2. HOST PC setup.
You will open USB Module Devices on your HOST PC.
Ubuntu
Install Serial comunication utility.
sudo apt-get install minicom
After check your usb serial node, Open serial port.
ls /dev/ttyUSB* sudo minicom -b 115200 -D /dev/ttyUSB0
3. Target board(ODROID-U3) setup.
Set a serial node on your ODROID-U3
stty -F /dev/ttySAC0 115200
4. ODROID-U3 → HOST PC test.
ODROID-U3
echo 1 > /dev/ttySAC0
5. HOST PC → ODROID-U3 test.
ODROID-U3
cat /dev/ttySAC0
HOST PC
Send characters via minicom.
