How to connect to ubuntu over serial radio
for ubuntu 16.04
Since the 3dr radios are just a serial connection I figured I could connect to a terminal via them. Here is how I did it.
- You need to tell ubuntu to set up a serial login at start. I used these instructions. http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/serial-console.html
Set the systemctrl to the ttyUSB0 or what ever port is needed.
$ systemctl enable [email protected]Open the created file in /lib/systemd/system, it should be [email protected]
change the baud rate to whatever the radio uses such as 57600
Now start the service
$ systemctl start [email protected]If you make any other changes make sure to reload the daemon
$ systemctl daemon-reload
Ok so it looks like this does not work for ubuntu 14.04 as it does not use systemd it is using upstart
