Firstly, the G8501 graphical interface system has added 4 firmware images:
OpenKylin Operating System: t527_linux_hw527-core_openKylin_uart0.img
Buildroot System with Weston Desktop: t527_linux_hw527-core_buildroot-weston_uart0.img
Ubuntu XFCE4 Desktop: t527_linux_hw527-core_ubuntu-xfce4_uart0.img
Debian XFCE4 Desktop: t527_linux_hw527-core_debian-xfce4_uart0.img
Among them, the Buildroot system with Weston Desktop has added 2 small tools: Serial Debugging Assistant and Network Debugging Assistant.
For a long time, ARM industrial control devices have been operated via command line for serial and RS-485 ports. New customers often ask if there is a Serial Debugging Assistant similar to that on computers, especially when sensors require binary communication. The same applies to network communication. Therefore, we have integrated these 2 tools to make it more convenient for customers.
Open the Serial Debugging Assistant, send from ttyS1, and receive on ttyS3. It is also set to HEX for transmission and reception.
The Serial Debugging Assistant also supports data transmission and reception between serial and network:
Open the Network Debugging Assistant, start the TCP server, and the Serial Debugging Assistant opens the TCP client. Data is sent from ttyS3 to ttyS1, and after ttyS1 receives the data, it is sent to the server via TCP. Of course, the network supports both TCP and UDP server and client.
The Network Debugging Assistant supports binary communication, timed sending, and other common commands. It supports TCP client, TCP server, UDP client, and UDP server.
The Buildroot system with Weston Desktop also includes a shell terminal, making it convenient for customers to execute commands to operate the device:
The Serial Debugging Assistant and Network Debugging Assistant support devices such as G5301, G5501, G8501, G8701, etc…
