how can i program the COM2 of the reader

hello,
with Com1 there isn't any problem.
with Com2 there is a problem.

SERIAL_PARAM Com1Cfg;   
BYTE res ;					Com1Cfg.Port = G_COM1; 
	Com1Cfg.Speed = 38400;  
	Com1Cfg.CharSize = 8;   
	Com1Cfg.Parity = FALSE;  
	Com1Cfg.Cwt= 0xFF; 
	Com1Cfg.Bwt = 0xFF ; 
res = SerialOpen(&Com1Cfg, &ucPortId); 
 read( ....
....
write(....
.....
when i replace G_COM1 par G_COM2
there isn't any reaction with the reader
thanks

  • If I understand you correctly, you are saying that your device (the smart card reader) works when connected to com1 on your PC, but the same device, using the same firmware, does not work when connected to Com2.

    If that's the case, then this is a PC configuration issue. You may have your second COM port disabled in CMOS, it may be pre-empted by another application, etc.

  • there isn't any problem whith COM1 and COM2 of PC.
    the problem, that the program loaded in the smart card reader can't send or receive any data via COM2.

    Com2Cfg.Port = G_COM1; 
    				Com2Cfg.Speed = 38400;  
    				Com2Cfg.CharSize = 8;   
    				Com2Cfg.Parity = FALSE;  
    				Com2Cfg.Cwt= 0xFF; //DEFAULT_TIMOUT;              
    				Com2Cfg.Bwt = 0xFF ; //DEFAULT_TIMOUT;
    				SerialOpen(&Com2Cfg, &ucPortIdCom2); 
    
    SerialWrite(...
    ....
    

  • I'm not sure what this line of code does but it looks suspicious to me.

    Does this line

    Com2Cfg.Port = G_COM1;
    need to be changed to
    Com2Cfg.Port = G_COM2;
    -Walt

  • when i use

    Com2Cfg.Port = G_COM1;

    the Com1 Send and receive without problem§.
    but when i use
    Com2Cfg.Port = G_COM2
    Com2 can't sent or receive any data.
    can you resolve me this problem
    best regards,

  • "can you resolve me this problem"

    Not without your target, and a full copy of all your soure code!

    You will need to adopt standard debugging techniques to narrow down the problem!

    Is data getting into the UART's Tx/Rx buffer?
    Are the interrupts working?
    Are all the definitions correct?

    Have you tried stepping through your functions to look for the difference between COM1 and COM2
