Stone WinForm v1.0

Tags： WinForm 开发 Windows 表单设计

Stone WinForm(C# Serial Port Scanner Tool) is a software designed to help customers connect their scanners. It enables computers to read data from scanners and access C# serial ports, facilitating the development of compiled program applications. The simple implementation of serial communication with scanners relies on the SerialPort class, which represents serial communication port resources. The process is straightforward: you will need a USB-to-RS232 adapter, a scanner, and a scanner serial connection adapter. Connect the adapter to the computer, and you will find six read methods in the SerialPort: Read(); ReadLine(); ReadByte(); ReadChar(); These methods allow synchronous reading. Additionally, there are two methods for multithreading reading: ReadExisting(); ReadTo(); During the detection process, it was found that after executing the read methods, if the length of the data read from the buffer is insufficient, it will be concatenated to the next read result. Therefore, in the code, Thread.sleep() method is used to block the process, ensuring that the data read from the buffer is detailed.

Software Features

Easy Connection: Stone WinForm simplifies the process of connecting scanners to your computer, making it ideal for both beginners and experienced users.

Robust Communication: The software leverages the SerialPort class for reliable serial communication, ensuring that data from the scanner is accurately and efficiently transmitted to the computer.

Versatile Read Methods: With six synchronous read methods and two multithreading read methods, users have a variety of options to choose from based on their specific needs.

Data Integrity: The inclusion of Thread.sleep() in the code ensures that the data read from the buffer is complete, preventing any data loss or corruption.

How to Use

To get started with Stone WinForm, follow these simple steps:

Install the Software: Download and install the Stone WinForm software on your computer.

Connect the Scanner: Use the USB-to-RS232 adapter and scanner serial connection adapter to connect your scanner to the computer.

Configure the Serial Port: Open the software and configure the serial port settings to match your scanner's connection.

Start Reading: Use the available read methods to start reading data from the scanner. Ensure that you select the appropriate method based on your requirements (synchronous or multithreading).

Monitor the Data: As data is read from the scanner, it will be displayed in the software interface, allowing you to monitor and analyze the information.

With Stone WinForm, connecting and reading data from scanners has never been easier. Whether you're developing compiled program applications or simply need to access scanner data, this software provides a reliable and user-friendly solution.
