To customize the operating mode for nRF Terminal profile actions, open the Settings editor and type nrf-terminal.terminalMode.
The nRF Terminal profiles can work in one of the following modes:
| Mode | Description |
|---|---|
character (default) |
In this mode, every key-press is sent directly to the connected device. This is useful for interacting with device shells, such as the Zephyr Shell. |
line |
In this mode, the terminal displays the characters typed and then submits them to the device as a single message when you click Enter. This is useful for AT sessions and other non-shell interactions. |
