Advanced Serial Port Monitor and Serial Port Sniffer Activex Control Software for Windows

Serial Port Monitor ActiveX
$299.95 - ELTIMA Software GmbH

Serial Port Monitor ActiveX is a powerful, advanced and absolutely unique component that can be easily implemented into developers? applications to monitor any serial port in a system. The product can be used for debugging applications that work with serial port, serial port monitoring applications development, development of system utilities to intercept communication data from COM ports for further analysis. This ActiveX Control offers a wide range of events, properties and methods to control the monitoring process. It lets you check the state of the serial port, process all signal line events to notify about the changes in state and data being sent/received via the port which is monitored by the ActiveX Control and control functions (Handflow, Baudrate, Timeouts). Additionally, it provides low-level access to serial port via standard IRP major functions and IOCTL requests. Serial Port Monitor ActiveX directly intercepts the data flow that passed through the serial port being sniffed. All its functionality makes Serial Port Monitor ActiveX more usable and robust component. With Serial Port Monitor ActiveX Control you can sniff and detect all serial port activity in your system, determine all applications that work with serial port as well as control serial port directly within your application (open/close serial port) without being detected. A unique OnOpenClose event detects the application name and defines whether the serial port is opened or not. Sniffing can be started/stopped even if the serial port was opened by other application. Serial Port Monitor ActiveX is compatible with MS Windows 2000, XP, 2003 and all 64-bit OS, MS Visual Basic 5-7, MS Visual C++ 5-7, Inprise/Borland Delphi 3-7, Inprise/Borland C++ Builder 3-6 and .NET technology. This component can be easily extended with your own functionality, delivering new creative opportunities to serial port application development. License type - OEM.

Serial Port Terminal
$39.95 - ELTIMA Software GmbH

Advanced Serial Port Terminal is a session-based, multi-purpose application that provides simple communication interface to connect to any serial port device (modem;fax;GPS;mouse;printer and so on). Whether you want to connect to remote computer using null-modem cable, send or receive various types of data (ASCII string, binary, octal and hexadecimal) over a serial line, redirect input or output data streams into a specified file, monitor data exchange between serial devices, troubleshoot and test modem settings, Advanced Serial Port Terminal by Eltima Software is just for you. Advanced Serial Port Terminal allows you to open as many serial ports as you like (including virtual serial ports); dynamically change serial port settings without necessity to close and reopen current port; adjust baudrate, databits, parity, stop bits, flow control parameters; save all received bytes into a file for later analysis and lots more. Being a session-based tool, Advanced Serial Port Terminal allows creation of options set and saving them under individual session names for different hosts. Unlike other terminals you may not only send, but also receive and view data in hexadecimal format, switch between dump and terminal view modes, etc, which could be very useful for debugging and testing serial port connections. Highly customizable interface lets you easily customize program interface to your taste and needs.

Advanced Virtual COM Port
$79.98 - KernelPro Software

Advanced Virtual COM Port is the first software of its kind which includes both local and network
virtual COM port functions.

It can share your real COM ports or it can create virtual COM ports and connect them with a
virtual null-modem cable locally or through a TCP/IP network or the Internet.

You can connect to a shared port and use it just like it is on your machine. Virtual serial ports
created by the program look and work the same way as real ones look and work.

Main features:
- Virtual COM Ports appear to the system and applications like real ones
- Virtual COM Ports work like real ones
- 64-Bit compatible (AMD64)
- Hot Virtual COM Port creation and removal (no need to reboot the computer)
- Once created, Virtual COM Ports persist in the system until you remove them
- No need to have physical serial ports (except for the physical ports sharing function)
- Higher data transfer rate than on hardware serial ports
- Up to 255 Virtual COM Ports can be created
- PnP, WMI support
- Flow control emulation supported
- Easy port state monitoring
- Ability to temporarily remove all ports without losing their configuration

BurnInTest Pro
$49 - PassMark Software

BurnInTest is a software tool that simultaneously exercises all of the major components of a computer, to test for endurance and reliability. The user can select the hardware components to test and individually adjust the load placed on each one via slide bars. Each test reports results to its own window and results are summarised along with any errors detected in the main program window. CPU, hard drives, CD ROM, CD burner, DVD, sound card, 2D graphics, 3D graphics, memory, network connection, serial ports, parallel port, USB ports, tape drive, video playback, printer or customer developed plug-in tests can all be tested at the same time. Results can be saved to disk, printed or exported as a graphical image. Other features include periodic logging, a temperature monitoring interface, timed test runs, the display of system information such as the CPU serial number, CPU speed and L2 cache size. BurnInTest is also available with serial, parallel and USB loopback plugs and has comprehensive on line help. There are also the more advanced features of EMC testing to ANSI C63.4-1992, RAM testing to 64GB and cyclic rebooting. Society's reliance on computers means that the cost of hardware failure can be enormous. BurnInTest thoroughly exercises PC hardware in the shortest period of time so intermittent or hidden problems are found before they turn into a disaster. BurnInTest is suited to computer enthusiasts, hardware manufacturers, systems integrators and 'overclockers' who want to cost effectively evaluate their systems.

WinI2C-DDC
$495 - Nicomsoft Ltd.

WinI2C/DDC is a powerful solution that allows you to control display devices in the Windows environment via the DDC/CI protocol. It allows you to send DDC/CI commands via the standard video cable (VGA or DVI) and control all display devices that support the DDC/CI protocol: CRT/LCD monitors, projectors, plasma panels, etc.

The WinI2C/DDC API allows you to perform all necessary operations with display devices:

- Enumerate all installed monitors.
- Get DDC/CI monitor capabilities.
- Read EDID (extended display identification data) directly from the monitor. EDID contains basic information about the monitor and its capabilities, including vendor information, maximum image size, color characteristics, factory preset timings, frequency range limits, and character strings for the monitor name and serial number.
- Read and change such monitor settings as brightness, contrast, screen position, size, color gain, etc.
- Execute any commands that the display device supports via DDC/CI.
- A wide set of advanced operations, for example, changing EDID or display's firmware.

WinI2C/DDC SDK contains detailed documentation as well as examples of applications for various programming languages (C++, VB, Delphi, C#, VB.NET) that will allow
you to start working with WinI2C/DDC immediately.
