Can you please help me look for nice tutorials on printing the value from the serial monitor of the arduino to my Visual Basic program? I am successful in sending data to the serial port already, is it possible to have to serial ports in the VB?

Salut,

you may have a look at my arduino dashboard that handles the serial communication between the Arduino and Visual Basic.http://www.mathias-wilhelm.de/arduino/projects/arduino-dashboard/. The project can be downloaded as well as the executable http://www.mathias-wilhelm.de/arduino/download/ - Screenshot:


Ciao, Mathias

i think what he wants, like me, is to write a program that can act exactly like a serial monitor on the IDE, but have it output on a console application.

I don't know much about VB. I saw people using MSCOMM32.OCX for serial communication.

Is link below useful?

If you are using VB.Net, you should read this article.
