[QUOTE="anymohr, post: 247447, member: 67506"] Ahm, I don´t really know how to say this... the garbage is gone and the messages are displayed nicely on the screen. From the behaviour of soft- and hardware I decided that the problem must have to do with my hardware and I changed the levelshifter I was using for the display and that solved the issue with garbage beeing displayed. I don´t know why that very levelshifter (MAX3232CPE) works fine with the terminal emulators and the VFD control program off the web but fails with your plugin. Maybe it has to do with the way they are wired. I do not have the schematics. I can even send at 0ms comm.delay. I hope you can forgive me for waisting your time. The issue with the plugin crashing on COM2 and 3 and not talking to COM1 is still there when using that other shifter (also a 3232 from some other manufacturer, can´t read which). Also RTS and DTR still will not stick. Being able to use those signals would be very usefull for me as I plan to replace the cable between Display and PC by a class1 bluetooth connection and my bluetooth device needs those signals asserted to autoconnect. Do you want me to keep testing the issues above? I you gave me your address I would send out one of my VFDs to you. And could you also use a T6963C based LCD? I have some of those as well. [/QUOTE]
