We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "RS232 Serial Port",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Smart cameras cut the cost of inspection from
National Instruments, which we summarised at the time by saying "The cameras are shipped with an interactive software environment for configuring, benchmarking and deploying machine vision applications without programming".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Compact slides suit travelling from
Zaber Technologies: "Integrated motors and controllers allow T-LSR slides and T-LS stages to be daisy chained with other Zaber products".
In April 2007, we covered the news from Wilcoxon Research
concerning its iT230 vibration transmitter
- take a look at Vibration transmitter suits online monitoring
which says: "Wilcoxon Research's iT230 vibration transmitter with displacement output is ideal for cost-effective, online monitoring of machinery case vibrations".
Take a look also at the news release from Zaber Technologies, Linear stages handle 20kg loads,
as well as ADSL router reaches 8Mbit/s speeds from Westermo Data Communications,
and Entry level HMI comes in industrial PC package from Citect.
