 |
|
Hi,
I am a 10th grader working on my Computer Project Coursework for my IGCSE. My computer project is requires me to connect an RFID kit to my computer and program the transponders via VB. After a lot of struggling, I figured out how to open and close the COM port.
Now I just need help in sending a byte to the device. I need to send the initializing byte - 00h. I am not sure if I should send it in hex or binary.
Please HELP! |

If you just send a single byte you are just sending a single byte. Wether it's displayed as binary or hex is just a visual display option, the value of the byte you send is the same either way.
