SuperCom SX for Windows is a Communications-/RS-232-Toolkit for Windows. SuperCom is a programmer's toolkit for programming serial communication programs. SuperCom contains functions for all aspects of modern data transmission.

Transmitting and receiving takes place interrupt-driven in the background. The flow control for the application (RTS/CTS, DTR/DSR, XON/XOFF) can be taken over fully transparent by SuperCom. Every interface has a transmit and a receive buffer available.

Hardware errors are detected and if required reported. The supported protocols and the modem functions make possible data transmission without problems and access to external databases and mail boxes.

SuperCom is fast, even in a multitasking operating system like Windows. SuperCom integrates the most modern communication technology like: event reporting, thread driven data transmission, and high-speed byte and packet functions. Furthermore it offers the highest security and speed with little burden on the computer, particularly important in a multitasking operating system.

SuperCom is event driven

A SuperCom application can install a User Event Function to capture the event messages reported by the SuperCom low-level functions. The reported events can be: received or transmitted data, modem status, line errors, modem dialup status, file transmit status.

SuperCom consists of several modules, which can be used according to your needs.

  • The ComInt module forms the core of SuperCom and contains all low level routines and operates hardware-similar. All subsequent modules form themselves around ComInt and offer the application software a high level interface for data transmission.
  • DataLink is a part of the high level interface and offers routines that transmit and receive data (also time dependent) which determine the status of the interface.
  • The Transport module, with its packet routines, forms the transport part of the high level interface. Transport offers packet routines that transmit and receive data packets (also time dependent).
  • The Modem module is the part of the high level interface which is responsible for the communication through the modem. Routines for programming and controlling a modem are implemented in this module.
  • The group Terminal consists of the terminal emulations for ANSI, TTY and VT52.
  • Another group made up of modules (Protocol) forms the transmission protocols (ZMODEM, YMODEM, YMODEM/BATCH, XMODEM, XMODEM/CRC, ASCII) which come with SuperCom and are responsible for the safe transmission of files.

Despite the large number of functions, programming with SuperCom is very easy. The following short C program clearly shows this:


str = "Hello World";
ComInit(COM_2);
ComSetState(COM_2,19200,9,'N',1,SIGNAL_CTS);
RS_TXPacket(COM_2, str, strlen(str),&Result);
ComReset(COM_2);

The command ComInit informs SuperCom of the configuration of the serial interface. ComSetState initializes the serial interface with the new transmission parameters and flow control. The command RS_TXPacket transmits the data packet str through the serial interface and ComReset closes each action on the serial interface and reinstalls the old state of the interface.
