Problem running Gobetwino

Using Arduino Interfacing w/ Software on the Computer
11

Thi is the VB.net code that opens the serial port in GoBetwino:

  Public Sub serialPortOpen()

        'Configure and open the serial port

        'If the port is already open, close it first
        If serialPort.IsOpen Then
            serialPort.Close()
        End If

        Try
            With serialPort
                .PortName = settings.getSetting("serialPortName")
                .BaudRate = CInt(settings.getSetting("serialPortbaud"))
                'WARNING DO NOT CHANGE BELOW SETTINGS FOR USE WITH ARDUINO
                .Parity = CInt(settings.getSetting("serialPortParity"))
                .DataBits = CInt(settings.getSetting("serialPortDataBits"))
                .StopBits = CInt(settings.getSetting("serialPortStopBits"))
                .Handshake = CInt(settings.getSetting("serialPortHandShake"))
                'WARNING END :-)
                .Encoding = System.Text.Encoding.ASCII
                .NewLine = Chr(13) + Chr(10)
            End With

            'Open the port and clear any junck in the input buffer
            serialPort.Open()
            serialPort.DiscardInBuffer()
            statusAndLog("Serial port : " + serialPort.PortName + " opened at " + settings.getSetting("serialPortbaud") + " baud")

        Catch Ex As Exception
            statusAndLog("Can not open serial port : " + serialPort.PortName)
            statusAndLog(Ex.Message)
        End Try
    End Sub
