Create Palm Software to Communicate with Your Serial Devices!
Are you wondering how to write software that will allow you
to communicate to serial devices with your Palm? Just download
PalmTerm software from the B&B Electronics website for a complete
and easy example to get started.
PalmTerm simply displays the characters transmitted and received.
You can define up to 5 transmit strings which you can include
regular text or hexadecimal characters that are specified
between <>.
PalmTerm is a simple freeware program that demonstrates serial
communications with the Palm OS. It was created with CodeWarrior.
PalmTerm comes with source code and includes all the serial
routines that you may need to start writing your own serial
communication programs.
Simply cut and paste the following serial communications
routines and with minor modifications, get working in your
application.
void OpenSerialPort(void)
void CloseSerialPort(void)
void TransmitData(char* chrBuffer)
void ReceiveData(void)
