Serial port issue
Posted: Tue Jul 14, 2015 12:33 am
I just purchased a Mintbox 2 and am having an issue with the native serial port. The problem exists in Kermit as well as in Python code I've written.
The receive buffer seems to empty a hundred milliseconds or so after receiving data. If you read quickly enough, the data is there. Otherwise, no luck.
There are other issues...On occasion an exception is thrown on port open, write. I needed to close/open the port prior to writes.
FYI, I've used a USB-Serial converter, and it is working perfectly.
Suggestions?
