Bus Pirate: UART
Summary
This documentation describes the basic steps to connect to an UART-capable device using Bus Pirate v3.6
Requirements
- Serial connection to the Bus Pirate (e.g. using Putty)
- UART-capable device to connect to
If the currently installed Firmware doesn't support UART mode, check Bus Pirate: First steps to install a different firmware.
UART Connection
Step 1
Connect the Pins of the Bus Pirate to the UART-device:
| Bus Pirate | UART-device |
|---|---|
| MOSI (TX) | RX |
| MISO (RX) | TX |
| GND | GND |
Step 2
Connect to the Bus Pirate using serial connection (e.g. using Putty) with baud rate 115200.
Type m to start the mode selection.
Select the UART and enter the settings (baud rate, etc.) according to the specifications of the UART-device.
After setting the correct values, type W to enable the power supplies. Now it is possible to read values using r, send values like ASCII text using "text" and more.
Type ? to see a list of available commands.
