      @segtteee Then you should learn how to do it.
      Where does the user select the port? Is it a QComboBox? Something else?

          @segtteee Then just go to the documentation: http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qcombobox.html#currentText-prop
          Change

          mSerialport->setPortName("/dev/ttyUSB0");
          

          to

          mSerialport->setPortName(ui->comboBox->currentText()); // Change the name of the combobox if it's called differently in your code
          

          Really easy, isn't it? :-)

            I modified the port name as you told me. I also changed baudrate and databite equally, but here I get an error.
            "" no matching function for call to ‘QSerialPort::setBaudRate(QString)’
            mSerialport->setBaudRate(ui->comboBox_baudrate->currentText()); ""
            Can I change only the port name?

              If you want to hardcode all values in code, why do you put comboboxes in ui?

                @segtteee See the documentation: http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qserialport.html#baudRate-prop
                setBaudRate() takes an integer not a string.
                See again documentation to find out how to convert a string to an integer: http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qstring.html#toInt

                mSerialport->setBaudRate(ui->comboBox_baudrate->currentText().toInt());

                  I understand that the port name is a string, and baudrate is a number, so toint is an integer, but databits is a number, why not toint? And paritybits is a character, but it should not be used.

                    I don't understand. If it is a number then convert it to a number like baud rate.

                    "And paritybits is a character, but it should not be used" - don't know what you mean. If it should not be used then don't use it.

                      it mean
                      port name = string so currentText()
                      baud rate = integer so currentText().toint()

                      data bits = integer so ??
                      Is not the toint() correct for the data bits? but error occured

                        DataBits is an enum, so you can do something like:

                        DataBits dataBits;
                        if (ui->dataBits.currentText() == "Data5")
                            dataBits = DataBits::Data5;
                        else if ...

                                @segtteee First, please read what I write more carefully, second if you get an error please post it.
                                This is wrong:

                                if (ui->comboBox_databits->currentText() == "Data8")
                                    mSerialport->setDataBits("Data8") ;
                                

                                As I wrote above setDataBits takes an enum not a string - why do you try to pass a string?
                                You should really read documentation.
                                Here again the code I already posted before:

                                DataBits dataBits;
                                if (ui->dataBits.currentText() == "Data5")
                                    dataBits = DataBits::Data5;
                                else if ..
                                ...

                                  "DataBits dataBits; " is not written . what mean "DataBits dataBits;"?
                                  I read the docummets and see "QSerialPort::Data8"
                                  so I write
                                  "if (ui->comboBox_databits->currentText() == "Data8")
                                  mSerialport(QSerialPort::Data8); "
                                  but error occured

                                      @segtteee said in How can I see and storage the data from device in QT?:

                                      mSerialport(QSerialPort::Data8);

                                      I'm pretty sure thats not a valid constructor of QSerialPort and I'm even more sure that not want you want to do in this case, anyway.

                                      Q: What's that?
                                      A: It's blue light.
                                      Q: What does it do?
                                      A: It turns blue.

                                          @segtteee Change

                                          DataBits dataBits;
                                          

                                          to

                                          QSerialPort::DataBits dataBits;
                                          

                                          This does not make any sense:

                                          mSerialport(QSerialPort::Data8);
                                          

                                          must be

                                          mSerialport->setDataBits(QSerialPort::Data8);
                                          

                                          Also if you directly call mSerialport->setDataBits(QSerialPort::Data8); inside if then you do not need dataBits variable...
