Create virtual serial port pairsVirtual Serial Port Driver creates virtual serial ports and connects them in pairs via virtual null-modem cable. Applications on both ends of the pair will be able to exchange data in such a way, that everything written to the first port will appear in the second one and backwards. |
Full features list:
- Virtual serial ports are absolutely the same copies of real ones - other applications will never see the difference between real serial port and virtual serial port
- Virtual serial port can have the same name as real serial port (virtual serial port overlapping). In case of overlapping, the real serial port you overlap will be replaced with the virtual one
- Full support of HandFlow control (Hardware and Xon/Xoff)
- You can manage all signal lines (DTR/DSR/CTS/RTS/DCD/RI)
- Different virtual null-modem schemes are available: standard/loopback/custom (for Windows NT4/2000/XP/2003/Vista)
- VSPD uses advanced Windows kernel driver technology (supporting WDM, WMI, Power Management, PnP, etc.)
- Strict baudrate emulation (for Windows NT4/2000/XP/2003/Vista)
- Create virtual serial ports with any names which will be displayed in Device Manager (not only COMx)
- Easily manage port access list, which is used to restrict access to created ports for various applications (for Windows 2000/XP/2003/Vista)
- Easily emulate virtual serial line connection break (for Windows NT4/2000/XP/2003/Vista)
- Virtual Serial Port Driver is completely compatible with Windows Vista, 32-bit and 64-bit editions
- "Hot" virtual ports installation - no reboot required after installation, creation or reconfiguration of virtual serial ports
- Virtual Serial Port Driver and all of its internal modules are digitally signed
- You can create as many virtual serial port pairs as you want
- You can control virtual serial ports directly from your own application using Dynamic Link Library supplied with Virtual Serial Port Driver
- Real serial ports are not occupied (actually, you can even have no real serial ports in your system and work with virtual ones)
- Link between virtual serial ports is much faster than real null-modem cable connection and solely depends on your processor speed. Average transfer speed is about 35-40 Kbytes/sec
- Virtual link is much more reliable than common physical link
- Printers can be assigned to any created virtual serial ports
- Get complete information about current virtual serial port state, sent/received data volumes, and other options (for Windows NT4/2000/XP/2003/Vista)
- Ports are automatically re-created on system reboot (prior to user login)
- Hyper-threading and VMware friendly
- User-friendly and convenient program interface
- Completely new reworked and redesigned Serial Ports Explorer, which helps you get full information about all serial ports used in system

- OEM documentation on how to work with our driver directly
- Example for creating a class which demonstrates the possibility to create the ports like in VSPD (visible and invisible ports)
- vspdctl.DLL - wrapper for a driver for manipulations with virtual serial ports on a higher level
To let you evaluate the OEM license before purchasing, we are ready to send you the OEM Evaluation Kit, so you can try integrating Virtual Serial Port Driver into your project. The documents will be sent to you upon your request.
Supported IDEs
You will be able to use Virtual Serial Port Driver OEM license in the following IDEs: Borland Delphi, C++ Builder, Microsoft VC++, Microsoft Visual Basic, Visual Basic.Net, Visual Studio C#, Visual C.Net, some other "exotic" IDEs which our clients randomly report us about.
SOURCE CODE LICENSE
for Virtual Serial Port DriverOrdering Source Code license for Virtual Serial Port Driver you receive all extensively commented programming source code of the driver (GUI sources are not included). In addition, we provide technical and information lifetime support by email, IMs and phone, and high-end consulting services.
