Re: Using the tx/rx pins not for UART

Hi Brad, I'm not 100% sure but I think in the ESP-toolchain (or in the LUA-Firmware?!) there is a function to swap the pins of UART 0 to 2 other pins. That could maybe also used, just disconnect REPL when using the UART on the other to pins. But this is also a rather dirty hack Reconnecting the REPL...

Re: Using the tx/rx pins not for UART

Wouldn't it be smart to set a flag when micropython-serial opens the UART? This could work automatically.

Re: Using the tx/rx pins not for UART

Hi Brad,

I had some spare time an looked at your patch. The only thing I'm missing is where you set uart_os. That's in eps.debug I guess?

Re: Using the tx/rx pins not for UART

Hi,

I also want to use the UART to talk to an external device and would love to disable REPL-traffic in the UART. Can you please be more precise what you changed? Or maybe you can just share the binary to put on the board?
