PHP and Server's Serial Ports

Vinu Thomas gives you a solution for the enquiries of how to get PHP to communicate with the server’s serial port. With a quick Google search, he turned up with the following information:

PHP Serial Extension

He says, this PHP extension for Windows allows you to communicate directly with the serial port through PHP.

He gives the this link for installation, instructions and usage.

PHP Serial Class

Vinu cites this PHP class for a solution in Linux. He also initiates you about a PHP serial class in PHPClasses web site, which allows you to interact with your serial ports in Linux.

He gives this link to the class.
