Hi,
Here is a program that can transmit a packet of up to 32 characters repeatedly.
The program is written using Basic4PPC and was developed on a SmartBook III
running Windows 6.1 Professional. The program was written to send and receive
characters across a wireless Bluetooth serial port connection.
This program works the same as the Auto16 program written for the HP 110
PDA with a 320 x 240 screen, expanded to work on a device with a 800 x 480
screen using up to 32 characters in a packet.
This program example allows you to define up to 32 bytes that can be
transmitted in a repeating loop. You can send 1 byte, 2 bytes, 3 bytes,
up to 32 bytes at a time. After you have defined a set of characters
you can choose the ones that you want to send by simply checking its
checkbox.
This program was written to be used with a wireless Bluetooth Serial
Port connection. I use the Firefly BP Bluetooth Serial Port adapter.
You can select a time delay between the bytes transmitted in a packet
and you can select a time delay between packets.
You can assign a Label to each Value that you define.
You can save the defined values to a file and you can read back from
the saved file.
To enter data, simply check a checkbox, enter data into the
Label and Value fields, then press the "E" button.
The program has a TX and RX textboxes for the sending and receiving of
data.
The buttons on the main form have the following meaning:
E - Enters the data in the Label and Value fields.
CLV - Clear the Label and Value fields.
CT - Clear the TX textbox.
CR - Clear the RX textbox.
CC - Clear the Checked Checkboxes.
Send : TX - Send (transmit) the characters in the TX textbox.
Transmit Disable/Enable - Transmit toggle button, when the button is "green",
transmission is enabled. When the button is "red", transmission is disabled.
SIP On/Off - Turns the Soft Input Keyboard On and Off.
Read : File - Reads the data saved in the File.
Save : File - Writes the currently defined data to the File.
View : Data - Displays a Form which shows you the currently defined data.
Run - Starts transmitting the characters in the packet.
Stop - Stops transmitting the characters in the packet.
Open - Opens the Bluetooth Serial Com Port.
Close - Closes the Bluetooth Serial Com Port.
Exit - Exits the View Data Form.
The Byte Delay Box - Allows you to define a time delay in milliseconds that is
used to space the bytes in a packet.
The Packet Delay Box - Allows you to define a time delay in seconds between
the packets.
Once you press the Run button the defined bytes in a packet will be
transmitted over and over again until you press the Stop button to
stop the transmission.
Below are pictures, the installation file and the Basic4PPC code.
