Note:
By default, USART1 (PA9/PA10) is used in the NUCLEO-L073RZ board to control the RHF0M003-LF20 modem.
Optionally, it is possible to use USART2 (PA2/PA3) via jumper resistor on the LRWAN_NS1. Refer to its user
manual. If USART2 (PA2/PA3) is used to control the modem, the following solder bridge on the Nucleo board
must be configured accordingly:
•
SB62 and SB63 are closed
•
SB13 and SB14 are opened to disconnect the STM32 UART from ST-LINK
Refer to
in the USART Communication section for more details.
