 Unlimited
Serial Ports
accessible Sax CommStudio
Sax CommStudio supports a large variety of serial
port connections:
- Standard built-in serial ports
- Virtual serial ports on other systems via
network software.
- Bluetooth and infrared serial ports.
- High performance serial ports using
specialised hardware such as Digi boards.
The number of serial ports supported on a single
system is only limited by hardware. Some of our
customers use our components with over one hundred
ports on each communications server.
Plug & Play Modems
made easy with Sax CommStudio
Let the Windows Telephony API (TAPI) do all the
hard work for you and you never worry about modem
configurations again!
In addition to modem device independence, your
users will also enjoy automatic handling of dialling
rules based on the user's location and area code.
Reduce technical support and increase end user
satisfaction by using the settings defined in the
the Windows Control Panel.
Note: The .NET components in the
current release of Sax CommStudio don't include TAPI
support. If you purchase today, your subscription
will include a free update with this feature when it
becomes available.
Fast & Reliable File Transfers
with Sax CommStudio
Ten years of intense interactions with thousands
of different systems have resulted in a core of very
robust, highly interoperable transfer code.
Classic XModem and YModem protocols (also Kermit
in the ActiveX components) will let you interface
with a large variety of systems, from the smallest
devices to the largest mainframe systems.
For ultimate performance and flexibility you can
use Sax CommStudio's industry-standard ZModem
implementation.
You'll enjoy advanced error recovery, automatic
streaming, and block size adjustment to get the
fastest transfer under even the most difficult
bandwidth circumstances.
Data Mining
Sax CommStudio
Many legacy applications were designed
for use by human operators using a text based
interface.
With Sax CommStudio it's easy to
automate these transactions and create a modern user
interface with the speed and ease of use that your
users have come to expect.
Sax CommStudio includes the powerful text
scanning and triggering features you need to write
automated login scripts and build data mining
applications.
Common User Interface
Sax CommStudio
Sax CommStudio comes with pre-made dialogs and UI
elements for common communications related tasks:
- File transfer status dialogs, including
progress bars and statistics.
- Settings dialogs for serial ports and modem
settings.
- Other UI elements such a common toolbar and
general status dialogs.
Increase developer productivity and provide your
users with a consistent interface.
Terminal Emulation
Sax CommStudio
A surprising number of applications still rely on
mainframe-style terminal emulation. Sax CommStudio
helps you integrate these legacy applications with a
modern systems architecture.
The ActiveX component supports ANSI, VT52, and
VT100 terminal emulation in full colour, with
scroll-back history, mouse selection, and fast
screen painting.
Building a robust terminal emulator requires more
than just following a terminal specifications. Sax
CommStudio has been proven to work flawlessly with
the subtleties of thousands of systems, from
bulletin board systems to credit report services.
 Diagnostics
Sax CommStudio
Sax CommStudio's robust communications components
based on ten years of market leadership are only the
beginning. The real gain in developer productivity
comes from Sax CommStudio's advanced debugging and
analysing tools.
Detailed logging and visual analysing of problem
areas let you zoom in on the point of failure in
minutes rather than days.
The integration of rock solid components with
visual diagnostic tools provides a unique advantage,
and results in considerable gains in developer
productivity and code quality.
Note: The Sax CommStudio
Analyser shown in the screen shot is not part of the
current release. It will be offered free of charge
as part of your subscription.
Designed for .NET
Sax CommStudio
Sax CommStudio was designed from the ground up
with a powerful, easy to use object model that is
fully integrated with the Microsoft .NET Framework.
The result is a well-designed class library that
combines increased developer productivity with a
high degree of scalability and robustness./
ActiveX and VB6
Serial and Modem
Communications
Sax.net developed the original MSComm control in
Microsoft Visual Basic. We went on to develop
Crescent PDQComm and Sax ActiveX Comm Objects.
The ActiveX components in Sax CommStudio are
compatible with all previous generations, requiring
no or minimal code changes to upgrade.
Replacing your existing control with Sax Comm
Studio will speed up the development process,
increase the quality of your application, and reduce
technical support. That means less work for you, and
more satisfaction for your customers.
Visual Studio .NET Integration
Sax CommStudio
As a Microsoft Visual Studio Integration Partner,
Sax.net works closely with the Visual Studio and
.NET Framework development teams to closely
integrate Sax.net products with Microsoft's
frameworks and development tools.
Early disclosure of Microsoft product plans,
access to alpha releases, specialised support
services, and participation in developer labs on
Microsoft's Redmond campus ensure that Sax.net can
offer developer the tools they need to maximise
their productivity.
