As I don't use Minicom then I don't know its quirks but......
This assumes you have Minicom running.
1) Change (F) to No ; this disables HW control.
2) You can leave (E) alone FTTB.
3) Connect the loopback plug to the serial port.
4) Just typing on the keyboard now should print the characters to the terminal emulator window.
5) Now try changing (G) to Yes and try again.
6) Let us know your results...
Right, you have in theory __proven__ your serial port is working; now give us a detailed description of what you intend/or_have connected to it, (e.g. modem, Arduino, etc)...
Turn off all flow control FTTB as this will rspond as a 3 wire, (possibly 2 wire with mods), system.
I am not sure if you require 8 bit data but if so set (E) to 9600 8N1, 9600bps, 8 bits, No parity and 1 stop bit. Remember RS232 by default is an NRZ device so 9600 is about the limit of reliable _error_free_ speed without some form of flow control.
Note:- HW I can help with remote networking is more the domain of the professionals on here.
I'm sure it's just an error with my modification to the command. I think the ? may be an error indication. It would help to know what type of scale it is. Does it work with 'W\n' or 'W\r\n' in printf?
