I am testing some boards and the system used to test these is Tera Term. In Tera Term I use the Serial Port to send commands to the board in order to log in and run certain settings that I want.

Instead of typing these commands each time I test a board I want to create a program that sends these commands without the requirement to type them again and again each time.

Also I need to set a delay between each command as the system needs to to load between them.

Question
How can automate the typing of commands and delay between subsequent commands in teraterm?

I used the Tera Term Language (TTL) and created a macro which solved my problem. I used code to wait for a prompt from the system and then print out the command I wanted.

Here's a link to the TTL syntax:
