sabrineHello,
I am getting starting with mdot developement, following this tutorial:
https://developer.mbed.org/teams/MultiTech/code/mDot_AT_firmware/?platform=MTS-mDot-F411
the problem is that On TeraTerm I can’t see the new serial port, is their a driver that I have to install? I am using windows
Note: I installed “stlink” and I can see the virtual serial port but not the real serial port
Mike FioreHi Sabrine,
Two things:
1) The AT firmware uses the external serial port on the UDK2 for AT commands, not the virtual port coming over USB. You’ll need either a serial port on your PC or a USB-to-Serial adapter to connect your PC to the external port.
2) To use the virtual port over USB with a windows PC, you need to install an additional driver first. See this mbed page for more information.

sabrineThanks for your reply 🙂
I am actually using an USB to serial cable but still the port is not detected 🙁
Mike FioreDoes you USB-to-Serial cable require any additional drivers to be installed?
You could take a look at your device manager in Windows and see if there are any unidentified USB devices or COM ports, etc.
sabrineExactly it was not identified in the USB devices manager and I had to update its driver. Thanks!
Mike FioreGlad that worked out! Let us know if you have any other questions!
Cheers,
Mike
