Serial

Connect to a Serial Server.

Make sure that the device mapping for the manager Docker container in the file docker-compose.yml looks like the following:

...
...
  manager:
    restart: always
    ...
    ...
    devices:
      - /dev/ttyACM0:/dev/ttyS0
...
...      

In this example the serial port /dev/ttyACM0 of the host is mapped to the serial port /dev/ttyS0 of the manager Docker container.

Agent configuration

The following describes the supported agent configuration attributes:

Attribute	Description	Value type	Required
serialPort	Serial port device address (e.g. COM1 or /dev/ttyACM0)	Text	Y
serialBaudrate	Serial port baudrate	Integer (Default = 38400)	N

As this is a generic IO Agent the optional attributes described in the Generic Agent Overview can also be used.

Agent link

For attributes linked to this agent, the Default Agent Link should be used with a type value of Default.
