what should I do to connect the serial device automatically with the filter device when it plug-in into the computer. I am using web serial API to connect serial devices.
To open a serial port, first access a SerialPort
object. For this, you can either prompt the user to select a single serial port by calling navigator.serial.requestPort()
in response to a user gesture such as touch or mouse click, or pick one from navigator.serial.getPorts()
which returns a list of serial ports the website has been granted access to.
document.querySelector('button').addEventListener('click', async () => {
// Prompt user to select any serial port.
const port = await navigator.serial.requestPort();
});
// Get all serial ports the user has previously granted the website access to.
const ports = await navigator.serial.getPorts();
If a serial port is provided by a USB device then that device may be connected or disconnected from the system. When the website has been granted permission to access a serial port, it should monitor the connect and disconnect events.
navigator.serial.addEventListener("connect", (event) => {
const port = event.target;
// TODO: Automatically open port or warn user a port is available.
});
Once you have a SerialPort object, calling port.open()
with the desired baud rate will open the serial port.
// Wait for the serial port to open.
await port.open({ baudRate: 9600 });
