hello im designing a full online ordering system. so far a user places an order online and it gets sent through a tcp socket to a server at the store, then a program i wrote will phrase your order to your receipt and print it on a serial thermal printer.
all the computer side programing was done by me in autoit, with printing udf.
in the past i have designed a gps program using their serial port udf.
this time around i want to use their serial port udf to display status and input user feedback.
i was looking at this for an example
basically i need to be able to turn on and off 10 led's 2 being normal led's and the other 8 are really 4 led's but bicolor(each color probably in parallel?), and i also need 3 momentary push buttons to send like a bit or something back to the computer so i can acknowledge a pressed button.
im not sure where to start, if anyone has any suggestion on design or parts to use or something please post it.
any information would be greatly appropriated, thank you.
cheers
