Is it possible to send a break statement? about ninjaterm HOT 6 OPEN

Hi @tunguskar , no NinjaTerm can't do that at the moment, But I think it should!

Having a quick look, luckily I think this is possible via this API: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/SerialPort/getSignals

How do you think the user should be able to trigger a break? Is there a standard keyboard shortcut that does this? Or a UI button?

Hi gbmhunter,

When you prepare a string to send in docklight it is done like this:

Docklight Scripting supports sending a "break" within a Send Sequence and detecting a "break" state using a Receive Sequence definition. "break" signals are added to your sequence definition by inserting a Function Character '%' (F10 key). A Docklight "break" signal has a minimum length of 15 * <nominal bit length>.

When you press F10 you get this:

Hterm does not offer this option.

TerraTerm has this:

But i dont like this.

Thanks @tunguskar , I'll look to add this in the next week or so.

Hi @tunguskar , I've added in the ability to send a break for 200ms by pressing Ctrl-Shift-B when the port is open and the terminal in focus (you should get a message saying "break sent".

It's currently in a deploy preview at https://deploy-preview-315--ninjaterm.netlify.app/

Are you able to test this for me please?

@tunguskar no worries! I actually also released that to production on the weekend, so https://ninjaterm.mbedded.ninja/ should have the change also :-)
