Simple question regarding multiple Serial connections on Core2 (UART + USB)



  • Hi dear everyone,

    I simply want to send an image from UnitCam + Core2/Bottom2 to the computer.
    I am using the cam2core example. The cameras UART connection is bound to the original serial port! I tried Serial1 and Serial2 but without success. I didn't find any resources on Serial1 and Serial2, so maybe it is not possible to route the two Serial connections at the same time? Maybe I could use sth. like the 'Soft-Serial' Library?

    Best



  • I found this info on Serials on stackoverflow

    The only serial port connected to the USB that the serial monitor can read from is Serial.
    Serial1, Serial2, and Serial3 are all logic level serial and will not show up on the Arduino serial monitor.
    If you want to see the output from these on your computer, it will require extra hardware.

    I maybe will try to route the UnitCam UART to Serial1 or 2



  • I think it works. I am just using
    Serial2.begin(1500000); for the camera and Serial seems to be free.
