SITL Ser2TCP issue
I'm trying to use serial2tcb bridge to connect my ELRS receiver by usr2ttl adapter to SITL Ubuntu 23.04 I have an error
[Serial2TCP] Unable to open /dev/ttyUSB0: System.ArgumentException: Value does not fall within the expected range.
at System.IO.Ports.SerialStream..ctor(String, Int32, Parity, Int32, StopBits, Int32, Int32, Handshake, Boolean, Boolean, Boolean, Byte) + 0x370
at System.IO.Ports.SerialPort.Open() + 0xee
at Ser2TCP.Program.Ser2TCP(String, Int32, Int32, StopBits, Parity, IPAddress, Int32, Int32) + 0x11a
If I'm trying to run this command manually - error the same
./Ser2TCP --comport /dev/ttyUSB0 --baudrate 420000 --tcpport 5762 --ip 0.0.0.0
I tried to use another program (python serial2tcp) and it works correct
We should really replace these binary programs (in particular the Linux monstrosity) with code we own / control. May I be as presumptive to propose choosing one of the language variants from these Cross platform ser2tcp ser2tcp implementations, preferably the C language option.
Note the C-lang instances are what is shipped with the so called "Next "configurators. You may find working "drop in" replaceable binaries in the archives here

Thank you for the answer I downloaded the new ser2tcp from your link
$ ./ser2tcp -c /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 420000 -i 127.0.0.1 -t 5762
Failed to connect to 127.0.0.1 5762
tried to reboot, to use sudo... the same PS: python serial2tcp still works =)
The same issue with golang AND c version compiled on my PC
But I still can open this port with nc -l 5762
version of SITL? Interface of which SITL listens, e.g:
$ lsof -p $(pidof inav_SITL)
COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME

which then works:

as does:
$ ser2tcp -c /dev/ttyUSB0 -i 127.0.0.1 -t 5762

Your SITL is not listening on TCP:5762
- it is not shown in the Configurator window
- nor is it shown in the
lsoflisting.
This one is:
$ fl2sitl --minimal -listen 49001
You have configured
UART3for SerialRX forSITL?
Yes, you can see it on my screen I'll try another version of configurator
The SITL reads the used ports from the saved eeprom; if you haven't set up the port as a serialTX, the SITL cannot see it and it doesn't matter what you do on the SITL tab.
And you must also have set up the rx type in the Receiver tab.
Seems like there is no software issue here, rather incomplete configuration.
Yohoo!!! Finally, it is connected (I chose UART3 as a SerialRX on Ports tab, and THEN re-run SITL).

Don't see any stick actions, but I'll double check all the configurations and tell you later
Ready to continue )
As I previously said - I don't see any data from receiver - ExpressLRS EP2 (CRSF protocol)
Steps:
The receiver is conneceted by TTL convertor
screen /dev/ttyUSB0 420000 - works (can see some packets in output)
nc -l 5372 + ./Ser2TCP -c /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 420000 -i 127.0.0.1 -p 5762 - works (can see some packets in "nc" output)
Trying with InavConfigurator 6.1
./fl2sitl --minimal

Receiver TAB - Serial + CRSF Moving stick on TX not showing on the tab
PS: still can connect on /dev/ttyUSB0 and see data (I thought that ttyUSB0 should be locked after the bridge connection)
nc 127.0.0.1 5762 successful but doesn't show any data
while writing, the data was changed few times
but the data still incorrect
is it possible that buadrate is incorrect?
Works perfectly here (CRSF). It is probable that your USB-TTL adaptor cannot handle "non-standard" baud rates. For example:
- Ancient "Prolific"
pl2303device. When set to420000baud it actually uses421052which is within 0.25% and works find with CRSF. - Newer
cp210xdevice, only supports "POSIX like" baud rates. When set to420000baud it actually uses460800which differs by 9.7% and I doubt would work with CRSF.
So again, SITL and ser2tcp work perfectly if you've (a) configured everything correctly and (b) you use adequate hardware.
Maybe I'll add a warning to ser2tcp where the desired and actual baud rates differ ...
I'm using CH340 TTL adapter
Exactly like in image
But you are right. This is possible that it doesn't support 420000
The only way is to test it, I'm going to update the 'C' ser2tcp to provide a warning. I'll let you know when it's done.
Thanks!

You can ungzip / rename and try the following. It will report any difference in desired baudrate and device actual rate. This seems only to be a Linux issue; on FreeBSD, MacOS and Windows the driver reports the speed as requested.
$ ser2tcp -c /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 420000
Warning: device speed 421052 differs from requested 420000
Connected to [::1]:5762 <-> /dev/ttyUSB0
This small difference is OK, the converter works just fine with configurator / SITL. The other device that sets itself to 460800 does not work with the SITL / Configurator. ser2tcp-static.gz
I'll try your version as well a bit later
How I fixed my problem with ExpressLRS - I reflashed receiver and set baudrate to 400000
The same speed for ser2tcp
It works now )
