No, because my current set up won't match what you have/will have. Key points are that the Rx & Tx lines use 3.3V logic level, so you must be sure that your USB interface also uses 3.3V logic level, and not 5V as many do/did. I also see that many USB interfaces currently available will also supply a 3.3V or 5V power line as well as GND,Tx,Rx. Do NOT be tempted to connect that to the Radio's 3.3V power line (which shows in my picture), that way lies the potential for trouble. You don't want TWO providers of power on the Radio's 3.3V power line. Check and double check all connections and voltages before you start. People must be doing this with Raspberry Pi boards, so there will be be plenty of knowledge out there. FTDI based adapters seem to be well supported, but it will depend on your host OS. Baud rate is 115200, and I did not concern myself with other serial communication settings (stty), it just worked (or worked well enough not to need tweaking). The only reason you want to do this is that you have no other way of identifying and addressing the problem. It would be a pity if it proves to be due to an issue with ethernet or wifi connectivity, and resolvable in another way. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mrw's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=38299 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=112339 _______________________________________________ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
