    ok, lets simplify your code, I assume receive and aknowmntare QTextEdits or QTextBrowser, since they have a toPlainTextfunction

    void MainWindow::checkAndSendData()
    {
        if(!m_lines.isEmpty()){
            QByteArray baToSend = m_lines.takeFirst().toUtf8();
            serial->write(baToSend);
            ui->aknowmnt->append("Sent Message --> "+ QString(baToSend));
        } else {
            ui->aknowmnt->append("All are send ");
        }
    }
    
    void MainWindow::serialReceived()
    
    {
        QString glen = serial->readAll();
        if (glen.length()>0){
             ui->receive->append( "Received -->" + QString(glen));
        }
       QMetaObject::invokeMethod(this, &MainWindow::checkAndSendData, Qt::QueuedConnection);
    
    }

      Yes i have tried this method , the correct data is not shown in the receiver side ..

      you're obviously receiving non ascii bytes

      void MainWindow::serialReceived()
      
      {
          QByteArray glen = serial->readAll();
          if (glen.length()>0){
               ui->receive->append( QString("Received --> %1").arg(QString(glen.toHex(' ')));
          }
         QMetaObject::invokeMethod(this, &MainWindow::checkAndSendData, Qt::QueuedConnection);
      
      }

        And the next below image is shown as a data send as some thing different

        Even Now also i did not get the exact output sir what should i do i am stuck here .. @J-Hilk

          @sankarapandiyan Maybe it is a silly question, but are you sure the serial settings your are using, are correct?

          • 115200 bauds?
          • 8 bits?

          Are you using a crossed/null modem serial cable? ==> cf https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Null_modem.

            @KroMignon I am Using hl-340 usb-serial adapter . so here , what i want to give as a baud rate.

            void MainWindow::on_pushButton_clicked()
            {
                serial = new QSerialPort (this) ;
                serial->setPortName(ui->comboBox->currentText());
                serial->setBaudRate (QSerialPort::Baud115200);
                serial->setDataBits(QSerialPort::Data8);
                serial->setParity (QSerialPort::NoParity);
                serial->setStopBits (QSerialPort::OneStop);
                serial->setFlowControl(QSerialPort::NoFlowControl);
                serial->open(QIODevice::ReadWrite);
                connect(serial,SIGNAL(readyRead()),this, SLOT (serialReceived()));
                ui->progressBar->setValue(100);

              Okay, that's for having a RS232 port on you PC, but to connect two PC you need a "null modem" cable (to cross Tx and Rx signal between the 2 serial ports).
              Have you something like this?

                  @sankarapandiyan Okay, so the hardware side seems to be right. Can you give your software environnement:

                  • Operation system you are using (Linux ? Windows? MacOS?)
                  • Qt Kit Version you are using (not Qt Creator version!)
