Strings for serial port definition

[Jantek]

I noticed that for Linux only devices with '/dev/ttyACMx' can be used. I got an cheap Arduino Nano here and it is connected to my PC as '/dev/ttyUSB0'. I added the option to give the device instead of the number. See here:

As far as I can test it the old scheme with the number still works.

I also changed the numbering so any number can be given. 13 would lead to '/dev/ttyACM13' for example.

Can u try symbolic link?

Sorry what do you mean? I am new to scilab.

[Jantek]

Or do you mean symbolic link in linux like:

ln -s /dev/ttyUSB0 /dev/card1

[tanchinluh]

Yes, linux symbolic link, let me know if it works.

Hi,

I tested with:

ln -s /dev/ttyUSB0 /tmp/card1

[Jantek]

Yes, linux symbolic link, let me know if it works.
