read and write in a serial port with python

1 New Member
How can I read and write a radio connected to the computer with a serial port with python, the same way a hyperterminal does ?
I wrote this:

from Tkinter import *
import serial
se = serial.Serial()
se.baudrate = 9600
se.bytesize = 8
se.parities = 0
se.stopbits = 1
se.xonxoff = 0
se.rtscts = 0
se.timeout = 1
se.port = 0
print se.portstr
print se
se.close()

It seems to work, but when I try to communicate using
se.write('at')
se.readl([20])

I don't receive the expected answer, and it just reads what I wrote.

Someone can help me?

Hi

I've used pySerial successfully in the past, though not with a radio. I found it to work pretty well in general, or at least the python part! Can you give us some more details? For example, what was the print out from the first bit of code you gave? Is there a particular reason for the parameters you choose there? Can you give us the exact print out for the second piece of code, and what you were expecting?

I'd like to read ASCII data from a serial port, but (once again) I'm having trouble getting started. (Can't seem to find the basic level of docs to get going <sigh>) I'd like to use only standard "built-in" modules if possible. Could somebody offer a simple code-snippet to get me started reading from a serial port? Thanks!

I'm writing a driver in Python for an old fashioned piece of serial equipment. Currently I'm using the USPP serial module. From what I can see all the serial modules seem to set the timeout when you open a serial port. This is not what I want to do. I need to change the timeout each time I do a "read" on the serial port, depending on which part of the protocol I've got to. Sometimes a return character is expected within half a second,...

Hi, I am newbie in python. I am working on Telit GM862 GPS/GPRS module which has python interpreter built in. But it seems this problem is pretty much related to general python structure. I need a promt/terminal when the device is connected to PC. If user enters a command by serial port and press "Enter" then the data is read by the device and work on the command. This is similar to readline() function. Unfortunately there is no...

Hi, I am using the pyserial module and am trying to read the serial port from an accelerometer (LIS302DL). It has an option in which you write "*debug\r\n" and then you read the data (three axes output) from the output. I use hyperterminal with the below settings and it works fine: baudrate=115200 databits=8
