    I have a simple test application that opens up a comm port and echoes back what it receives. This works fine in the emulator. But when I try to run it on the target, I don't get any loopback.

    My first attempt exited with an error because I was using COM1, which apparently gets used by the USB for active sync. So I switched to COM2. No error, but no loopback either. I know the connection is good, because I can talk to LOLO before I boot CE. I have KITL turned off in the image, but I guess something is still stealing the serial port.

    How do I use the serial port on the SDK?

    Thanks,

    Dale

    Just thought I'd post share what I found.

    Turns out the serial port on the SDK is COM3. This fact, coupled with some config changes solved the problem.
