trying to use meshtastic --port /dev/ttyUSB0 --seriallog stdout as dumb terminal

[bradshawlupton]

We are trying to pass text messages from one ubuntu node to another in a 4 node ham meshtastic mesh on 433 mhz

meshtastic --port /dev/ttyUSB0 --seriallog stdout Shutdown BT: 217020 heap size Connected to radio

We are attempting to just dump the messages sent from one node (any other traffic is fine too) to a remote node heltec-v2.0

wish to use usb on ubuntu, no androids for now.

BT is a future, wifi is a desired near future

significan yagi antennas over buzzards bay and the cape cod canal for tidal sensors for STEM is the target.

           Thanks, Bradshaw

I don't think that's what seriallog is intended to do. I think --seriallog is intended to just capture the serial output a file.

I think for what you are trying to do there are two options:

1. use MQTT (might be overkill)
2. setup a python program to subscribe to events (I've not done this yet, so it might take a bit of experiementation)
