Using minicom to communicate with ChipSHOUTER

Hi Brad,

I’ve tried connecting to the ChipShouter and I’ve found the following:

  • Termite on Windows seems to work, but PuTTy doesn’t
  • In Linux, minicom and screen don’t seem to work
  • Configuring the serial port via stty (
    stty -F /dev/ttyUSB0 115200 min 1 ignbrk -brkint -icrnl -imaxbel -opost -onlcr -isig -icanon -iexten -echo -ecohe -echok -echoctl -echoke
    ) and then using echo and cat works. Minicom will configure most of this stuff on startup, so you may want to enter minicom and then exit immediately.

I’ll do some more experimenting and see if I can track down why some serial terminals work but others don’t.
