the Company intranet. I run a lot of software on my work computer that is bandwidth intensive, and being that my uplink speed from home is rather limited, I have a difficult time running my normal applications from home.

Serial Port Programming

Serial port ActiveX is another virtualization solution intended to simplify serial port communication tasks in your projects. The program helps to solve all the complexity of the Win32 Serial Communications API.  Set-up will take just a few seconds.

Sharing USB printer

Sharing the printer with Windows traditional network sharing is not ideal. Printer status information, such as ink level, does not transmit well over traditional SMB printer sharing. A remote USB solution, on the other hand, makes the printer driver installed on my laptop behave as if the printer were directly attached. Googling for “usb network“. One thing though: I would like the software to work as a service under Windows so that the printer sharing feature could be available to remote users even before a user logs on to the main computer. I haven’t tested this yet, maybe this feature is already incorporated. Clean, clear and beaufitul interface, very simple installation, ‘just works’. My main computer runs Vista 64-bit and other remote USB drivers I tested were incompatible. This one seemed to work just fine.
