macos - Serial Port Hangs

Question

I have a usb to serial FTDI adaptor connected to my mac. I am able to use the command:

screen /dev/tty.usbserial-A601L9OC

This opens a serial terminal for the port and everything works fine. But when I try to send characters to the serial port via the command:

root# echo 'a' > /dev/tty.usbserial-A601L9OC 

the command hangs and nothing is ever sent. A similar thing happens when I try to connect to it in a c program. The program hangs trying to open the serial port:

int fd = open("/dev/tty.usbserial-A601L9OC", O_RDWR | O_NOCTTY | O_SYNC);

When I run stty on the port it prints:

root# stty -f  /dev/tty.usbserial-A601L9OC
speed 9600 baud;
lflags: -icanon -isig -iexten -echo
iflags: -icrnl -ixon -ixany -imaxbel -brkint
oflags: -opost -onlcr -oxtabs
cflags: cs8 -parenb

which looks correct. Does anybody have an ideas as to why these commands hang and never send when connecting to the serial port yet screen works just fine? Any help will be appreciated.

Update: The results of getting info from stty

bash-3.2# stty -a -f /dev/tty.usbserial-A601L9OC

Answer 1

请改用该设备/dev/cu.usbserial-A601L9OC，并将速度也设置为 9600 波特。这是Magnus 的 macrumor 帖子中的一个示例：

strcpy(bsdPath, "/dev/cu.usbserial-A601L9OC");
fileDescriptor = open(bsdPath, O_RDWR);
if (-1 == fileDescriptor)
{
return EX_IOERR;
}

struct termios theTermios;
memset(&theTermios, 0, sizeof(struct termios));
cfmakeraw(&theTermios);
cfsetspeed(&theTermios, 9600);
theTermios.c_cflag = CREAD | CLOCAL;     // turn on READ and ignore modem control lines
theTermios.c_cflag |= CS8;
theTermios.c_cc[VMIN] = 0;
theTermios.c_cc[VTIME] = 10;     // 1 sec timeout
int ret = ioctl(fileDescriptor, TIOCSETA, &theTermios);

ret = read(fileDescriptor, &c, 1);

使用 O_NONBLOCK 否则打开等待载波检测。
