Hi,

I am currently using the Serial object for some TX/RX communication.

I am trying to find a way to use a terminal via USB to debug my application but I am bit confused.

Can it be done using the Serial1 object?

Right now, I am still seeing the output of Serial...

or do I need something like http://www.wulfden.org/TheShoppe/pa/USB_BUB.jpg and debug via another com?

thanx for your help.

The USB connector and on board FTDI usb serial converter is hardwired to the serial object, pins 0 & 1 only. You could use serial1,2, or 3 if you use an external USB FTDI converter such as you showed.
