Serial support

The Serial Modules module add serial comm support and system.serial functions to python scripts. These functions allow you to open, read from, write to, and close serial ports.

Multiple Scopes

There are two variants of the Serial Module. Both perform similar functionality, but at different scopes:

• The Serial Module Client allows the system.serial functions to be accessed from client based scripts, as well as connect to serial devices plugged into the computer running the client

• The Serial Module Gateway allows the system.serial functions to be accessed from gateway based scripts, as well as connect to serial devices plugged into the gateway server
