手上有個CCD Camera(Barcode Reader/Scanner Module)，它是通過RS232通訊的，用RS232轉USB的轉接線連線樹莓派，即可完成硬體連線。對於串列埠通訊，可以通過pyserial實現。

首先，安裝pyserial：

tar zxvf pyserial-2.7.tar.gz
cd pyserial-2.7
python setup.py install

通過命令lsusb檢視串列埠是否存在：

通過命令python -m serial.tools.list_ports可以檢視大可用的埠：

測試通訊：

通過以上的準備後，就可以寫一個簡單的Python程式來實現串列埠通訊：

import serial
from time import sleep
ser = serial.Serial('/dev/ttyUSB0', 9600, timeout=0.5) 
def recv(serial):  
    data
    while True:  
        data =serial.read(30)  
        if data == '':  
            continue
        else:
            break
        sleep(0.02) 
    return data  
while True:  
    data =recv(ser)  
    ser.write(data)
 

來自官網的Sample(wxTerminal.py)也很不錯，可以通過UI選擇和配置埠：
