Communicating with serial port
These days I am working on embedded ARM linux devices. I am writing an application for it. I was using Hyper terminal( windows machine ) to transfer image file,even though I am using linux for development( coding ).This suggestion was given from the vendor and since it is my first project in embedded , I am doing whatever they are suggesting. Just for file transfer I have to use windows machine which was giving me bad feeling .So this morning I decided to setup serial port with linux and will try to transfer file by linux.I have tried a lot of tools like minicom,cutecome,gtkterm and c-kermit . After trying around 2 hours I am able to transfer file from linux to POS machine using serial port with the help of kermit. So , I decide to write the procedure of it for future reference.
