Other Parts Discussed in Thread: EK-TM4C1294XL, EK-TM4C129EXL
Hi all,
I am working to make flexible test bench environment to test modules of my code. I am using a EK-TM4C1294XL evaluation kit for development. I have leveraged the serial communication of the ICDI UART0 connection to use the UARTPrintf function. I see the results of the printf in the terminal window of CCS. My objective is to write code that can run in a loop with commands that I can send to the evaluation board using the same UART0 port. This way I can avoid writing a long test bench with multiple corner cases and instead test and verify each individual function with practical commands from the serial bus. Using now UARTgetc or UARTgets I am able to get data from the serial terminal.
To go to the next level of this I am trying to use the usb_dev_cbcserial and the usb_dev_cserial examples provided in the C:\ti\TivaWare_C_Series-2.2.0.295\examples\boards\ek-tm4c129exl as explained in other posts. But I am not able to see or open another Port connection to the board. In my case when performing some of the previous UARTPrintf example I was using COM3. Now when I flash any of the example codes and open the terminal connection on CCS I dont see a second COM port and I dont see anything printed on the original COM3 port. I try typing h on the terminal (even if I cant see it local echo back to me) and no result.
I would like to better understand how to utilize the features provided in this example.
Best regards,
Stephen G
