Serial Framework The Serial Framework is a Software Development Kit (SDK) that simplifies serial port communication (COM, UART, RS232) for developers on Windows and macOS. Streamline your interaction with modems, barcode scanners, IoT devices, and other serial equipment with our robust and easy-to-use API. While it is a part of the Wireless Communication Library, the Serial Framework is designed to be a fully functional, standalone serial library. Note: Native macOS support is available starting from version 8.0.0.0.
