Connect to pixhawk4 with FTDI cable,  
I want to debug mixer.cpp, and want to see debug message in the code  
`isr_debug(1, "AP RX timeout");`  
–try `px4io debug 5`，nothing happened  
–write some “printf”to mixer.cpp, cant see any message from nsh  
–move FTDI cable to IO debug port, there will be black squares, or some gibberish

* * *

when the cable connect to fmu debug port, it works well
