Troi Serial Plug-in
Troi Serial Plug-in is copyright 1999 of Troi Automatisering. All rights reserved (23-Feb-1999).
Thank you for your interest in Troi Serial Plug-in. This plug-in adds functions to access the serial ports to FileMaker Pro 4.0 (or higher).
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
INSTALLING A (TROI) PLUG-IN FOR THE FIRST TIME.
-For Macintosh: put the file "Troi Serial Plug-in" from the folder "MacOS Plug-in" into the
"FileMaker Extensions" folder in the FileMaker Pro 4.0
folder. If you have installed previous
versions of this plug-in, you must remove them.
-For Windows: put the file "trserial.fmx" from the directory "Windows Plug-in" into the "SYSTEM"
subdirectory in the FileMaker Pro 4.0 directory. If you have installed previous versions of this
plug-in, you must remove them.
You may want to install other plug-ins before proceeding. Then (re)start FileMaker Pro. You can now open the file "SeriExpl.fp3" to see how to use the plug-in's f
unctions.
There is also a Function Overview in this file.
Warning:
There is a problem in FileMaker 4.0v1. Please make sure that all plug-ins that are in the folder "FileMaker Extensions" are enabled in the preferences (Under Edit/ Preferences/ Application/ Plug-ins). Make sure all plug-ins have a cross before their name. Remove plug-ins you don't use from the "FileMaker Extensions" folder. Windows users find the plug-ins in the "SYSTEM" subdirectory in the FileMaker Pro 4.0 directory
. NB: This bug is fixed in version 4.1 and in 4.0v2.
What Troi Serial Plug-in can do for you:
This plug-in can read and write to any serial port that is available on you computer.
Troi Serial Plug-in was designed and implemented by Peter Baanen of Troi Automatisering <peter@troi.nl>.
You can visit the Troi web site at: <http://www.troi.com/> for additional information.
Troi may also be reached by postal m

Where can I get the latest version and more information?
The latest versions of our software are available for downloading at our web site: <http://www.troi.com/>
Here you will also find late breaking information, company information, FileMaker tips and more. Our software will also be posted (with
a week delay) to info-mac (and its mirrors). Go to: <http://www.pht.c
om/info-mac> or <http://hyperarchive.lcs.mit.edu/HyperArchive.html>.
System Requirements
This software should be able to run on any machine that is able to run FileMaker Pro 4.0. Of course you need a copy of FileMaker Pro, this should be a version 4.0v1 or later. This may be the US version or any other localization.
You can try-before-you-buy. This means that you are free and in
vited to test the plug-in 30 days before you pay. You may also make copies of the original and complete package (including this Read Me file) and distribute it to customers, friends etc. However, you may not distribute a modified or licenced version.
Use Troi Serial Plug-in at your own risk:
Although Troi Serial Plug-in was tested carefully, we can not be responsible for any damages resulting from using this software. Also please try it out on a test database. Your system may be using an
extension (unknown to us) that interferes with the proper functioning of Troi Serial Plug-in.
We like to hear feedback on the benefits and shortcomings of the plug-in. Please include the platform and operating system in your suggestions and comments.
What are the costs?
Troi Serial plug-in has the following pricing:
Serial
plug-in
1 or more single user licenses (per user): $ 65
Site license:
$ 325
World-wide license: $ 525
Developer distribution license: $ 220
A Site License covers all locations for your organization within a 160 kilometer radius of your site (100 miles). One big advantage of a Site License is that you do not need to keep track of how many people at your site are using the software. A World-Wide License covers all locations for your organization on the planet earth.
Special licenses for developers of File
Maker Pro solutions are available. Also sub-licensing is possible. Please contact Troi for information about this. Plug-ins do not work with the FileMaker Pro SDK version 3.0. This plug-in works with the 4.0 Developer edition version.
How to pay?
Paying for a license is easy. There are 4 ways to pay:
1) Pay via Kagi with the enclosed Register program
2) Pay via Kagi Online at <http://order.kagi.com/?5i>
3) Pay via Waves in Motion online at <http://www.wmotion.com/>
4) Pay Troi Automatis
ering directly (only for users in the Netherlands)
1) Pay Kagi with the enclosed Register program
Kagi is a trustworthy payment service which handles payment for a lot of users and software authors . As of end of Nov 1997 Kagi already processed 338505 payments.
