# UART Asynchronous Example with Separate Receive and Transfer Tasks
|
|
|
|
(See the README.md file in the upper level 'examples' directory for more information about examples.)
|
|
|
|
This example demonstrates how two asynchronous tasks can use the same UART interface for communication. One can use
|
|
this example to develop more complex applications for serial communication.
|
|
|
|
The example starts two FreeRTOS tasks:
|
|
1. The first task periodically transmits `Hello world` via the UART.
|
|
2. The second task task listens, receives and prints data from the UART.
|
|
|
|
## How to use example
|
|
|
|
### Hardware Required
|
|
|
|
The example can be run on any commonly available ESP32 development board. You will need a USB cable to connect the
|
|
development board to a computer, and a simple one-wire cable for shorting two pins of the board.
|
|
|
|
### Setup the Hardware
|
|
|
|
The `RXD_PIN` and `TXD_PIN` which are configurable in the code (by default `GPIO4` and `GPIO5`) need to be shorted in
|
|
order to receive back the same data which were sent out.
|
|
|
|
### Configure the project
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
make menuconfig
|
|
```
|
|
or
|
|
```
|
|
idf.py menuconfig
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* Set serial port under Serial Flasher Options.
|
|
|
|
### Build and Flash
|
|
|
|
Build the project and flash it to the board, then run monitor tool to view serial output:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
make -j4 flash monitor
|
|
```
|
|
or
|
|
```
|
|
idf.py flash monitor
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
(To exit the serial monitor, type ``Ctrl-]``.)
|
|
|
|
See the Getting Started Guide for full steps to configure and use ESP-IDF to build projects.
|
|
|
|
## Example Output
|
|
|
|
You will receive the following repeating output from the monitoring console:
|
|
```
|
|
...
|
|
I (3261) TX_TASK: Wrote 11 bytes
|
|
I (4261) RX_TASK: Read 11 bytes: 'Hello world'
|
|
I (4261) RX_TASK: 0x3ffb821c 48 65 6c 6c 6f 20 77 6f 72 6c 64 |Hello world|
|
|
...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
If you do not see any output from `RX_TASK` then check if you have the `RXD_PIN` and `TXD_PIN` pins shorted on the board.
