Hi, I did have the port as /dev/ttyUSB0.

With sertest, it runs and you are offered /dev/ttyUSB0, but on opening the port, you get an exception error SIGSEGV at B68A1E00 and it seizes solid and you have to kill it!

OK, Thanks for your help. As I said, the author of Sdpo says there are problems with his 0.1.x component and I think this must be where the problem lies.

hello Paul,

it seems that you use a timer in your code to receive data from serial port. May be it is thread  and event used in TLazSerial that are the sources of problem on Raspi.

hello,
May be the reason why the events  don't work with synaser on Raspberry pi :

At the How to use UART of ARM platforms (e.g. Raspberry Pi ) through free Pascal?  question,  Dennis Poon said :

After some studying, synaser.pas seems to deal with com port instead of
the low level UART interface. After days of google search, I am afraid the bcm2835, the Soc of
Raspberry Pi (the hardware I have to use) does not provide this hardware
support :-(
It states that it does not even support interrupt. Polling is the only
way for events :-(

Yes (my code uses a timer), and thank you *very* much for helping to clear things up!

You, Sir, saved me from horrible headache and frustration and a lots of time.

I am working with GPS receiver in my project and my program had issues reading the whole NEMA text. Dropped your SdpoSerial. My program just took off.

Thank you so much.
Have a great day!
