Serial library¶
The serial library allows to print the screen on a serial console as an image or a pixmap table to be used as a header file.
-
The image on serial console option prints a header file on the serial console.
-
The pixmap table on serial console option prints a header file on the serial console.
The header file needs to be included into an application at build-time and displayed at the next run-time.
To summarise,
Method | Image print | Pixmap print |
---|---|---|
Screens | Fast | Fast |
Save on | Serial console | Serial console |
Save as | Image structure | Pixmap table |
Generated at | Run-time | Run-time |
Read from | Header file | Header file |
Included at | Build-time | Build-time |
The header file on serial console library is available on the Evaluation and Commercial editions.
Configure¶
No configuration is required, as the output is the default serial console.

-
Print screen content to the serial console at run-time on an SD-card to be included in an application at build-time.
