You can use the serial ports for ASCII and other serial communication.

Examples of ASCII peripheral devices that you can use are:

ASCII terminals

bar-code readers

Allen-Bradley Dataliner

weigh scales

printers

Accessing a Port

When you use a serial port for ASCII and other serial communication, use

standard C library calls. You can use C calls such as:

getc()

read()

write()

Your C program can get and change port parameters using the OS-9 library

calls _gs_opt() and _ss_opt().

See the OS-9 C User Manual, publication 1771-6.5.104, for more

information on C library calls.

Example Program

The following program sets up the COMM2 port (/t2) with the proper

parameters for receiving data from a bar-code reader. The program:

clears the input buffer on the COMM2 port

loops forever, waiting for carriage-return-terminated lines

of ASCII characters indicating that a bar code has been read

places bar-code data in a buffer

calls a subroutine to handle decision-making (based

on the content of the bar code)
