Change Release Notes

I was trying to debug a serial LCD, and then another serial device when I realized there aren't many good Serial Terminals available. So I made one, and here it is in this latest release of ARC.

To send serial commands, use the EZ-Script command "SendSerial()"

Otherwise, the terminal is for communication to TTL devices for configuration

Quote:

SendSerial( digitalPort, baudRate, data, ... )

  • Send a series of data over the specified port and baud rate
  • Data can be Hex (0x09), character ('c'), string ("string"), or decimal (188)
  • Example: SendSerial(0x09, 'n', 0x00, 244, "This is text")

Good Morning DJ !

 I APPLAUD Your Addition of Serial Terminal to ARC !

 Early this morning I connected to my iRobot Create via Com1 and the Creates Serial Cable, and the minute I set the Baud Rate to 57600, I got the Powerup Dialog Screen from the Create !

 I was not so fortunate on the Send Side, trying 128 131 followed by 137 0 100 128 0 with No Success ?

 Repeating the same steps in both RealTerm, RoombaComm Test, and Create.1.0.1.2.exe gives me IMMEDIATE Slow Forward Motion of the Create.

 What am I doing Wrong; I tried different Delimiters Like Comma, etc, NO Luck ?

Thank You Again & I Like Serial Terminal On The ARC Screen as part of your Roomba Routine.

I need to learn how to use it ?
