Using CoolTerm with Arduino for Serial Data Capture

"Learn how to efficiently capture data from an Arduino device using CoolTerm. Follow the step-by-step instructions to set up the serial port, choose baud rates, start data capture to a text file, establish a connection, and manage data acquisition. Ensure only one program uses the serial port at a time for seamless operation between CoolTerm and Arduino IDE."

Presentation Transcript

1. Cool Term Use with Arduino Only one program can use the serial port at any time. Stopping the Serial Monitor in Arduino is usually enough to allow CoolTerm to use the port. Also, disconnect from CoolTerm to use the Arduino IDE again. 1. Start Cool Term 2. Options:Serial Port:Port and choose the Arduino hardware port and the baud rate. The baud rate is set in the Arduino sketch. 3. Connection:Capture to Textfile:Start and choose where to put the file that will contain data from the Arduino. Let it run to get the data. Data will flow after the next step. 4. Click on Connect. 5. After you have the data, stop data acquisition so the new file can be created. Otherwise it will continue to capture data. Connection:Capture to Textfile:Stop See the following slides for step-by-step instructions. Note that Cool Term versions may be different, but the ideas remain the same. By Pat Arnott
