RE: display data in guide???

Hi killabyte,

I am trying to get data over serial program but matlab doesn't respond to commands. Can you give me advise to get datas from serial port.

RE: display data in guide???

(OP)
you should check first the serial data type you are transmitting. synchronous asynchronous.

wil you get bits or bytes, ascii...

then check the way you are capturing data, there is a huge list of parameters you should inspect and then carefully select be careful when doing this.

there is some problems in matlab serial ports in version 6.1 and early cause if you close the port and delete the objects you wont be allowed to control the port until you restart matlab.

usually is necessary to create a .m script to  get data. be more specific and i be more able to help you. please read first matlab´s help about serial transmitting it altough it is not so clear, is a great help.

are you developing a "guide" application?

let me know

regards

killa
