If the Ethernet TAP probe target serial port settings do not match the serial port settings of your target system, use the following steps.

To configure Ethernet TAP probe serial port

  1. Make sure network communications have already been configured correctly, for more information, see Connecting to network topic or Setting up standalone PC Ethernet topic.
  2. Connect to the Ethernet TAP probe internal setup utility, for more information, see Connecting to Ethernet TAP probe setup utility topic.
  3. When the core> prompt appears on the terminal, use the tgtty command to configure the Ethernet TAP probe Target Serial port. The syntax is:
    tgtty
      [9600|19200|38400|57600|115200]
      [data8|data5|data6|data7]
      [stop1|stop2]
      [noparity|oddparity|evenparity|lowparity|highparity]
      [xon|noxon]
      [echo|noecho]

    For example:

    tgtty 19200 data8 stop2 noparity noxon echo
  4. Verify the Target Serial port configuration at the core> prompt by entering the tgtty command by itself: tgtty

To restore target serial port to default settings

  1. Make sure network communications has already been configured correctly, for more information, see Connecting to network topic or Setting up standalone PC Ethernet topic.
  2. Connect to the Ethernet TAP probe internal setup utility, for more information, see Connecting to Ethernet TAP probe setup utility topic.
  3. When the core> prompt appears on the terminal, use the tgtty command to reset the target serial port to the default settings: tgtty default
