Hello,
I'm attempting to use wine with PLC Programmer, which trying to connect to PLC by COM port.
After installation and run, program not detecting com ports.
This is HP OmniBook 900 Laptop.
PIII 500
Sidux (without desktop environment, just pure xserver) - I'm using this laptop only for this program. I have configured it on XFCE, then deleted it. Program starting after system Boot, and when someone close it, computer will shutdown.
Kernel 2.6.27
Please help me, because I don't want, to buy Windows just for this program.
Best regards.
Wine, PLC Programmer and COM port Problems
The answer is simple by default wine is not connected to any.
cd ~/.wine/dosdevices then ln -s </dev/serial port you want to use> com1
And so on for all the com devices you want access able form inside wine. Yes this still needs adding to winecfg.
Before you get too far using the PLC I would recommend checking out the Native Linux options. http://plc.sourceforge.net/
People forget a lot of embedded development is done on Linux systems. There is more plc software for linux than what is just listed on that one site.
