Already thinking up new stuff for SerialBridge.

Am I correct in my thinking that multiple instance of SB can be run, I.e. one for each serial port doing Indigo duty.

Each with their own registration code of course.

Or would one simply switch ports in the AScript as needed.

TIA

Actually, you just need 1 instance of the SB app running. You can create multiple connections (File->New Connection menu item), each of which has its own port settings and runs a different AppleScript for processing the serial communication. And all for 1 low price!

(good manual and documentation not included!)

Cool.

Thanks Matt.

Matt I want to put two Easydaq USB serial relay boards controlled by indigo.
One board has 4 inputs and 4 relays and the second board has 24 relays.

I can right now open and control either board.

So to control 2 boards I do what - I presume since the script has a line

property connectionName : "relays4"

Do I duplicate the script and change the line to

property connectionName : "relays24"

on the second script?

Duplicate the entire connection folder (probably called "relays4") inside:

Code: Select all

/Library/Application Support/Perceptive Automation/Serial Bridge/

and then change the folder name to whatever you want to call the connection ("relays24"). That will then be the connection name. You can get SB to open the connection by double-clicking on the .sbDb file inside that folder.
