SSCom V5.13.1 (English Version): The Unofficial User Guide

SSCom (often referred to as SSCOM) is a popular, lightweight, and robust serial port debugging tool widely used in embedded systems development, IoT debugging, and electronics hobbyism. It is favored over alternatives like Putty or TeraTerm because of its rich feature set (like HEX display, timestamping, and automated protocols) packed into a single, small executable.

Note: This software is developed by a Chinese developer. While V5.13.1 may have partial English or require translation, this guide covers the standard functionality based on the universally recognized interface. SSCom V5

Why Version 5.13.1 Specifically?

Later versions of Sscom (5.14, 5.15, etc.) exist, but many of them introduced: Why Version 5

Version 5.13.1 is widely regarded as the last “pure” release – stable, no background internet access, and all features working as documented. It is the recommended version for production environments.

3. Setting Up a Connection

Before you can debug, you must connect to your hardware (ESP32, Arduino, STM32, etc.).

  1. Connect the Hardware: Plug your device via USB.
  2. Select Port:
    • Find the dropdown labeled Port (or COM).
    • Click the "Search" icon (magnifying glass) or the dropdown arrow to list available ports.
    • Select the correct COM port (e.g., COM3, COM4).
  3. Set Baud Rate:
    • Find the dropdown labeled Baud (or Baudrate).
    • Select the speed your device uses (Common speeds: 9600, 115200).
  4. Other Settings (usually default):
    • Data Bits: 8
    • Stop Bits: 1
    • Parity: None
    • Flow Control: None
  5. Connect: Click the "Open COM" button.
    • If successful, the button will turn Red or change to "Close COM".
    • If it fails (Port busy), ensure no other software (Arduino IDE Serial Monitor, Putty) is using that port.
