Is it possible to start an STLink serial terminal from within the IDE?

I can manually start Tera Term and connect Serially, but I cannot find how to do this from within the IDE. Is this possible? Maybe a project option that needs enabled?

Using STM32CubeIDE 1.6

Thanks

I just found it. If you click enough buttons (I could not find where the info is in help).

Here is how to invoke:

  • Start a Debug session.
  • Click on the Open Console button.
  • Select 'Command Shell Console'.
  • Set Connection Type: 'Serial Port'
    • Click new and give some name, e.g., STLINK_Serial (this name will be available on subsequent access)
    • Set Encoding to UTF-8
  • Click OK to display output

Cheers,

Derek
