Commercial 05 Jul 2006 Description AVSD OEM is a programming interface, which allows you to add support of virtual serial ports to your own application. You have full control over ports created with the help of AVSD OEM, including reading data that some other application has written using WriteFile function, writing data to be read with ReadFile function, flow control signals monitoring and controlling. If you have the software, which works with some device connected to COM port and you want to capture all the data that goes to and from the port, then AVSD OEM is what you need.

1. Delphi Xe5 Android Serial Port

Just create one virtual port and tell the application to use it. Now you can monitor all data that application writes to the port and redirect it to the real COM port. And vice versa, you monitor all data coming from device and redirect it to the virtual port. With AVSD OEM you can:. Create yourprotocol-to-serial abstraction. Create virtual platform and emulator plugins. Create usb2serial, bluetooth2serial, IrDa2serial adapters.

Shareware 05 Jul 2006 Description Software developers can access various devices by utilizing the Windows API.

When using an API, you gain access to a full spectrum of available features, but API programming is a very tough and time-consuming task. You have to study the documentation and you have to create all the high-level functionality based on the low-level API functions from scratch. This is OK if you develop a specialized application.

However, in most cases, you just want to get a certain device working in your program with the least effort possible. One of the system devices that you often need to support is a Serial Port. There are numerous lab instruments, protection gadgets and other inventory that can be connected via a COM port. Instead of spending weeks or even months for API coding, you could use a ready-made ActiveX component in your program.

We recommend you give Serial Port Control from FabulaTech a try. Serial Port Control is an inexpensive, royalty-free, ActiveX component. You can use it with any ActiveX-enabled development environment, such as Visual C, Visual Basic, Delphi, etc. Just put it on a form and you have all the functionality you need to access a serial port, either physical or virtual. Serial Port Control automatically enumerates all the ports available in the system.

You just need to select the port name you wish to work with. The event driven architecture of this component is a snap to use.

You don't have to check ports periodically in order to find if there is 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. Despite its low cost, the component is royalty-free. There are no hidden fees and you are free to distribute it together with your own software. Informations. Status: Trial (work while IDE is running). Source: None.

ZylGPSReceiver - GPS Delphi & CBuilder Component Zyl Soft See also: ZylGPSReceiver 3.76 Delphi & CBuilder Component ZylGPSReceiver is a Delphi & CBuilder component collection that communicates with a GPS receiver (Global Positioning System). It returns latitude, longitude, altitude, speed, course, heading and many other useful parameters of the current position and the parameters of the satellites in view. The component is extended to calculate distances and make conversions between different measurement units.

This component works with any NMEA 0183 compilant GPS receiver connected to one of the serial ports. NMEA 0183 (or NMEA for short) is a combined electrical and data specification for communication between marine electronic devices such as echo sounder, sonars, Anemometer (winds speed and direction), gyrocompass, autopilot, GPS receivers and many other types of instruments. It has been defined by, and is controlled by, the US-based National Marine Electronics Association. The component supports GPS (USA), GLONASS (Russia), BeiDou (China), Quasi-Zenith (Japan) and Galileo (EU) satellites, but theoretically you can use for any other satellite as well.

You can use it also with USB, IrDA and Bluetooth devices, because these devices have a driver that redirects the input from the USB, IrDA or Bluetooth port to a virtual serial port (you can check it in System/Device Manager/Ports). If your USB device is not provided with such a driver, then use a USB controller whose vendor provides a virtual serial port driver, such as or use a USB/RS-232 adapter.

For Garmin receivers you have to install. To connect to an Android smartphone's GPS, you can download GPS2Bluetooth application from playstore and connect your phone to your PC through bluetooth (GPS2BT service). The component collection contains 4 components. The following image displays the object model: ZylCustomGPSReceiver is a custom Delphi & CBuilder component, which is designed to be the base class of any kind of GPS receivers. This component contains an NMEA decoder engine and it works with any NMEA compatible GPS receiver. You can extend this class easily to process NMEA data from any kind of sources as files, sockets, web services and so on. Supported NMEA sentences: GPGLL, GPGGA, GPVTG, GPRMC, GPGSA, GPGSV, GPZDA, GPMSS, GPAAM, GPRMB, GPBWC, GPWPL, GPRTE, GPXTE, GPHDT, GPHDM ZylGPSReceiver (ZylSerialGPSReceiver) is an extension of ZylCustomGPSReceiver, which processes NMEA data from serial, USB or Bluetooth ports.

It's thread based, which means that the reading process is handled by a different thread. ZylUdpGPSReceiver is an extension of ZylCustomGPSReceiver, which processes NMEA data from an UDP socket. It uses Indy 9 socket components , which is preinstalled in Delphi 6 and later. You can find the full source code of this component in the download package. Is usually used with Delphi 4, Delphi 5, Delphi 6, Delphi 7, C Builder 4, C Builder 5, C Builder 6, later versions using Indy 10.

ZylUdp10GPSReceiver is an extension of ZylCustomGPSReceiver, which processes NMEA data from an UDP socket. It uses socket components , which is preinstalled in Delphi 2005 and later. You can find the full source code of this component in the download package. ZylFileGPSReceiver is an extension of ZylCustomGPSReceiver, which processes NMEA data from a text file.

ZylNMEADecoder is an extension of ZylCustomGPSReceiver, which decodes NMEA data from any source, but you have to feed it with NMEA sentences programatically from the Decode method. With this components you will be able to develop robust GPS Delphi or CBuilder applications. Possible applications can be:. Vehicle Navigation. Marine Navigation. Fleet Management. Emergency Locator.

Geographic Surveying. AVL and Locating-Based Services. Personal Navigation or touring devices. Tracking devices. Sporting and Recreation. Farming. Time synchronization With ZylGPSReceiver you can also create web distributed applications.

The main idea behind is very simple:. Create a desktop application or a Windows service that will run locally on the server, collecting gps-data from the receiver and saving them in the database. Create a web service that will provide the requested gps-data from the database to the webpages. The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a worldwide radio-navigation system formed from a constellation of 24 satellites and their ground stations. GPS uses these satellites as reference points to calculate positions accurate to a matter of meters.

In fact, with advanced forms of GPS you can make measurements to better than a centimeter! In a sense it's like giving every square meter on the planet a unique address. GPS receivers have been miniaturized to just a few integrated circuits and so are becoming very economical.

And that makes the technology accessible to virtually everyone. These days GPS is finding its way into cars, boats, planes, construction equipment, movie making gear, farm machinery, even laptop computers, tablets, mobile phones or smart watches. GPS technology has matured into a resource that goes far beyond its original design goals. These days scientists, sportsmen, farmers, soldiers, pilots, surveyors, hikers, delivery drivers, sailors, dispatchers, lumberjacks, fire-fighters, and people from many other walks of life are using GPS in ways that make their work more productive, safer, and sometimes even easier. The demo version is fully functional in Delphi and CBuilder IDE, but it displays a nag dialog (the licensed version will, of course, not have a nag dialog and will not be limited to the IDE).
