Serial Port and Virtual Serial Port Driver Mobile Software for Windows

Share Serial Ports
$111.95 - ELTIMA Software GmbH

Share Serial Ports is an advanced utility, the purpose of which is to share real serial ports between multiple applications in the way, that all applications will receive same data from real serial port simultaneously. Shared Serial Ports can be used for serial port emulation, as it connects real serial ports by creating virtual serial ports, which are same copies as real ones. Each application will think that it is working with serial port in exclusive mode. All virtual serial ports will be able to send data to real serial port. Also, you will be able to set permissions to read, write or change control lines state for every application separately. Sharing a serial port is trully effective and reliable with Shared Serial Ports.

To start sharing a serial port you should simply select the serial port you wish to share in the drop-down list and put a checkmark "Share this port".

Virtual Serial Ports Driver CE
$49.95 - ELTIMA Software GmbH

Virtual Serial Ports Driver CE creates up to 20 pure virtual serial ports in your mobile system, this results in up to 10 virtual serial ports pairs. Each pair has 2 ports that are virtually connected to each other. For other applications, virtual serial ports will be seen exactly as two real serial ports connected via virtual null-modem cable. You can select any port numbers for virtual serial port pair as well as change their names from COM to VSP. For example, you can create virtual pair COM5-COM6 (or VSP0-VSP9). In this case all data sent by other applications to virtual serial port COM5 (VSP0) will arrive at virtual serial port COM6 (VSP9), and all data sent to virtual serial port COM6 will arrive at virtual serial port COM5 (VSP0). This can be seen if you run two terminal programs available for your OS and connect one of them to virtual serial port COM5 and other one to COM6. Then, all you type in first terminal will appear at second one. Of course, you can transfer files, other data or do whatever you want as if there are more real serial ports in your embedded device. With Virtual Serial Port Driver CE you can connect one application to another using virtual serial ports pair. Applications will be able to exchange data. This solution can be used, for example, for GPS simulation programs.

Virtual Serial Port Kit
$99.95 - FabulaTech, Inc.

Virtual Serial Port Kit creates pairs of virtual serial ports in your system which are virtually connected to each other. Physical null modem cables are not required. You can connect any number of virtual port pairs. Virtual serial port pairs will look and work exactly like real hardware serial ports connected via null modem cables.Virtual Serial Port Kit is designed for software developer to speed up development process during debugging and data-logging period and cut months or even years from total project time. Virtual Serial Port Kit is useful also for users which work with Windows applications using serial COM ports joined by null modem cable especially if those applications require more than one serial port pair.

FEATURES
- full hardware serial ports emulation.
- virtual serial ports look and work like real hardware ports.
- physical null modem cables are not required.
- virtual communication is more fast (up to 250 Kb/s) and reliable than
via real null modem cable.
- Serial data transmission speed (bitrate) emulation
- virtual serial ports configuration via Windows Device Manager.
- compatibility with PnP and WMI technologies.
- compatibility with VMware.
- hot program install - no system reboot is required.
- up to 127 virtual serial port pairs can be created.
- one click enable/disable button for all virtual serial ports.
- user friendly program interface.

Virtual Serial Port Control
$199.95 - FabulaTech, Inc.

If there is a task to provide interaction between communications application and your own program (e.g. serial device emulator), there is no common solution to accomplish it. It is considered that communications applications are intended to work only with hardware serial devices connected to physical serial ports.

Virtual Serial Port Control is an ActiveX control which makes it possible to create virtual serial ports directly from your program and fully control them. At the same time virtual ports look like real hardware serial ports for all Windows applications. And any communications application can work with them as if they were physical ports.

On the other hand, developer API provided by Virtual Serial Port Control allows your program to access data written to virtual serial port by communications application and to respond with your own data. The data will be read by communications application from virtual serial port as if they were read from a physical port.

Event driven architecture is a snap to use. You don't have to check ports periodically in order to find if their state is changed or new data available for reading from a port. Simply define a function in your program that will be triggered automatically by the appropriate event and process the data.

At the same time Virtual Serial Port Control immediately notifies your application about any actions done by communications application with serial port (port opening/closing, setting DTR/RTS handshake, baud rate setting, XON/XOFF symbols setting, etc).

Virtual Serial Port Control provides developer with full control over virtual serial port. Everything that can be done with physical serial port by a serial device is possible to be done with virtual serial port by VSPC.

What is more important, OEM license allows you to distribute this ActiveX control as part of your own application and you don't have to license every single copy.

Virtual Serial Port ActiveX Control
$270 - SoftInfinity

Virtual Serial Port is a powerful advanced ActiveX Control that allows your application to create custom additional virtual serial port in system and fully control it. Created virtual serial ports looks like real serial ports for other Windows applications. From your application you can control data sent to virtual serial port by other applications and respond to them by sending own data to virtual serial port, which will be received by other Windows applications like from real port.
Features: Flexible set of control functuins, Virtual serial port can have any name, Full software serial port emulation, Control lines support (DTR, RTS), High speed data exchange from/to virtual serial port, Virtual serial port could be created and deleted dynamically during runtime, Sample applications for Borland C++ Builder and Delphi and Microsoft Visual C++ and Visual Basic.
Virtual Serial Port ActiveX Control compatible with: Microsoft Visual C++ 5-6, Microsoft Visual Basic 5-6, Borland C++ Builder 3-6, Borland Delphi 3-6
