I'm trying to read some information from the serial port, but when I really open the connection, it throws an unauthorized access exception
This code reads in port names
SerialPort port = new SerialPort();
string[] serialPorts = System.IO.Ports.SerialPort.GetPortNames();
public Page_Main()
{
InitializeComponent();
for (int i = 0; i < serialPorts.Count(); i++)
portBox.Items.Add(serialPorts[i]);
}
This is the code that is trying to get information from the serial port.
port.PortName = portBox.SelectedItem.ToString();
port.BaudRate = 9600;
port.DataBits = 8;
port.Parity = Parity.None;
port.StopBits = StopBits.One;
port.Open();// This is where the exception is thrown
serialOutput.Text = port.ReadLine();
