RepRap 3rd Generation Driver

This driver is intended to work with the RepRap 3rd Generation Electronics and Firmware.

Driver Configuration

<portname> Element (optional)

This element specifies the serial port to use. In windows, provide COMXX where XX is the port number. In Mac / Linux, provide the path to the port (ie: /dev/tty.USB0)

If this element is omitted, it will default to the first serial port found.

<rate> Element (optional)

This element specifies the serial communication speed in baud. If it is omitted, it will default to 19200 baud.

<partity> Element (optional)

This element specifies the parity of the serial port. If it is omitted, it will default to 8.

<databits> Element (optional)

This element specifies the databits of the serial port. If it is omitted, it will default to 1.

<stopbits> Element (optional)

This element specifies the stopbits of the serial port. If it is omitted, it will default to N.

Example Configurations

Extremely simple:

<driver name="serialpassthrough"></driver>

Port name only:

<driver name="serialpassthrough">
    <portname>/dev/tty.USB1</portname>
</driver>

Port + Speed:

<driver name="serialpassthrough">
    <portname>/dev/tty.USB2</portname>
    <rate>19200</rate>
</driver>

Full configuration:

<driver name="serialpassthrough">
    <portname>COM1</portname>
    <rate>19200</rate>
    <parity>8</parity>
    <databits>1</databits>
    <stopbits>N</stopbits>
</driver>
