Product Description

Product Description

The PC has long-time outgrown its function as a pure computer and has become an all-purpose machine. This book is targeted towards those people that want to control existing or self-built hardware from their computer. Using "Visual Basic" as Rapid Application Development tool, we will take you on a journey to unlock the world beyond the connectors of the PC. After familiarising yourself with Visual Basic, its development environment and the toolset it offers, items such as serial communications, printer ports, bit-banging, protocol emulation, ISA, USB and Ethernet interfacing and the remote control of test-equipment over the GPIB bus, are covered in extent. Each topic is accompanied by clear, ready to run code, and where necessary, schematics are provided that will get your projects up to speed in no time. This book will show you advanced things like: using tools like Debug to find hardware addresses, setting up remote communication using TCP/IP and UDP sockets and even writing your own internet servers. Or how about connecting your own block of hardware over USB or Ethernet and controlling it from Visual Basic. Other things like internet-program communication, DDE and the new graphics interface of Windows XP are covered as well. All examples are ready to compile using Visual Basic 5.0, 6.0, NET or 2005. Extensive coverage is given on the differences between what could be called Visual Basic Classic and Visual basic .NET / 2005.

Rare combination 25 May 2008
By KURT MOERMAN - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
This book is a rare combination of visual basic programming know how and practical interfacing and hardware knowledge. It's also fun to read.
Thin on Engineering details 8 April 2010
By Richard Canning - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I was quite surprised to see that this book had very few actual examples of interfacing test equipment with Visual basic. It looks like the author took a "VB for dummies" book and copy pasted it inside this book, slapping a few instrumentation examples in for good measure.
Fairly disappointed!
