Interfacing the AX2500 via RS232 and Microsoft visual c++

<P style="MARGIN: 0px">Hello
<P style="MARGIN: 0px">I do not have Visual C++ 6.0 but I have 'Visual C++.Net 2003'. The two should work more or less the same way.
<P style="MARGIN: 0px">In 'Visual C++.Net' you would use a MFC component called 'MSComm32.OCX' which handles the RS232 port.
<P style="MARGIN: 0px">Check if you have it in your toolbox.
<P style="MARGIN: 0px">If you don't, you can add it. You go into the screen Tools&gt;Add/Remove Toolbox Items and click the tab COM_Components. Select the item 'Microsoft Communication control' and then the toolbox will show it shaped like a little telephone.
<P style="MARGIN: 0px">In case you do not have the component itself, you can download it from the Microsoft site. Start from:

If you have problems let me know and I will e-mail it to you. As far as the actual code, I have a demo application which runs the Roboteq controller. It would be useful to you probably only if you can use VC++.Net
<P style="MARGIN: 0px">There is a lot of code which is automatically generated, which probably would not run in VC++ 6.0

<P style="MARGIN: 0px">Let me know if you want it. It needs a little cleaning, otherwise it runs.
