User Manual

Using Linux, a new listing has appeared called /dev/ttyACM0 . The ttyACM0 part of this listing is the name the

example board is using. Yours will be called something similar.

Connect with screen

Now that you know the name your board is using, you're ready connect to the serial console. We're going to use a

command called screen . The screen command is included with MacOS. Linux users may need to install it using their

package manager. To connect to the serial console, use Terminal. Type the following command, replacing

board_name with the name you found your board is using:

screen /dev/tty.board_name 115200

The first part of this establishes using the screen command. The second part tells screen the name of the board you're

trying to use. The third part tells screen what baud rate to use for the serial connection. The baud rate is the speed in

bits per second that data is sent over the serial connection. In this case, the speed required by the board is 115200 bits

per second.
