Troi Automatisering releases Serial Plug-in 3.1.1 for FileMaker Pro 10

 

Updated universal plug-in for FileMaker Pro 10 offers powerful access to the computer's serial ports and adds server-side functionality.

 

March 10th, 2009, Alphen aan den Rijn, The Netherlands--Troi Automatisering today released Troi Serial Plug-in 3.1.1 for FileMaker Pro 10.

 

 

What is Troi Serial Plug-in?

 

Troi Serial Plug-in gives FileMaker Pro 10 easy and powerful access to one or more of the computer's serial ports:

- Read from and write to the serial ports of the computer directly from FileMaker Pro without the need of a separate application.

- Native FileMaker script triggering, to get incoming data into the database.

- "Serial_Control" function to temporarily suspend the incoming data stream and resume it when you are interested in the data.

- "Wait for Match" function to wait for a specific text before triggering.

- The possibility to open an unlimited number of serial ports and to trigger different scripts for different ports.

 

 

Suggested Uses

 

Troi Serial Plug-in can be used whenever you need to send or receive (ASCII) data over a serial port. Suggested uses for Troi Serial Plug-in 3.1.1 are connecting to a Point-of-Sale system, custom switchboard dialing, caller ID, barcode reading, controlling external devices, data acquisition and data transfer. This plug-in is also very well suited for the use in electronic devices that send data to the computer continuously, like most electronic weighing scales.

 

All these features also work in a runtime solution.

 

 

What is new in version 3.1.1?

 

This is a maintenance release, and fixes a few bugs:

- (Windows) fixed a bug in the Serial_Send function, where an error code of $$14007 could be returned.

- Fixed a button with a missing script step and missing Perform Script steps in the SimpleSerial.fp7 example.

 

We invite you to test drive this powerful plug-in and see what you can do with it!
