Sync Box Firmware
Fill this in..
Issue commands to the Sync Box
To issue commands to a sync box over an RS-232 line, you can use a Linux program called 'MiniCom'. To install this application, type the following:
> apt-get install...
To start MiniCom:
> sudo minicom
Minicom needs the following options changed for it to work properly:
> <ctrl-a>, <z>, <a> > <ctrl-a>, <z>, <o>, <Serial port setup> <Serial Device> = /dev/ttyS0 > <ctrl-a>, <z>, <o>, <Serial port setup> <Bps/Par/Bits> = 9600 8N1 > <ctrl-a>, <z>, <o>, <Serial port setup> <Hardware Flow Control> = No > <ctrl-a>, <z>, <o>, <Serial port setup> <Software Flow Control> = No > <ctrl-a>, <z>, <o>, <Modem and dialing> <Modem has DCD line> = No
After you modify these settings, remember to save, exit, and restart Minicom.
