Serial

Introduction
The Serial Nodes allow the user to connect to serial devices -- like GPS devices -- via USB or serial ports using Serial Communication. Serial Communication sends single bits of data at a time, sequentially, through a communication channel/bus. To use the Serial Nodes in Incari, the user first needs to locate the Serial Attributes in Project Settings and add a Connection.
This form of Communication in Incari is available as a plugin and is enabled as default. However, in the case that it is disabled in the Plugins Editor, it will not appear in the Project Settings and render the Serial Nodes unavailable. Please refer to the Plugins Editor to find out more information.

These are the guidelines for incorporating Serial Communication into a Project.
To properly start a connection, see the General Guideline on the Communications Introduction page.
Once the connection has been established, there are several Nodes that cover important functions of Serial Communication.
​On Serial Error executes when an error is received.
​On Serial Packet Received executes when a Serial data Packet is received.
​Serial Send Packet sends a Serial data Packet.
To properly stop a connection, see the General Guideline on the Communications Introduction page.
