Hi, I'm currently trying to use the 'comport' object to receive data from a microcontroller at a speed of 115200baud. However as soon as I send data, the GUI pretty much freezes - some number boxes still update, but all interactivity with GUI objects is lost.
Has anyone experienced this behaviour before ? Is the baudrate simply too high ? (I'm on a Athlon 1GHz/Win2000)
I had a similar problem on a similar configuration, and I was not using the comport object. My solution was to simply stop using w2k...
Can't do that for the current project (customer's preferences...), but for the future it's good to know that the serial port works better under Linux if that's what you're implying (as OS X won't be an option here). How high could you set the baudrate actually? Maybe even more than 115200? And what's the alternative object if you are/were not using comport?
Thanks much, Sukandar
