Using the OpenLog to log data from a different device

Other
1

Hello!

I own several OpenLog devices, I also own a number of devices from Adafruit which can be programmed using the Arduino sketch concept. One of theirs is the 32u4 equipped device, which is the “Adafruit Feather 32u4 Basic Proto”. I’d like to use one of the OpenLog devices to record data streaming from the serial port common to Arduino styled platforms. Please note that these Feather devices are some what nonstandard in their layout.

An OpenLog could record the output of Serial1 on the 32U4 Feather (pins labeled RX, TX), but not the native USB Serial output.

Hello!

I agree. I don’t plan on logging data from the USB port, its only used to program it. The conventional serial1 port is used.

Hello!

This is aimed towards the Sparkfun staff people directly.

Something else, the examples all show the DTR connection on the log shown as connected to the DTR connection on the target board. Will it matter on a board that doesn’t have such a port?
