Bluetooth BGB203 Modulation
Does anybody here have experience with using the NXP BGB203 chip? I am having a testlab issue and the situation is becoming dire. The issue is that the testlab needs to see the device modulate data at a fixed frequency for measuring purposes. Our previous device modulated just fine, but our...- deanlwvu

running eVB 3.0 on windows Mobile 2003
I believe that you need to move up to EVC++4.0 or VS.NET. I don't think that Windows Mobile 2003 supports applications that are written in EVB3.0- deanlwvu

DOS Int14 Service 04 Serial Question
I'm trying to pull a character from the serial port, and I'm having some trouble. I need to have a program listen to the serial port and print a character if it sees one, or send a character out if a key is pressed. Using Turbo C 2.1 on a Windows 2k machine. /* -- Includes -- */ #include... -
Using 'union REGS regs'
I have a major problem with the union REGS regs command in C. I have a program, source below, that generates errors whenever I compile. I've used Borland C++ 6.0, Visual Studio.NET, and Borland C++ 5.5. All of said compilers on Windows 2k, and all generating same errors, saying that... -

What about if you're using Dev C and you're writing a console application? // Local variables. union REGS dRegs; // assembly date registers union union REGS mRegs; // assembly mark date registers union union REGS tRegs; //... -
Serial Port Programming with C/C++
Yeah, I'm aware of all of that. I have a lot to learn before I ever implement serial interfacing with .NET. I appreciate the input though. -
Serial Port Programming with C/C++
I am yet to program a windows terminal program for the serial interface. Currently learning Visual Studio.NET and teaching myself what to do with the serial interfaces. I will post my future findings in this forum. -
Serial Port Programming with C/C++
I'm not sure. Inportb and outportb both use header files that don't include inportb and outportb in their definitions. -
Serial Port Programming with C/C++
Like I said, I am using Turbo C (I know, an old compiler) but it's only for a DOS terminal. A small terminal that doesn't run windows or anything like that. Turbo C is all that you need. Now, if you're using dev c++ or vc++, you'll need to use different header files more than likely. Good luck. -
Errors when trying to Sync
You might need the newest version of ActiveSync. 3.7. Go to Microsoft's Website and download it. That might help. I know people who have had trouble with 3.5 and 3.7 cleared it up.- deanlwvu

Excuse the probably stupid question
Yes. It is quite possible, as long as you have the tools. I would start rummaging around http://msdn.microsoft.com to learn some more information, as you have to have some additional packages with Visual Studio.NET, all of which are available for free from Microsoft's website. Let me know...- deanlwvu

Serial Port Programming with C/C++
I think that it should work, running a dos window. I'm using Win2k, and I compiled using Borland Turbo C. It works pretty well, actually, and I would give it a try. Let me know what you find out. I've also built on this code, sending text files as strings and whatnot. The key here is the... -
Serial Port Programming with C/C++
I was successful in getting this to work using the inportb and outportb functions. /* This program is used to pull data from the serial port */ #include <dos.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <conio.h> #define PORT1 0x3F8 /* Defines Serial Port Base Address (COM1 */ void main(void){... -
C/C++ Certification
Most major colleges and Universities teach C/ C++ in their coursework for engineering. C is the easiest to learn and most powerful for programmers. Also, while in an interview, people who want you to know C will ask "Do you know C?" There really aren't certifications that I know of. -
CTS/RTS Handshaking
After doing some manipulation, I found out that you were examining the wrong register. You needed to be examining the MSR (modem status register) instead of the Line Status register. I guess that nobody is perfect. -
CTS/RTS Handshaking
Alright, that's all fine and good. You know your stuff, and when you give advice, it would be a little more helpful if you weren't as demeaning. We're not expert programmers, that's why we post on here. Also, I called the file outfile, because the serial port is sending the file out to a... -
CTS/RTS Handshaking
And I have to use handshaking. That's the whole point of the program, to verify that a system has proper handshaking wiring. for(count = 0; count <= 3360; count++){ if(fscanf(outfile, " %s", sequence)!=EOF){ fscanf(outfile, "%s", sequence); for(count2 = 0; count2...
