Virtual Serial Port Driver PRO

Virtual Serial Port Driver PRO
Split serial ports and share serial data flows

RS232 Splitter is a versatile application that allows you to split one port among several applications in such way that they can all get the same data at the same time. Each application will communicate with a separate virtual port, while in reality they'll work with the same real port at a time. It is also possible to join several ports into one, redirect data from one port to another, create complex bundles. Serial Splitter works great with real COM ports as well as with virtual ones. 

With new version Virtual Serial Port Driver Pro (aka Serial Port Splitter) has added the switcher option to its baggage. Switcher allows to automatically determine the free port in the list of specified COM ports and assign it to the application that needs to work with it now. Moreover now Serial Splitter logs all events, so you can easily see which application opened the port and what parameters were used.

 

 

With Virtual Serial Port Driver PRO you can create

 

Create unlimited number of serial ports

 

With Virtual Serial Port Driver PRO allows you to create as many pairs of virtual serial ports as you need. Any data sent to one port in the pair is momentarily received by the other port. 

Virtual COM ports fully emulate real ones, so that applications don't see any difference.

 

One-to-many ports connection

 

With RS232 Splitter you can split one COM port into several virtual ones, which are exact copies of the original port in the system. For instance, Serial Splitter can split real COM1 into virtual COM2, COM3, COM4 ports. 

Alternatively you can share one real port with device connected to it (i.e. GPS-receiver) among many applications without splitting it to several different virtual COM ports.

 

Many-to-one ports connection

 

Serial Port Splitter can join any number of COM ports into one virtual serial port, thus allowing information from several devices to be received by a single application connected to the port at the OUT side of the bundle

 

Many-to-many ports connection

 

Serial Splitter and its easy-to-understand assisting charts let you arrange complex bundles of COM-ports. You will be able to establish a connection between any number of real and virtual serial ports in either incoming or outgoing direction. Besides serial port data transmission, Serial Splitter provides the option to set Main Port for each side (IN/OUT) to manage control lines of a corresponding serial port.

 

Ports switcher

 

With switcher you can enhance the work with those application that can work with a limited quantity of ports only. Simply specify one virtual port in such application and create a switcher for this port in Serial Splitter, where add all COM ports you'll need (and you can assign the same name to all of them for more convenient usage). So the program works with any free port Serial Splitter assigns to it as if it were always the same port.

 

Ports merging

 

The new feature of Serial Port Splitter will help you easily share serial data flows between an unlimited number of real and virtual COM ports joined into a single serial port bundle. The bundle is not divided into ‘IN’ and ‘OUT’ sides, which means every serial port added to it can communicate data with all the other COM interfaces at a time.

 

Run Virtual Serial Port Driver PRO as GPS Splitter

Virtual Serial Port Driver PRO offers various additional options that take GPS port splitting to the next level.

 

Split one GPS port into many

A single hardware port can be transformed into many virtual ports – applications connected to virtual ports get to receive the same data at the same time. 

Say, you have a GPS connection, access to which is required by multiple applications. GPS antenna splitter makes it possible – it divides the connection between many apps, so they can use it simultaneously. You do not have to close one application in order to let another one to use the connection.

 

Full control serial ports

GPS ports splitter grants you full control over your system ports – create, delete and disable them. Let us take the following example – there are two applications that need to talk to a GPS device and two ports (one is free, the other is infrared). You have to disable the infrared port and split the free one into two virtual ports so each application has a port to interact with.

GPS cable splitter can help you bundle multiple virtual ports, and you can share GPS data received by the ports between flows and direct it to other ports. You can also combine multiple flows into one.

 

Merge COM ports

The newest release of GPS Splitter offers a new advanced feature that allows merging serial ports by adding them to a single COM port bundle. There are no separate (IN/OUT) sides in the bundle, so all the data sent to one joined port can be immediately replicated to all the other ones. This makes it possible for multiple serial apps (devices) to simultaneously communicate the receiver GPS signals to other serial applications.

 

Reroute data

Functionality offered by GPS serial port splitter enables exchanging data between two devices. Serial ports can be configured according to requirements set by GPS applications. 

GPS signal data splitter has a number of flexible settings that will allow you to make most of its functionality.
