Java Virtual Machine that runs AggreGate Server needs a special Java Communication API driver to be able to communicate with Serial devices (RS-232, RS-482, etc.). This driver is automatically installed by the AggreGate Server Installer for Microsoft Windows operating system. For other operating systems, the Java Communication API driver has to be manually installed to get access to Serial devices.
|
If the Java Commmunication API driver is not properly installed, Serial device's Connection Settings will not contain the list of serial ports available in the system. |
To install the Java Communication API for your operating system, follow these instructions:
1. Download the Java Communication API for your operating system from Sun Java website. At the time of this writing, it is available at http://java.sun.com/products/javacomm/.
2. Follow the instructions contained in driver distribution package.

By default, the Java Virtual Machine that executes AggreGate Server is located in the /jre subdirectory of AggreGate Server installation. |
