Troi Serial Plug-in 2.2 for FileMaker 5.5

Troi Automatisering releases Troi Serial Plug-in 2.2 for FileMaker Pro 5.5.

Troi Serial Plug-in updated to work with FileMaker 5.5 and Mac OS X.

Alphen a/d Rijn, The Netherlands, October 30, 2001--Troi Automatisering
today announced the availability of Troi Serial Plug-in 2.2, for FileMaker
Pro 5.5 and for Mac OS, Mac OS X and Windows.

What is the Serial Plug-in?

Troi Serial Plug-in gives FileMaker Pro 5.5 easy and powerful access
to one or more of the computer's serial ports:

- Read from and write to the serial ports of the computer directly
from FileMaker Pro without the need of a separate application.
- Active X support (on Windows) and Apple Event support (on Mac OS)
for script triggering with Dispatch Scripting(tm), to get incoming
data into the database.
- "Serial-Control" function to temporarily suspend the incoming data
stream and resume it when you are interested in the data.
- "Wait for Match" function to wait for a specific character string
before triggering.
- The possibility to open an unlimited number of serial ports and to
trigger different scripts for different ports.
- Support for high speed connections up to 230 Kbps.
- Buffering of data up to 64k per port.
- Clear example databases and a user manual to get started quickly.

Peter Baanen, company president, states: "We are happy that we can now
provide more features and platforms for the Serial plug-in to our users.
Even if that required building a plug-in for the plug-in itself on Mac OS X
to get it working!"

New features

Troi Serial plug-in 2.2 adds these new functions and features:

- Tested with FileMaker 5.5 and ported to Mac OS X. The Mac version
of the plug-in is now a so called 'Super Fat' plug-in that will run
on Mac OS 8, 9 and Mac OS X.
- Added possibility to trigger different scripts for different ports.
- Added support for runtimes (including kiosk mode) created with
FileMaker Developer 5 and FileMaker Developer 5.5 for Windows and for
FileMaker Developer Edition 4.0 for Windows.
- Added extra example files and improved User Guide.

Suggested Uses

Troi Serial Plug-in can be used whenever you need to send or receive ASCII
data over a serial port. Suggested uses for Troi Serial Plug-in 2.2 are
connecting to a modem, custom switchboard dialing, caller ID, credit card
swiping, controlling external devices (like Billy Bass, the singing fish
;-) ), data acquisition and data transfer. This plug-in is also very well
suited for the use in electronic devices that send data to the computer
continuously, like most electronic weighing scales. An example file for a
weighing scale is included in the download.