To pay open the Register program that accompanies Troi Text Plug-in. Enter your name, your email address, and the number of single user licenses you desire for each program you wish to purchase (or Site or World-Wide licenses). Sav
e or Copy or Print the data from the Register program and send the data and payment to Kagi. More specifics on the Register program to follow. Kagi handles my payment processing.
If paying with Credit Card or First Virtual, you can email or fax the data to Kagi. Their email address is sales@kagi.com and their fax number is +1 510 652-6589. You can either Copy the data from Register and paste into the body of an email message or you can Save the data to a file and you can attach that file
to an email message. There is no need to compress the data file, it's already pretty small. If you have a fax modem, just Print the data to the Kagi fax number.
Payments sent via email are processed within 3 to 4 days. You will receive an email acknowledgment when it is processed. Payments sent via fax take up to 10 days and if you provide a correct internet email address you will receive an email acknowledgment.
If you are paying with Cash or USD Check you should print the data using
the Register application and send it to the address shown on the form, which is:
1442-A Walnut Street #392-5I
Berkeley, California 94709-1405
You can pay with a wide variety of cash from different countries but at present if you pay via check, it must be a check drawn in US Dollars. Kagi cannot accept checks in other currencies, the conversion rate for non-USD checks is around USD 15 per check and that is just not practical.
If you have a purchasing department, you can enter
all the data into the Register program and then select Invoice as your payment method. Print three copies of the form and send it to your accounts payable people. You might want to highlight the line that mentions that they must include a copy of the form with their payment. Kagi can not invoice your company, you need to act on my behalf and generate the invoice and handle all the paperwork on your end.
Please do not fax or email payment forms that indicate Cash, Check or Invoice as the
payment method. As far as we know, there is still no technology to transfer physical objects via fax or email and without the payment, the form cannot be processed.
Payments sent via postal mail take time to reach Kagi and then up to 10 days for processing. Again, if you include a correct email address, you will hear from Kagi when the form is processed.
2) Pay via Kagi Online
See under 1) for a description of what Kagi payment service is.
Kagi has a web page where you can pay via Cred
it Card. Point your web browser at <http://order.kagi.com/?5i> Fill in the form and follow the instructions.
3) Pay via Waves in Motion
This Troi plug-in is also distributed by Waves in Motion. Waves in Motion has a web page where you can pay via Credit Card and directly download a full working version after payment. Point your web browser at <http://www.wmotion.com/Products.html>. Fill in the form and follow the instructions.
4) Pay Troi Automatisering directly
(only for users in Th
e Netherlands)
Please use option 1 or 2 (Pay Kagi) if you live outside the Netherlands.
But if you live in The Netherlands you can pay as follows:
Use the following rates:
1 single user license, fl 120,-- per user
Site License fl 600,--
World-Wide License fl 1000,--
Distribution license: fl 400,--
Please pay the appropriate amount to:
Bank Name: Postbank NV, Amsterdam
Postgiro Account number: 72.29.209

To indicate
for which software you are paying, add this remark:
5ISM (Troi Serial Plug-in Macintosh ) x number of copies
and/or
5ISW (Troi Serial Plug-in Windows) x number of copies
Protection and Unlocking the plug-in
Troi Serial Plug-in has a protection scheme. After you pay Troi Automatisering will tell you how to indicate to Troi Serial Plug-in that you have paid the license fee.
If you do not have an e-mail address, please enter your complete postal address and remember, we do not know w
hat country you live in so please enter that into the postal address also.
After you've supplied the payment data the following is changed:
- the
unregistered
warning is replaced by your name.
- the startup delay (which is longer after 30 days of use) and the OK button will be removed.
If you find a bug, please report this by e-mail: peter@troi.nl. If you have any comments or other functions that
you think need to be added, please notify us! We have a lot of ideas for plug-ins, so be sure to check our web site for new versions.
Versions
1.0 (23-2-1999)
- Added Serial-ToASCII function, which takes one or more numbers and converts them to their ASCII characters.
- Fixed a bug on Mac OS machines, which caused parameters to parse incorrectly. For example with the Serial-open command, settings parameters like "-baud=1200" would not to be interpretted right, causing to default it to 9
w600 baud.
1.0b2 (19-1-98) Second Beta release
- Windows: fixed a bug were the plug-in sometimes would not bring the right dispatch file to the front, especially with 4.0 runtimes and whit extensions like .fp3 were hidden. This bug only appeared when the database was in the background.
1.0b1 (13-1-98) First Beta release
