TConnector ActiveX   
by TEC-IT Datenverarbeitung GmbH   

TConnector ActiveX makes data acquisition and communication easy!
Insert TConnector into VB, VC++, Excel, Access, WinWord, Delphi (and more) and build up a connection to any device (e.g. a barcode reader) within minutes. The unified API supports RS232 (serial port), parallel port (LPT), Intranet (TCP/IP), File-IO (a.m.) with only 3 function calls!
Supported modes: synchronous mode using read/write, event-triggered communication using the OnData event and keystroke simulation of incoming data (software wedge). The built-in TCP/IP support simplifies intranet-based applications considerably!
