Virtual Serial Port (VSPD)
轉自:
Virtual Serial Port 是 Eltima 旗下的一個產品之一 :
特性如下:
Full features list:
- Any number of virtual serial ports pairs can be created
- Virtual serial ports are absolutely the same copies of real ones - applications won't see the difference between real and virtual serial ports
- Virtual serial ports can be controlled directly from your own application via Dynamic Link Library supplied with VSPD (for OEM License owners)
- Link between virtual serial ports is much faster than real null-modem cable connection and solely depends on your processor speed (average transfer speed is about 5.5 Mbytes/sec)
- Real serial ports are not occupied - you can even have no real ports in system at all
- Strict baudrate emulation (for Windows NT4/2000/XP/2003/Server 2008/Vista/Windows 7)
- All signal lines are available: DTR/DSR/CTS/RTS/DCD/RI
- Full support of HandFlow control (Hardware and Xon/Xoff)
- Virtual serial line connection break emulation (for Windows NT4/2000/XP/2003/Vista/Server 2008/Windows 7)
- Different virtual null-modem schemes are available: standard/loopback/custom (for Windows NT4/2000/XP/2003/Vista/Server 2008/Windows 7)
- Virtual serial port may have any name you like, even the same name as real port has
- Ports are automatically re-created on system reboot (prior to user login)
- Possibility to change names of virtual serial ports, created by VSPD, shown in Device Manager
- Restriction of access to created virtual ports for various applications (for Windows 2000/XP/2003/Vista/Server 2008/Windows 7)
- Virtual Serial Port Driver and all of its internal drivers are digitally signed
- Complete information about current virtual serial port state, sent/received data, etc (for Windows NT4/2000/XP/2003/Vista/Server 2008/Windows 7)
- Windows kernel driver technology support (WDM, WMI, Power Management, PnP, etc)
- Printers can be assigned to any virtual serial port (available after Windows reboot)
- Hyper-threading and VMware friendly
- No reboot is required after VSPD installation, creation and reconfiguration of virtual serial ports
- 它能做什麼?
我主要都是用它來模擬兩台電腦 COM Port 之間的通訊。在以往若是要開發兩台電腦之間的 COM Port 通訊,我們可能需要兩條實體Serial COM Port,然後對特殊角位跳線,用來模擬通訊以便開發相關軟體,自從我多年前知道有這東西,就沒跳過線了,今天特地來分享這個東西給其他人知道。
- 如何模擬COM Port之間的通訊?
當我們打開軟體後可以看到我們電腦的實體Serial COM Port選擇First Port & Second Port接下來我們就可以看到我們在電腦中已經有虛擬的 COM Port 了,就算這個軟體關掉也仍能保持虛擬 COM Port 的存在可以觀察這個Port是被哪一隻程式所佔用,發送以及接收的 Bytes 狀況,由此可能得知自行開發的軟體有沒有正常在工作。手動模擬斷線/復線設定腳位跳線,雖然看起來是如此,但我改了設定也看不出什麼變化。
這軟體基本上就只是模擬 COM Port 而已,無法模擬實際設備的接收的實際反應狀況,我們還是得為每一個不同的設備進行參數上的處理或是流程上的處理。
Serial Port Monitor 也是 Eltima 旗下的產品 http://www.eltima.com/products/serial-port-monitor/

- User-friendly flexible interface: the software is designed to provide easy access to serial ports, no programming skills are required
- 它能做什麼?
我主要都是用它來觀察COM Port通訊的封包,瞭解封包的傳遞格式才能正確的處理資料。
- 如何觀察 COM Port 封包?
開啟軟體後,定義自己想要監視的Port按下箭頭後,就可以看到封包的傳遞(好多攪…)
除了監視封包外,也能傳送封包,讓你輕易的調試相關設備。
4種報表格式,讓你看的更多
這工具對於封包的觀察上有很大的幫助,有利於我們分析封包。
