Viewing Logs in Real Time

Reading Logs​

To recieve the logs provided on these levels, we need to set the device's log level in the settings.

To do this, we navigate to Applications->Settings->System

From here, you can set the log level of your flipper device.

Now that you have your devices log level set up, we need to connect to the flipper over a serial connection.

There are many ways to see the serial line that your flipper is on, but the easiest is probably to just open up qFlipper.

On my device, it seems to be on /dev/ttyACM0.

On Windows, it will typically be COM* On *nix, it will typically be /dev/tty*

Interfacing with the CLI​

Windows​

For Windows systems, I recommend PuTTY to interface with your serial connection.

To connect to your serial line, select "Serial" under connection type, and type in the location.

Now, just enter log and there you go!

*nix​

There are many tools, but I would recommend PuTTY, or screen, a popular utility for linux.

Once inside the serial connection, type log, and now you can see your logs!
