NAME

       ttysend - Serial Line Rate Tester (Send)

SYNOPSIS

       ttysend [options] [<stdin]

DESCRIPTION

       Send  data  to  a  serial device.  The primary purpose of this program is to send data over a serial port
       that can then be received with the ttyrecv utility.

       The ttysend program exits when either one of the following conditions are met:
           1.  The file specified on the command line (see -f) is sent in its entirety.
           2.  The send time specified on the command line (see -t) has elapsed.

       This program is part of the Qualcomm Atheros Powerline Toolkit.  See the AMP man page for an overview and
       installation instructions.

COMMENTS

       This program does not yet support Windows platforms.

OPTIONS

       -f file
              The file to send.  If this option is not specified, the values 0x00 to 0xFF are sent  in  a  loop.
              Instead  of a filename, a '-' may be specified.  This is similar to the tar utility, and instructs
              ttysend to read from standard input.

       -l file
              The serial port file to send data to.  The default is /dev/ttyS0.

       -s speed
              The serial baud rate.  Supported baud rates are 0, 50, 75, 110, 134, 150,  200,  300,  600,  1200,
              1800, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, 115200, 230400, 460800, 500000 and 921600.

       -t time
              Transmit for a maximum of time seconds.  The default is 15 seconds.

       -?,--help
              Print  program  help  summary  on  stdout.  This option takes precedence over other options on the
              command line.

       -?,--version
              Print program version information on stdout.  This option takes precedence over other  options  on
              the  command line.  Use this option when sending screen dumps to Atheros Technical Support so that
              they know exactly which version of the Linux Toolkit you are using.

EXAMPLES

       None.
