API Interface
When the USB-UART Cable is connected from board to PC, the PC will expose a serial (COM) port.
You can find this port in Windows in
Device Manager > COM Ports.
Use the following settings for
the serial port:
o
Baud rate: 115200
o
Data bits: 8
o
Parity: None
o
Stop bits: 1
o
Flow control: None
The serial link is shared by the carrier board and the module endpoints, one at a time. The API
endpoint mode can be cycled by pressing the API Mode Cycle button S2. API Mode LED D11
indicates the endpoint that is currently linked.
