I’m using Digi Connect ME9210 and working with this module through serial interface.  
My problem is that even if on my apllication I disabled the echo, I see that what I’m writing on serial port comes back from Digi serial port, how can I disable it?

Thanks

Hello assuming you are running NET+OS, by defaul application is set to output dialog out to Port1, you can set this option to FALSE inside the BSP directory file bss\_sys.h. This is set to true by default. Please see below:  
/_ad_

- Set this to TRUE to run the dialog code during startup.
- 
- @since 6.2
- @external
- @category BSP:BSP\_Configuration
- 
- @note when @link BSP\_FAST\_BOOT\_OPTION is TRUE,
- this setting will be set to FALSE.  
_ad_/  
#ifndef BSP\_ENABLE\_DIALOG  
#define BSP\_ENABLE\_DIALOG TRUE  
#endif

/\*

- BSP\_STDIO\_PORT determines which serial port stdin, stdout, and stderr should be redirected to.
- It should be set to the device name of the port or NULL.
- 
- @external
- @category BSP:BSP\_Configuration
- @since 7.1  
\*/  
#define BSP\_STDIO\_PORT “/com/0”

/\*

- BSP\_DIALOG\_PORT determines whether or not the initialization code will prompt for configuration
- parameters. It should be set to a string that contains the serial port to prompt with. If it
- is not set, or if it contains an invalid port, then the initialization code will not prompt for
- configuration parameters.
