You'll want to look into the EZ-SDK, which contains all of the function commands for the C# and VB controls within ARC

Load ARC, select File->Examples and load any of the C# examples to begin

you can download the EZ-SDK by clicking on the Downloads link at the menu. The file is a ZIP file, and windows should natively open it. If not, you can use Winrar or Winzip.

For advanced functions, you can use the VB or C# controls. Use the File->Examples to load a sample project to start.

You can connect to the ARC via command line. View the Connection Control help in the ARC manual. Or click on the ? in the Connection control for a video help.

There is no one line code for communicating through the serial port or a parallel port. Unless your thinking of just using a serial terminal to which you have to setup. For serial you have settings: baud rate, data bits, stop bit and so forth. A serial terminal allows for communications through a specified port but only if you enter the settings for the correct communication settings for the device attached to that port. This is how the ez-b communicates with your computer.

@hamada you can connect to serial ports and input using the C# and VB controls within ARC. View the EZ-SDK documentation for assistance. Use MSDN for applicable Serial controls.
