Serial Terminal Dissconnect on Pyboard reset.

[LoRaTracker]

Is there a serial terminal that will not dissconnect the virtual USB serial port used by a Pyboard, when the board is reset ?

TeraTerm and Putty drop the connection to repl when you reset the Pyboard and need to be restarted.

I know you can redirect the repl to an external CP2102 type USB serial adapter with this in main.py;

Code: Select all

import pyb
uart = pyb.UART(2, 115200)
pyb.repl_uart(uart)

But is there a serial terminal application that avoides the need for this ?

Using Windows 7 and Windows 8.

Try rshell (https://github.com/dhylands/rshell). I've never tested it under Windows though.

When pyboard reset, USB port will disconnect from the computer, so virtual serial will be disconnect too.

Rshell does not seem to work with Windows.

And yes the virtual serial will disconnect.

With Teraterm, you do not have to close the application, you can just select the serial port again (after a Pyboard reset) so it must be possible for an application to have a re-connect function, just wondering if anyone has done an applicaion to do it.

Just found this, you can set up a custom user key to run a re-connect in Teraterm, described here;

You can reset the Pyboard and press CTRL-F1 to reconnect to the repl.
