Hey all. I've worked with matlab on my XP computer, doing various serial communications things. I recently got a new computer with Vista, and for some reason, the "serial" command does not seem to be working, I get the response:
??? Error using ==> serial.serial at 57 The serial port object is supported on the Solaris, 32-bit Windows and 32-bit Linux platforms only.
It's very odd as http://www.mathworks.com/help/techdoc/ref/serial.html explicitly says that the serial command DOES work with 64bit windows. So what am I doing wrong? My code is simply:
comm = serial('COM8','BaudRate',9600, 'Parity', 'none','DataBits',8,'StopBits',1); fopen(comm);
Thanks!
