Receive String From RS232

[adyble]

Hi

I am testing then codes_demo in dephi 7. I am reading from a com port that is sending continuous data, I am trying to get the data as text , line by line , similar to how hyperterminal does it.

is there a demo for this or can you advise me please.

Thanks

Hello

It seems like you want to handle an incoming data separated by lines.

You can take a look the sources of following demo project:
demos\vcl\SimplePacket\SimplePacket.dpr

It monitors #13#10 char separator and raises routine after line detection.

I can't get any data using this demo, however Terminal demo works perfectly.
I just can;t work out how to extract each line of data so I can parse it

Thanks

Hello

Do you know end of line sequence?

Is it two chars #13#10 or single char #13 ?

In last case you need to modify sources of demo.

Please find line:

Code Select Expand

EndOfPacket:string=#13#10;
and replace it with:

Code Select Expand

EndOfPacket:string=#13;

Please note that you are wrong:
The Hypertemrinal does not detect lines.
It shows every char.
And when it receives #13, it moves the caret on new line.

I bound as tranceiver and I can receive message from the SMSC like QuerySm but the problem is that I cannot receive on the short code like "1234" provision for me on the smsc.

How can I achieve that. Just to receive from short code, since I can received delivery message from my smsc already.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thank you

Hello

I don't understand your problem.
Please show more samples of string from remote clinet.

You can detect packet (string) if you are sure that:
1) String has a fixed length
OR
2) String has a fixed char sequence at the end (or at the begining)
