Since minicom is a terminal emulator, you can click on the screen and enter your login credentials as if you were connected to the device with a keyboard and monitor. In the end, you should see a login prompt. You will see a lot of output being written to the screen as your device loads. The Welcome screen will appear, but this time it will show your customized OPTIONS and Port. Now take a look at the resulting configuration file: You should now be back at the Welcome screen. Finally, arrow down until Exit is highlighted and press.

Use the down arrow to select Save setup as ttyUSB0.pinephone and hit. Blank out fields A through I and K by pressing each key binding and using the backspace button to clear the field. Use the down arrows to select Modem and dialing and hit to navigate to the Modem and dialing parameter setup screen.

Here is my final serial configuration, your comm parameters might differ. I wonвЂ™t be setting flow control up in this post. You can use stty ixon to enable flow control on the current TTY and stty -ixon to disable it.

If your hardware does not support flow control, then you can enable software flow control instead. If you choose to enable flow control, then it must be configured on both sides of the connection for it to work. However, if I needed to set it, the fastest way would be to type E Q. Since the line speed of my PinePhone is 1152008n1 I can keep the default value. The most common baud rates (speeds) have quick keys C вЂ“> 9600, D вЂ“> 38400, E вЂ“> 115200. The fifth column provides key bindings to set the two most common Parity, Data and Stopbit combinations. The first three columns represent each of the comm parameters encoded in the line speed. Setting the line speed should be self explanatory. Type E to enter the line speed required by your device. Type A to edit the Serial Device and change the port to the correct value, which is /dev/ttyUSB0/ in my case.If you do not know what 8N1 means, then please read my brief write up on serial communication before proceeding. Use the down arrow to select Serial Port Setup and hit. Type C-A o to navigate to the configuration menu. Since the named configuration does not yet exist, minicom will simply load its default settings. Start minicom by passing it an appropriate custom configuration name.

which would be saved to my home directory as $HOME/.minirc. My preference is to name custom minicom configuration files using the convention. Configure minicom for use over UART serial term With all that in mind, letвЂ™s configure minicom for our non-root user account. config/minicom/, which would be a nice change since I donвЂ™t like polluting my top level dot files with a bunch of related configurations. Note: The minicom repository has a TODO item to move.

Minicom will resolve the full path name to the configuration file on its own.

When loading a saved configuration into minicom, pass only the part of the configuration file.

i.e $HOME/.myminirc would become /home/dustfinger/.minirc._home_dustfinger_.myminirc.

If you provide a path to the configuration, all instances of the path separator will be replaced by an underscore and the resulting string will be used as the.

Custom configuration names will be saved as.

If, on the other hand, you navigate to the configuration menu after having started minicom without the -s flag, then minicom will save the configuration files to your home directory.

If you pass the optional flag -s which starts minicom directly in the configuration menu, then MinicomвЂ™s behaviour is to save the configuration to the compiled in directory only, regardless of whether or not you are running as root.

Minicom has some quirks when it comes to saving and loading configuration files. The configuration directory for the access file and the configurations We can look up the required group membership using the ls command. This is achieved by adding the correct group membership to our user account. Our user account requires rw permissions to initiate a connection with the device. The rest of this blog post will simply use ttyUSB0 as the name of the serial port, but you must use the correctly named serial port assigned to your connected device if you are following along. The device name for a serial connection is properly referred to as a serial port. Also, the index number at the end of the name is determined by the devices minor number and may not be 0. There are more serial port names than I mention here. If your system architecture is ARM, you might see a name like this ttyAMA0 and if it is a Samsung, then the device might be named ttySAC0. In my case the TTY device name was ttyUSB0 however, if your cable is not a USB converter, then it might be named ttyS0 instead. usb 1-2: FTDI USB Serial Device converter now attached to ttyUSB0 ftdi_sio 1-2:1.0: FTDI USB Serial Device converter detected
