Can I use a USB-to-Serial adapter (or any other interface board/adapter) with Docklight?
My script stops with an error message that says “Not allowed inside the Sub DL_OnSend() or Sub DL_OnReceive() subroutine”, even though the command in question is definitively not executed within a Sub DL_OnSend() or Sub DL_OnReceive() procedure. What is wrong here?
