5. Configure Communication
The 'Terminal' project is already configured, this step just explains why it's configured like this. In the IOTZ explorer pane (on the top left) expand the menu IoTize Application, select Target System and view the fields underneath:
- Type of Target: System (TapNPass).
- SVD/CSV pathname: don't change.
- Target protocol: Serial Standard (communication where data streams are exchanged without any modification nor decoding).
- Serial Port: RS-232 as we use the RS-232 cable for this test. TapNPass features 3 hardware ports: RS-232, RS-485 and USB. If you select 'AUTO':
- The USB port is selected if a USB device is detected.
- Otherwise, RS-232 is selected.
-
Serial configuration: Handshake: None.
-
The Echo demo doesn't use the other settings.
-
The Toolbox App is both the emitter and the receiver (it simulates the target system).
