# tos-serial-configure(1)

reset serial port settings for raw data

## NAME

tos-serial-configure - reset serial port settings for raw data

## SYNOPSIS

**tos-serial-configure** *number*

## DESCRIPTION

**tos-serial-configure** is a tool that resets a serial port to read raw bytes. Some devices, such as terminals, require serial ports to interpret bytes in some fashion or another. For example, in "cooked" mode, a read on a serial port returns only after a newline character.

**tos-serial-debug** takes a required *number* argument, an integer which refers to which serial port to configure. This is appended to "/dev/ttyS" to determine the terminal device name.

## EXAMPLE

Executing

  tos-serial-configure 0

configures /dev/ttyS0.
