HARDWARIO Real Time Transfer Terminal Console

Overview

HARDWARIO Real Time Transfer Terminal Console (rttt) is a Python package that provides an interface for real-time data transfer using SEGGER J-Link RTT (Real-Time Transfer) technology. It enables efficient data communication between an embedded system and a host computer via RTT channels.

This package is particularly useful for debugging, logging, and real-time data visualization in embedded applications.

Features

• Real-time communication with embedded devices via RTT.
• Support for multiple RTT buffers (console and logger).
• Adjustable latency for optimized readout.
• J-Link support with configurable serial numbers, device types, and speeds.
• Command-line interface (CLI) for quick access to features.
• Easy installation via PyPI.

Installation

To install the package, use:

pip install hardwario

To verify the installation, run:

rttt --help

Usage

Basic Command

To start the RTT console:

rttt --device <DEVICE_NAME>
