DM355 Connecting to a Console Window

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: OMAP3530

 

I connect a serial cable between EVM and PC over RS232 and then run a terminal session (from HyperTerminal) and configure it to connect to that serial port with the following characteristics:

■ Bits per Second: 115200

■ Data Bits: 8

■ Parity: None

■ Stop Bits: 1

■ Flow Control: None

When I power the EVM, I can see boot sequence messages, but when I enter a command or only a character from a keyboard, it seems odd characters on hyperterminal. Actually, I enter true commands or characters. Because, for example; entering command setenv nfshost 192.168.1.10, forms nfshost=192.168.1.10 in environment variables by using printenv command.

Also, I have worked on Omap3530 with same cable and computer, it hasnt any problem anything like that. Whatever i enter a character or command, I can see that.

How can i correct this issue? I can write true things but i couldn't see on terminal.

Thanks for advance...

    Hi Seydi,

    firstly if you are using minicom, you set appropriate  screen and keyboard setting have a look at the image below.

     

     

    Or if you have cutecom installed you can try it out there.

    Hi Prabhakar;

    Thank you for response, but i don't use minicom because my computer doesnt have direct rs232 port so I use rs232 to usb converter and not works without appropriate driver for that. While searching another terminal, i found termite 2.6, I overcame this problem. Again, thanks for your response. The problem is solved.

    Regards...
