RS232 (Serial) Communication To OI

[bglass]

Awesome. Thanks for the help everybody. As I have quite a bit of time left on my project, I think I'll probably try both methods (microcontroller and programming port) to see which works better (at least for my purposes). I think I have a pretty good basis (at least for the microcontroller based operation).

As far as the program goes...looks phenomenal so far. Communicating with serial port via Java isn't the most fun thing to do, but I can help you out with it. You're going to need the Java.Comm class (which isn't really hosted anymore). I have a copy that I managed to scrounge up from some of my older programming stuff. Shoot me a message and I'll send it over to you. It's got some decent documentation with it and I should still be able to help you some with it (it's been a while).

Thanks for the help everybody...I knew coming to ChiefDelphi would pay off...
