The timeout value was just set at the default. How do you know how long your stream of data is? The purpose of my application is to input a setpoint temperature to the refrigerator/heating circulator and also read what temperature the circulator is actually at. The circulator recognizes certain commands that is inputted from the computer. For example, to set the setpoint temperature to 25 deg C, the command is: out_sp_00 25.0 return So I have set up "out_sp_00 " as a string constant and the setpoint temp is inputted through a string control. Also, I used a carriage return. All of these are then concatonated together. So what would the size of this data stream be considered as? Do I even have the right idea of inputting this command or have I done things the long/wrong way?
Thanks for the heads up if a timeout occured when reading
