Putty ymodem file transfer

broken image

I start screen with ‘screen /dev/ttyUSB0 115200’. Hopefully I’ve sprinkled enough relevant terms in this post to help somebody else with this issue. It was a little struggle to figure out the correct syntax for this, because Screen has a google-incompatible name. This seems fine, but for some reason it dumps a few random characters on the serial line after the file is transferred, falsely answering the multiple choice menu to decide between runtime, diag, multiple image or loader. So instead of switching between PuTTy and HyperTerminal all the time, I tried to use a different terminal emulator ‘TeraTerm Pro’. so I often used HyperTerminal, but the GUI of Hyperterminal annoys me. PuTTy on Windows does not support zmodem, xmodem, etc.
