Few things... Socket programming beyond the trivial examples can be confusing so here is what you need to know. 1) Your RFID reader needs to open a connection to the server on a specific port. So you reader should be programmed to send messages to 192.168.1.12 on port 9999. In your code...

Chances are you can't, not without significant changes. The use of a textBox implies it's being entered direct from the RFID reader as keyboard data - and there is your problem: Windows does not store the "source" of keyboard input at all, so there is no way for your program to determine which...

You should try out the Paypal API.https://developer.paypal.com/webapps/developer/docs/integration/direct/accept-credit-cards/[^]You can store the data locally and transmit it later to the servers.Please be aware that storing credit card info is critical and needs proper work.

11 Jun 2016 by Sergey Alexandrovich Kryukov
General-purpose RFID physical operation is unsuitable for measuring distances.The only thing I could think of is this, which you can use with RSSI, but you hardly can hope to get any acceptable accuracy. In radio domain, the principles of measurements are that of radar:Radar — Wikipedia, the...
11 Jun 2016 by Dave Kreskowiak
No, there is no way for you to measure distance to the tag with any accuracy and/or reliability at all.The consumer grade RFID technology is just not setup to do that.

You're not going to such an adapter. Your "adapter" would have to be smart enough to know that it's connected to a keyboard HID device and how to translate "keystrokes" to serial data. Your problem is that you're using a "keyboard wedge" scanner. The scanner exposes itself as a keyboard to the...

Take a look at the SDK, this even allows using networked printers: Evolis Premium SDK (Software Development Kit) for card printers | Evolis[^] But my first thought would be that ASP.NET is not the right choice for doing this kind of thing.

You don't make multiple instances of the API SDK. That's not a thing at all. How you do this depends on the interface of the device. How do these thing connect to the PC?

Unless your RFID readers have some mechanism on them that advertises their existence on the network, you'll have to poll each and every IP address in your corporate address space to see if it's a RFID reader.If there's an SDK for this thing, consult the documentation to see if there's a...

Porbably you need a TCP server on your PC (C# application) and a TCP client on your nodeMCU. You may find many examples of both on the web.
28 Mar 2018 by Mehdi Gholam
Communicating with RFID devices is done through a serial port (usb port) which is the simple part. Writing UI for your application is the hard part, doing it in c++ if you have little experience is counter productive, try a simpler more forgiving language like c# or java instead.
