Ag xtr 25: RS-232 Tx&Rx example

The example is just a basic demonstration of RS-232 usage on the Smart Agriculture Xtreme board

Required Materials

- 1 Waspmote Plug & Sense! Smart Agriculture Xtreme - 1 Terminal box probe - 1 wire between TX and RX

Notes

- This example is only valid for Waspmote v15

Code

/*
    ----------- [Ag_xtr_25] - RS-232 Tx&Rx example --------------------

    Explanation: This code simply sends dummy data through the TX pin
    on SOCKET_F and looks for received data on RX pin.

    Placing a jumper wire between TX and RX you can echo the data and test
    the serial communication without any peripheral.

    It is mandatory to turn on the Board to use the RS-232.

    Note: This example has not been tested with other sensors or the full
    Waspmote ecosystem. It is just a basic demonstration of RS-232 usage on
    the Smart Agriculture Xtreme board. If you have any questions, please
    contact the Libelium technical service.
