CC2340R5: Correctly setting up Log Framework with LogSinkUART and visualizing the log output

Dear TI Team

I am trying to use the Log Framework with LogSinkUART.
What I would like to ask is what configuration and tooling I can use to get a valid log visualization.

My setup

• LP-EM-CC2340R5 LaunchPad connected to the XDS110 Debug Probe.
• The debug probe is connected to my Linux Host via USB.
• Log Example project from SIMPLELINK-LOWPOWER-F3-SDK V7.40.00.64 modified to use the LogSinkUART in LogModule_App1

Modifications to the sample project

1. Edited the LogModule_App1 to use /ti/log/LogSinkUART:
   

   

2. Changed Baud Rate to 115200 and set Use Hardware to XDS110 UART.
   
   
3. Added to log.c:
   

   #include <ti/log/LogSinkUART.h>

4. Removed from log.c:
   

   #include <ti/log/LogSinkITM.h>

Read Log output

I read the log output from the terminal on my linux host using the following settings:

• Baud Rate 115200
• Data length 8 bits
• Parity None
• Stop bits 1 bit
• Flow Control None

The output is not what I am expecting from the project code:

In the LogSinkUART.h File Reference I read that the data must be decoded by the host and I suspect, this is why I am seeing no readable output, is this correct?

I saw that you have a TI Log Tool User's Guide where the tilogger UART description mentions that is intended for the UART LogSink module.

The user guide also states:

Am I correct in assuming, that I must use this tool in order to decode the log output from UART? And if this is the case, do you know if there is/will be an option to read the log from UART using a Linux system?

If there is anything I did wrong in the setup of the log project or the visualization of the log I would be very thankful if you could point me into the right direction.
