Python serial


__init__(port=None, baudrate=9600, bytesize=EIGHTBITS, parity=PARITY_NONE, stopbits=STOPBITS_ONE, timeout=None, xonxoff=False, rtscts=False, write_timeout=None, dsrdtr=False, inter_byte_timeout=None)
Parameters:
  • port – Device name or None.
  • baudrate (int) – Baud rate such as 9600 or 115200 etc.
  • bytesize – Number of data bits. Possible values: FIVEBITS, SIXBITS, SEVENBITS, EIGHTBITS
  • parity – Enable parity checking. Possible values: PARITY_NONE, PARITY_EVEN, PARITY_ODD PARITY_MARK, PARITY_SPACE
  • stopbits – Number of stop bits. Possible values: STOPBITS_ONE, STOPBITS_ONE_POINT_FIVE, STOPBITS_TWO
  • timeout (float) – Set a read timeout value.
  • xonxoff (bool) – Enable software flow control.
  • rtscts (bool) – Enable hardware (RTS/CTS) flow control.
  • dsrdtr (bool) – Enable hardware (DSR/DTR) flow control.
  • write_timeout (float) – Set a write timeout value.
  • inter_byte_timeout (float) – Inter-character timeout, None to disable (default).

Raises:

  • ValueError – Will be raised when parameter are out of range, e.g. baud rate, data bits.
  • SerialException – In case the device can not be found or can not be configured.
