Virtual local port
Remote applications can connect through a familiar COM or TTY-style port instead of learning a new tool.
Virtual COM & serial sharing
Open a physical serial port on the host and present a usable local port to the remote engineer. Keep familiar terminal, flashing, diagnostic, and monitoring tools in the workflow.
What you can do
Remote applications can connect through a familiar COM or TTY-style port instead of learning a new tool.
Common baud rates, hardware flow control, software flow control, and the DTR/RTS signals used by many boards are supported.
Use RS-232, RS-485, UART, Modbus serial equipment, console ports, and field devices from a remote location.
NullPort prevents two sessions from taking control of the same physical serial port at once.
Connect Windows, Linux, macOS, Raspberry Pi, and other supported embedded endpoints.
Live sessions report real port-open results and handle recoverable read interruptions without hiding permanent failures.
A clear workflow
Choose the detected port and the settings your equipment expects.
Share the one-use 12-character code with the person who needs access.
The guest chooses the local port name and continues in their usual application.
Common questions
Yes, when the board and flashing tool use a supported serial or USB workflow. NullPort carries the data and the control signals commonly required to enter programming mode.
NullPort supports common high-speed rates and negotiates compatible settings between endpoints. Hardware and operating-system limits still apply.
A physical serial port is held exclusively for the active control session to avoid conflicting commands.
