Tera Term Serial Macro Examples



An RS-232 serial console servers to be controlled from a terminal or a PC with a terminal emulation program attached to the asynchronous COM1 (or other) serial port. If your Windows PC doesn’t offer a terminal emulation program (e.g. Your PC is running Windows 7), please use Tera Term. Tera Term (alternatively TeraTerm) is an open-source, free, software implemented, terminal emulator (communications) program. It emulates different types of computer terminals, from DEC VT100 to DEC VT382. It supports telnet, SSH 1 & 2 and serial port connections. It also has a built-in macro scripting language (supporting Oniguruma regular expressions) and a few other useful plugins. Quick demo on running a TeraTerm Script.

I am testing some boards and the system used to test these is Tera Term. In Tera Term I use the Serial Port to send commands to the board in order to log in and run certain settings that I want.

How do I make Tera Term toggle DTR and RTS, or execute any of its custom commands in the Tera Term language (TTL)? I have an electronics project that uses an FTDI chip as the serial interface betw.

Support for Tera Term terminal emulator as well as some example.

Instead of typing these commands each time I test a board I want to create a program that sends these commands without the requirement to type them again and again each time.

Also I need to set a delay between each command as the system needs to to load between them.

Question
How can automate the typing of commands and delay between subsequent commands in teraterm?

I used the Tera Term Language (TTL) and created a macro which solved my problem. I used code to wait for a prompt from the system and then print out the command I wanted.

Here's a link to the TTL syntax:

Don't use Tera Term for that. It is not made for scripting, but rather for interactive use. Try to get a command line serial terminal emulator.

If you are on Windows you can just write echo command > COM1 in a normal com.exe-window, according to this link: https://batchloaf.wordpress.com/2013/02/12/simple-trick-for-sending-characters-to-a-serial-port-in-windows/(Replace COM1 with the name of your serial interface)

Make sure you don't have your Tera Term open while you use the echo-command, otherwise you'll get 'Access Denied'.

I am using a Tera Term over a serial port to do some testing on a board. Recently I found out I can do some scripting in Tera Term so I have been doing research to help automate and make testing a little easier.

I know Tera Term has a site that lists example macros as well as a command list but I guess what I need is someone with experience scripting in Tera Term.

Tera Term uses a sort of Basic language called Tera Term Language (TTL) but I found it hard from the site to actually identify which commands I needed to use.

Tera term site: http://ttssh2.sourceforge.jp/ < -- Note: Site is in Japanese but I always have it auto translated.

I am trying to develop a script to play a set of tracks using a 'play x' command, where x is the track index. Ideally the track will play for ~3 seconds and then increment up to the next track. I have a very crude outline algorithm that I should describe it.

Algorithm:

If anyone has any insights or experience with Tera term I would be very appreciative.

If anything right now I need to figure out how to take an inputbox input and store it to a variable. I can probably figure out the rest.

Thanks

OK, I did some digging and found a moderately active forum: http://logmett.com/forum/

It is there that I found a nice thread called: TeraTerm Macro Language for dummies.http://logmett.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=2133

That, and the command list on the actual TeraTerm project site is where I have been troubleshooting and solving 90% of my issues.

To take in a user defined input you use the 'inputbox' command, which follows the format:

inputbox 'message' 'title' [default]

(not entirely sure what default is supposed to be doing)

Tera Term Serial Macro Example

E.G.

inputbox 'Please type input' 'Input'

a dialog box will appear and prompt a response. This input is sent to a default variable inputstr

Tera term serial macro example

I have gotten this variable to work in some cases but I think the problem is that the variable is technically a string type so I can't do traditional loops. I need to figure out a way to use the str2int command to do an expression.

I think that answers my own immediate question as well as provide some reference for others.

Tera Term (alternatively TeraTerm) is an open-source, free, software implemented, terminal emulator (communications) program. It emulates different types of computer terminals, from DEC VT100 to DEC VT382. It supports telnet, SSH 1 & 2 and serial port connections. It also has a built-in macroscripting language (supporting Onigurumaregular expressions) and a few other useful plugins.

History[edit]

The first versions of Tera Term were created by T. Teranishi from Japan. At the time, it was the only freely available terminal emulator to effectively support the Japanese language. Original development of Tera Term stopped in the late 1990s at version 2.3, but other organizations have created variations.

In October 2002, Ayera Technologies released TeraTerm Pro 3.1.3 supporting SSH2 and added multiple other features like a built-in web server for API integration with external systems, recurring 'keep-alive' commands, and ODBC database support via the TT Macro Scripting Language. Ayera Technologies did not make their source open, but does provide limited technical support.

In 2004, Yutaka Hirata, a software designer from Japan, restarted development of the open source version of Tera Term. He added his own implementation of SSH2 and many new features on top of what was part of version 2.3.[1]

To avoid confusion with version numbers and to indicate that Tera Term developed by Yutaka was more recent than version 3.1.3 from Ayera Technologies, it was decided to give this branch of Tera Term Professional version numbers starting 4.xx.

In January 2005, Boris Maisuradze, together with Yutaka Hirata, started the TeraTerm Support forum where they answered questions from Tera Term users. Posting in this forum was the best way to suggest new features for Tera Term or propose new commands for the Tera Term Macro language. For more than 10 years the forum was hosted on LogMeTT.com website maintained by Boris Maisuradze. Boris also developed several freeware tools that became part of TeraTerm package. Later Boris decided to retire from this project. LogMeTT.com website was shut down and support forums moved to TeraTerm Project site.

Since 2007, Tera Term has been maintained by Tera Term Project (Japanese Developer team) as open source software.
