Specifies errors that occur on the SerialPort object.
Assembly: System (in System.dll)
| Member name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| TXFull | The application tried to transmit a character, but the output buffer was full. | |
| RXOver | An input buffer overflow has occurred. There is either no room in the input buffer, or a character was received after the end-of-file (EOF) character. | |
| Overrun | A character-buffer overrun has occurred. The next character is lost. | |
| RXParity | The hardware detected a parity error. | |
| Frame | The hardware detected a framing error. |
This enumeration can be useful when handling the ErrorReceived event to detect and respond to errors when communicating data through a SerialPort. You examine the type of error by retrieving the EventType property of the SerialErrorReceivedEventArgs class. The EventType property contains one of the values from the SerialError enumeration.
