How to query a port serial com to determine if it is already open?
I would like to ask a COM port to see if it has already been opened by another program, and then select another Com port if the original choice was already open.
What language and api do you use? With LabVIEW and VISA, when you open a port, and it's in use, you will get a specific error (I don't remember the exact error code). Look for this error code.
The VISA is-1073807246 error

Windows XP does not allow applications to use the virtual serial (COM) Ports
Operating system: Windows XP Professional version 2002 Service Pack 3
I want to use some applications to control virtual serial (COM) on a device of PEARL IOLAN STS8 D/TruePort ports in Windows XP Professional SP3. When I configure the IOLAN/TruePort I see the COM ports in the Windows Device Manager and I am able to configure my applications to use ports. However, when applications try to open the serial ports, I get an error saying that the port is already in use or does not exist.
I tried various alternatives to remove/re-add the ports 'in use' in Windows before you configure IOLAN/TruePort and applications. This (sometimes) allows me to use the ports but if the PC is turned off later and rebooted the problem reappears.
Is there a reliable way to create and use virtual COM ports in Windows XP?
The IOLAN/TruePort Pearl versions are:
V4.3 Device Manager
Firmware TruePort 6.4Hello
The question you posted would be better suited in the TechNet Forums. I would recommend posting your query in the TechNet Forums.

Serial com port USB displays error code 10
When I did a check up on my computer (Windows 7 OS) this morning he said my serial port USB COM 3 would not start and had a code 10. I went to the Device Manager and checked, and it says the same thing. I clicked on update of drivers and it said that I had updated the drivers. I plugged the USB things in the USB port and it worked fine. I went to Device Manager and it still has the yellow mark with code 10. How can I correct something that seems to work correctly?
Thank you
Shirley
