Question from a 'noob'

[blue77]

I've developed a software solution to work with a device (which I also developed), and i'm trying to communicate with the device. In my other solutions (PC based) I use a serial port. Is there a serial adapter/commuincations software (or protocol) for the PalmOS and Palm devices.

Thanks for your help.

There is a serial protocol on Palms - You can use things like ptelnet to use it.

The interface is trickier - You can definitely do it with older Palms, but most modern Palms come with a USB interface, and the optional serial interfaces can be tricky to get hold of.

If you're feeling adventurous you could try coding for the BlueTooth serial protocols, but I suspect your device doesn't have a BT interface...!

[Thanks]

You are correct, it does not have a BlueTooth Transceiver...

Maybe I should look into IR commuincations... what IR protocol does Palm use?
