15.1 Advanced Portmanager

pmshell

The pmshell command acts similarly to the standard tip or cu commands, but all serial port
access is directed via the portmanager.

Example:

To connect to port 8 via the portmanager:

# pmshell -l port08

pmshell Commands:

Once connected, the pmshell command supports a subset of the '~' escape commands that
tip/cu support. For SSH, you must prefix the escape with an additional ‘~’ command (i.e. use the
‘~~’ escape)

Send Break:

Typing the character sequence '~b' will generate a BREAK on the serial port.

History:

Typing the character sequence '~h' will generate a history on the serial port.

Quit pmshell:

Typing the character sequence '~.' will exit from pmshell.

Set RTS to 1 run the command:

# pmshell --rts=1

Show all signa

# pmshell –signals

DSR=1 DTR=1 CTS=1 RTS=1 DCD=0

Read a line of text from the serial port:

# pmshell –getline
