I second the suggestion to try pySerial. I have used it for years to control RS-232 equipment -- don't know why I did not think of that. Like Terra-Term, pySerial will use device-level, rather than file-level APIs to talk to the UART.
Of course, your success will depend a great deal on the skill of the programmer who wrote the driver for your USB-serial device. The important part of the work is done in the driver when it processes interrupts in Kernel mode. The USB adapter I tried -- well, lets just say it's still sitting in a box of loose parts. That's why I have been contemplating a Raspberry Pi purchase myself. Perhaps we should take this discussion off line and compare notes. > > On Sat, Feb 15, 2014 at 9:40 AM, RayS <r...@blue-cove.com> wrote: >> >> At 08:14 AM 2/15/2014, you wrote: >> >> Vernon >> >> Your suggestion is interesting but not practical for our needs. >> >> >> Have you profiled pySerial? http://pyserial.sourceforge.net/examples.html >> I use it in my LX200 serial telescope package >> http://rjs.org/Python/LX200/LXSerial.py/LXSerial.html >> http://rjs.org/Python/LX200.zip >> >> - Ray >> > _______________________________________________ python-win32 mailing list python-win32@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
