Connecting to Hitachi boards
............................
Use the special `gdb' command `device PORT' if you need to
explicitly set the serial device. The default PORT is the first
available port on your host. This is only necessary on Unix hosts,
where it is typically something like `/dev/ttya'.
`gdb' has another special command to set the communications speed:
`speed BPS'. This command also is only used from Unix hosts; on DOS
hosts, set the line speed as usual from outside GDB with the DOS `mode'
command (for instance, `mode com2:9600,n,8,1,p' for a 9600 bps
connection).
The `device' and `speed' commands are available only when you use a
Unix host to debug your Hitachi microprocessor programs. If you use a
DOS host, GDB depends on an auxiliary terminate-and-stay-resident
program called `asynctsr' to communicate with the development board
through a PC serial port. You must also use the DOS `mode' command to
set up the serial port on the DOS side.
