Serial Terminal

PicoCalc Serial Terminal

This is a serial terminal program for the PicoCalc.

  • Use the USB-C serial port or GPIO 4 (TX), 5 (RX)
  • Select baud rates between 1200 to 11520.
  • Emulates a VT100 terminal
  • 64 columns and 32 rows
  • Hardware-accelerated scrolling

Not really much more to say! I hope it does the job.

The initial release has a very basic menu, and the VT100 emulation has a few bugs.

Let me know if this helps you out.

As always, feedback is welcome, same for feature requests.

Hi,

Great job, thanks :slight_smile:

I tested USB mode without problems, but GPIO mode is giving me trouble. I connect GP4, GP5 and GND to my module, but I have no communication. If I use the same configuration (GPIO) with PicoMite, it works ( BUT-BasicUartTerminal/BUT1.0.bas at main · BuoyantToaster/BUT-BasicUartTerminal · GitHub ).

Available for tests or to provide more information.

Hmmm, I tested that.

Is this on a Pico 1 or 2?

I’m with a Pico 2 W

Ok, strange. Well, this project is following into line of my typical releases - V0.1 is usually a mess.

I’ll take a look this evening when I get home.

I was able to reproduce what you experienced. GPIO is definitely not working.

I’m working on a fix, but it is going to take some evenings. I have it somewhat working now, but I think some characters are being dropped and I need to look into that.
