In this short post, I’ll show you how to read and write to/from the serial port using Powershell.
Let’s see how to do it in the script example below.
#Returns a list of all the currently available serial ports. [System.IO.Ports.SerialPort]::getportnames() #Creates a new COM port object for COM5 with a baud rate of 9600. $port = new-Object System.IO.Ports.SerialPort COM5,9600,None,8,one #Open the connection. $port.open() $port.WriteLine("some string") #Sends string. $port.ReadLine() #Receives string. #Close the connection when done. $port.Close()
