Description
:
Starts a terminal interface between the current shell and another port.
There are 3 supported ports:
mesh
refers to the built-in radio modem (AT interface).
rs232
and
rs485
refer to the serial ports accessible via port 6.
Once the terminal interface is open, use the tilde character:
~
to access further
features, as follows:
If talking to RS485 port, tilde (~) toggles between 4800 baud and 1200 baud (handy for
talking to soil probes)
If talking to Mesh Radio port, tilde (~) opens the AT command session.
If talking to RS232 port, tilde (~) turn on RTS, while caret (^) turns it off.
The serial communications parameters are always: 8 data bits, 1 stop bit and no parity
bit.
