STM32F407VGT6Z UART Communication - No data appearing in serial terminal - c

Question

I am trying to send the string "Text " to my console on the PC to which my STM board is connected. Listed below is the configuration for the console:
CONSOLE CONFIGURATION
Nothing actually appears in the console when the board is connected and the console is open. I have placed a flashing green light before and after the transmit function to ensure that it is actually executing. Any help would be appreciated.
Below is the code in the main.c file.
#include "main.h"
