public class Program
{
public static void Main()
{
byte[] bytes = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes("Hello Netduino");
//instantiate the serial port connection
SerialPort serialPort = new SerialPort("COM1", 2400, Parity.None, 8, StopBits.One);
serialPort.Open();
serialPort.Write(bytes, 0, 14);
}
}
}
Next thing would be to build a class that can send control characters as well but so far so good. Now I just wish I had bought the 4 line version
