connectSerialPort() [2/2]

void connectSerialPort	(	uint32_t	baud,
		int	dataLength,
		char	parity,
		float	stopBits,
		int	rxPin,
		int	txPin,
		FlowControl	flowControl,
		bool	inverted = false,
		int	rtsPin = -1,
		int	ctsPin = -1
	)

Connects a remote host using UART.

When serial port is set, the typed keys on PS/2 keyboard are encoded as ANSI/VT100 codes and then sent to the specified serial port.
Also replies to terminal queries like terminal identification, cursor position, etc.. will be sent to the serial port.
This method setups the UART2 with specified parameters. Received characters are handlded using interrupts freeing main loop to do something other.

This is the preferred way to connect the Terminal with a serial port.
You may call connectSerialPort whenever a parameters needs to be changed (except for rx and tx pins).

Parameters

baud	Baud rate.
dataLength	Data word length. 5 = 5 bits, 6 = 6 bits, 7 = 7 bits, 8 = 8 bits
parity	Parity. 'N' = none, 'E' = even, 'O' = odd
stopBits	Number of stop bits. 1 = 1 bit, 1.5 = 1.5 bits, 2 = 2 bits, 3 = 3 bits
rxPin	UART RX pin GPIO number.
txPin	UART TX pin GPIO number.
flowControl	Flow control.
inverted	If true RX and TX signals are inverted.
rtsPin	RTS signal GPIO number (-1 = not used)
ctsPin	CTS signal GPIO number (-1 = not used)

Example:

Terminal.begin(&DisplayController);
Terminal.connectSerialPort(115200, 8, 'N', 1, 34, 2, FlowControl::Software);
