Send a string of characters out a communications port. The port must have been previously opened with the OpenComPort or OpenComPortEx call.
Some devices that you are communicating with require a special character to terminate the string of characters you are sending to it. For example, a modem needs a carriage-return (CR) at the end of the string you send to it before it will be recognized. Some devices may require a carriage-return and a line-feed character, others perhaps something entirely different. Please be aware of the requirements of the device you are communicating with. If you require hardware handshaking on the communications port, please see the SetComPortRTSDTR command.
