To use your FTDI device as an asynchronous serial port perform the following actions. A complete serial port sample program can be found in the samples. Its name is Simple.
Device[] devices = FTDIInterface.getDevices(); if (devices.length == 0) { // Error handling } Device dev = devices[0]; dev.open(); dev.setDataCharacteristics(FTDIConstants.FT_BITS_8, FTDIConstants.FT_STOP_BITS_2, FTDIConstants.FT_PARITY_NONE); dev.setBaudRate(FTDIConstants.FT_BAUD_9600); dev.setTimeouts(2000, 2000); // use the device dev.write((byte) 0x41); // 'A' dev.write((byte) 0x42); // 'B' dev.write((byte) 0x43); // 'C' dev.close();
