This Component provides make targets to support a serial terminal for communicating with devices.
The default serial terminal is miniterm. If you don't have it installed already, you can install it via pip using the following command:
make python-requirements
(You'll need python, of course.)
.. envvar:: COM_PORT
Default port for device communications. Default value depends on the development platform being used.
.. envvar:: COM_SPEED_SERIAL
Baud rate to use. Default is :envvar:`COM_SPEED`.
.. envvar:: COM_OPTS
Additional options to pass to the terminal.
.. envvar:: TERMINAL
Command line to use when running ``make terminal``.
Redefine if you want to use a different terminal application.
.. envvar:: KILL_TERM
Command line to use to kill the running terminal process
If the terminal never runs in the background and the warnings annoy you, just clear it.
