Re: Station Not connecting to Linux mint
On Linux your comm port will not be COM2, it will be something like "/dev/ttyusb0" or such. You need to check in the /dev folder and see what appears.
Edit: assuming you are using a USB/serial adapter.

Re: Station Not connecting to Linux mint
Thanks Mark for pointing me in the right direction. I used '/dev/ttyUSB0', it seemed to be case sensitive.
