I am able to access the ts-7500 remotely without any problems. For our
application I just needed hard wired backup if their is a network malfunction
of some sort for debugging purposes. For logging in remotely i have been just
using ssh and i get a command prompt which suits our needs.
The situation i am trying to prepare for is if the end user is out in the
middle of nowhere with this and is unable to communicate wirelessly with the
board. I can then walk them through the steps of connecting directly to the
board via a wired serial connection to get a command prompt to go through the
application error logs, or linux logs.
Thanks for the information on xuartctl.
