maettu_this Arduino Serial Monitor (Windows, Mac, Linux)The Arduino Integrated Development Environment (IDE) is the software side of the Arduino platform. And, because using a terminal is such a big part of working with Arduinos and other microcontrollers, they decided to included a serial terminal with the software. Within the Arduino environment, this is called the Serial Monitor.
Making a ConnectionSerial monitor comes with any and all version of the Arduino IDE. To open it, simply click the Serial Monitor icon.
The icon is located to the right of the other icons in Arduino 0023 and below.
The icon is located to the far right in Arduino 1.0 and beyond.
Selecting which port to open in the Serial Monitor is the same as selecting a port for uploading Arduino code. Go to Tools -> Serial Port, and select the correct port.
Once open, you should see something like this:
SettingsThe Serial Monitor has limited settings, but enough to handle most of your serial communication needs. The first setting you can alter is the baud rate. Click on the baud rate drop-down menu to select the the correct baud rate.
You can also change the enter key emulation to carriage return, line feed, both, or neither.
Last, you can the the terminal to autoscroll or not by checking the box in the bottom left corner.
