My application use both UART 1 & 2 in data mode and a specific interface is linked to each UART.
So, i would like to use USB link to debug with Visual C++ / Terminal Emulator / Target Monitoring Tools my application.
So, i have openned USB link (AT+WMFM=0,1,3), and settings the “RemoteTask monitor” (when starting debug mode) for using USB link .
But, nothing happened under TMT and TE ! So, how configuring Target Monitoring Tools and Terminal Emulator for seiing TRACE coming from USB link ?
There is an issue with how your PC communicates to the Wavecom module via the USB port.
First close the USB interface: at+wmfm=0,0,1
then reopen it: at+wmfm=0,1,3
Then go to your computers device driver window. Under Modems, you will find “Wavecom USB Wireless CPU”.
Select it, and then look at it’s properties. Under the Modem tab, you will find what vertual COM port the wavecom module is using. You can then open a hyperterminal to that COM port and issue most AT commands.
I would suggest that if your going to be doing this, that you first create a menu of options with your own AT commands, also I would suggest that you issue the USB activate command within your Open AT application so you will not have to continue to open/close the port:
ie: adl_atCmdCreate(“AT+WMFM=0,1,3”,FALSE,NULL,NULL);
Another note: every time you re-start your wavecom module the vertual COM port will also be reset and your PC will loose the USB connection. So to continue debug operations via the USB port, you must close your terminal connection before restart the Wavecom module.
You must “create” your owm traces, for example using adl_atSendResponse on USB. You would recieve the information as text on a hyperterminal or similar.
The TRACE macro (and DUMP, ETC) are not tied to a particular interface - they are enabled at runtime by whichever interface (UART1, UART2, USB, whatever) is connected to the TMT (or M2MStudio).
Hi awneil,
How do you for the TRACES over the USB? Do you generate the code as Target-Debug or as Remote-Debug? I hope that Remote-Debug doesn’t work over USB but I’ve never tried it.
ok , in my application i want to use UART1 and UART2 to communicate with 2 devices , and use USB for debug ( send TRACE )it this possible , if Yes how i can do this ( Send TRACE with USB interface ).
First, try to read TRACES over UART1 on Remote-Debug mode. Does it works? If not, the problem should be in TRACES reading on tools. If it works, I hope awneil will explain us how to read the traces on USB.
Yes , I get TRACE from UART1 and UART2 but not USB.
Procedure to get TRACE from USB :
1- I open the Virtual port for USB ( COM11 for me) .
2- when i run debug , in setting , i select in Hard communication Type: USB and COM11 for COM Number for USB and i click START .
I think that the PC lose the commnication with the USB interface when i start the debug !!! .
