I'm a bit of a noob to linux and this is my first time working with a Raspberry Pi - which I know has limited testing/support with CoolTerm.

I'm trying to connect to a board connected to ttyAMA2 - Coolterm connects, but when I enter any command, or even gibberish, I get no response back whatsoever, - ever. ??

Not sure what I'm doing wrong. I've verified that I'm connecting with the correct serial port options (baudrate, port, etc). Local Echo is on and I see my commands in the display, but nothing happens after I hit enter to submit my commands like it usually has for me on other systems.

Can you try a loopback test to see if the ttyAMA2 port is working correctly? Simply connect the TX pin to the RX pin and then type something in to CoolTerm, if everything works correctly, the loopback connection should echo back everything you type (with local echo turned on you should see every typed character twice).

Thanks, I was able to accomplish what I needed with a different tool, thanks!
