Hello all, I am very new to Python and I am using it because I needed an easy language to control a piece of equipment that connects to my computer via a serial cable. I am running Python 2.6 with pySerial 2.4 under Windows. I can get Python to create a serial port on COM1, but when I try to write to the device, nothing happens. Here is an example:
import serial ser = serial.Serial(0) ser.write("otpm 2 16 0") ser.close() If I connect to the device in Hyperterminal the device will behave as expected when I give it the command 'otpm 2 16 0' but not in Python. I have confirmed Python is actually controlling the port because Hyperterminal will not open the port while Python has it open, although I have not been able to try a loopback connector as of yet. Any suggestions out there? Thanks in advance! Cheers, Bryce -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
