Bytes can be sent in this mode by typing the \fBtwo-character hexadecimal\fR

\fI0A\fR.

listed:

Labels can be used to group settings into named sub-configurations which can be
|
|
activated from the command-line when starting tio.

\fBtio\fR will try to match the user input to a sub-configuration by name or by

|
pattern to get the tty and other options.

Options without any label change the default options.

Any options set via command-line will override options set in the configuration file.

Activate the sub-configuration by name:
|

Which is equivalent to:
|

Activate the sub-configuration by pattern match:
|
|
|
|
$ tio usb12
|
|

.TP
|
|
Which is equivalent to:
|
|
|
|
$ tio -b 115200 /dev/ttyUSB12
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
It is also possible to combine use of sub-configuration and command-line options. For example:
|
|
|
|
$ tio -l -t usb12
|
|
|
|
.SH "EXAMPLES"
|
|
.TP
|
|
Typical use is without options:
|
|
|
|
$ tio /dev/ttyUSB0
|
|
.TP
|
|
Which corresponds to the commonly used default options:
|
|
|
|
$ tio \-b 115200 \-d 8 \-f none \-s 1 \-p none /dev/ttyUSB0
|
|

It is recommended to connect serial tty devices by ID:
|
|
|
|
$ tio /dev/serial/by\-id/usb\-FTDI_TTL232R-3V3_FTGQVXBL\-if00\-port0
|

Using serial devices by ID ensures that tio automatically reconnects to the

correct serial device if it is disconnected and then reconnected.

|
|
|
|
$ tio -S unix:/tmp/tmux-socket0 /dev/ttyUSB0

|
|
Then, to issue a command via the file socket simply do:
|
|
|
|
$ echo "ls -la" | nc -UN /tmp/tmux-socket0 > /dev/null
|
|
|
|
.TP
