Hi, I'm using a raspberry pi to capture the serial output of a device under test. The pi is managed remotely via SSH. On my pi I have a USB to serial (1 USB, 2 serial - USB0 and USB1).

I tried a simple: sudo stty -F /dev/ttyUSB0 115200 sudo cat /dev/ttyUSB0 > my_log_file.txt but it seems that my USB driver is messing up in the sense that it is sending carriage return all the time. That's not good. So I moved to minicom. After configuring minicom with the correct settings it's working with the following parameter sudo minicom USB0 -C my_log_file.txt My problem is that when I use the following: sudo minicom USB0 -C my_log_file.txt & the log file is not recording anything at all (size does not increment). I configured minicom by default save a log file, but I'm not able to find it or read it (I looked in /etc/minicom). I need to run two instance of minicom at the same time and have them run in the background so I can use my SSH session for other purpose. Thanks for you help!

A while back I was having similar issues, and just broke down and wrote a little C program to open and configure the serial port and then log everything that comes in to disk. It took a little development to write it, but it's been indispensable since, and I wouldn't do it any other way. With just some tiny tweaks you can have it rotate through numbered log files as they hit a certain size, you can add timestamps to the data that's collected, etc. This is a slightly modified (and untested) version of my most recent iteration, it should get you 99.9% of the way there (just might need some tweaks to the file writing, that's the part that's untested). You mean in 'Filenames and paths' > option F?

I tried using: sudo screen minicom USB0 -C USB0.log & A pid is created but the file isn't modified. Am I doing this right? Firstly, I LOVE the example shown by suicidaleggroll.

What I mean for minicom is the following: Enter minicom normally. CTRL-A Z to configure minicom, you get a menu L shows on mine as the option for Capture on/off When I do that I get a pop-up with some default filename that I can change to be like /home/myuser/myfile.txt That's it.

The Raspberry PI can be operated without a network connection, keyboard, mouse and screen. This can be done by connecting the serial port of the Raspberry PI to a RS-232 adapter and then to the serial port of a PC; or a USB to serial converter cable plugged into the PC. In this article, the Raspberry PI serial port is connected to a Linux PC running minicom – terminal emulation software that connects to the serial port. Fifa 16 repack black box. Commands can be sent to the Raspberry PI from minicom as if entering commands from a keyboard plugged into the RPI board.
