>I'm faced with a need to communicate with a SCALE that will send transactions to a PC via Serial Port. It will be a direct connection between the device (scale) and the PC COM Port. Are there any products available to help with that communication? I am not a serial communications oficionado, by any means...
Bill,
I've used CommTools for comunications with the serial port, have a look at:
http://www.hallogram.com/commtool/. There are certainly other tools with the same functionality.
Hope this helps.
