Corrections required in order to communicate with RS 232 with MS Access VBA

The communication code VBA for RS 232 has failed, it cannot transmit any data to the Rs 232 gadget kindly help me to locate where the problem is. There are no errors whatsoever during transmit ion but the data does not go or written to the com port 4. The json part is okay and confirmed by the users I’m also able to see the results by using text file instead of on an Immediate window. The requirement here is to write data, send and receive data from rs 232 gadget.

VBA CODE RS 232

Dim json As String
    Dim intPortID As Integer ' Ex. 1, 2, 3, 4 for COM1 - COM4
    Dim lngStatus As Long
    Dim strError  As String
    Dim strData   As String
    Dim lngSize As Long
    intPortID = 4
    ' Initialize Communications
    lngStatus = CommOpen(intPortID, "COM" & CStr(intPortID), _
        "baud=115200 parity=N data=8 stop=1")
    
    If lngStatus <> 0 Then
    ' Handle error.
        lngStatus = CommGetError(strError)
    MsgBox "COM Error: " & strError
    End If
    

    ' Set modem control lines.
    lngStatus = CommSetLine(intPortID, LINE_RTS, True)
    lngStatus = CommSetLine(intPortID, LINE_DTR, True)

    ' Write data to serial port.
    strData = JsonConverter.ConvertToJson(transaction, Whitespace:=3)
    lngSize = Len(strData)
    lngStatus = CommWrite(intPortID, strData)
    If lngStatus <> lngSize Then
    ' Handle error.
    End If
Exit_CmdConertJson_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_Handler:
Resume Exit_CmdConertJson_Click

' Read maximum of 64 bytes from serial port.

Dim JSONS As Object

    lngStatus = CommRead(intPortID, strData, 14400)

Set rs = db.OpenRecordset("tblEfdReceipts")
    If lngStatus > 0 Then
' Process data.
Set JSONS = JsonConverter.ParseJson(strData)
    ElseIf lngStatus < 0 Then
Beep
MsgBox "There is no data to updated
        ' Handle error.
        On Error Resume Next
    End If
        ' Process data.
  
    Z = 2
  For Each item In JSONS
           With rs
         
            .AddNew
            rs![TPIN] = item("TPIN")
            rs![TaxpayerName] = item("TaxpayerName")
            rs![Address] = item("Address")
            rs![ESDTime] = item("ESDTime")
            rs![TerminalID] = item("TerminalID")
            rs![InvoiceCode] = item("InvoiceCode")
            rs![InvoiceNumber] = item("InvoiceNumber")
            rs![FiscalCode] = item("FiscalCode")
            rs![TalkTime] = item("TalkTime")
            rs![Operator] = item("Operator")
            rs![Taxlabel] = item("TaxItems")("TaxLabel")
            rs![CategoryName] = item("TaxItems")("CategoryName")
            rs![Rate] = item("TaxItems")("Rate")
            rs![TaxAmount] = item("TaxItems")("TaxAmount")
            rs![VerificationUrl] = item("TaxItems")("VerificationUrl")
            rs![INVID] = Me.InvoiceID
            rs.Update
        End With
        Z = Z + 1
    Next
      
      rs.Close
      Set rs = Nothing
      Set db = Nothing
      Set JSONS = Nothing
    
    'Reset modem control lines.
    lngStatus = CommSetLine(intPortID, LINE_RTS, False)
    lngStatus = CommSetLine(intPortID, LINE_DTR, False)

    'Close communications.
    Call CommClose(intPortID)

End Sub

Select all Open in new window

Now I have this gadget with me .


Data Structure as per gadget

<Header1><Header2><CmdID><Length><Content><CRC>

Field                                       Length(Byte)   Description
Header 1                                                   1       The first byte of package header 0x1A

Header 2                                                   1       The second byte of package header Ox5D

CmdID                                                           1       Command IDs:
                                                                    0x01 acquire the status of ESD
                                                                    0x02 invoice signing
                                                                    0x03 Error code

Length                                                     4       The length of the content, big-endian

Content                                                    ？       The Json based business data


CRC                                                     2       Two-Byte verification (CRC), it will be generated by bytes start from Header 1 up to content


The guide went on to say:

The contents oftheinterfaceprotocol includethreecommands (request/response), such as Get Interface Instruction for ESD and POS  Status, Invoice signing and error message. All the datawill beorganized in JSON formatstartingwith package header and endingwith checksum.It consists of Header, Command ID, Length of data, Content andVerification Code (CRC):
