2.1.5 Troubleshooting
No Serial Output
If there is no output at all, check the following items:
• Ensure the cable is correctly attached and fully inserted
• Ensure the terminal program is using the correct port
• Ensure the terminal program is configured for the correct speed. The default BIOS speed is 115200, and many
other modern operating systems use that speed as well. Some older operating systems or custom configurations
may use slower speeds such as 9600 or 38400.
• Ensure the operating system is configured for the proper console (e.g. ttyS1 in Linux). Consult the various
operating install guides on this site for further information.
