    I can write code by specifying one port, but I can not write one after choosing multiple ports...i am a beginner sorry..

    @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

                      @segtteee Could you please show real code and the error message?
                      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

                                  "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.

                                    A: It turns blue.

                                        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...

                                          I write the above code , error not occured .
                                          Parity,Stopbits,flowcontrol , Can I do the same with them?
