How to use uart communication in nonos

Question

I am using NonOS.

I am trying to add UART communication.

While following along using the deviceintegration example It seemed like I needed to use a Guithread() function.

However, since guithread is only for freertos, is there any other solution?

Answer 1

Hello,

please try again the mentioned example "DeviceIntegration" and set the define EW_USE_OPERATING_SYSTEM to 0 (within the makefile). Then the example will operate as bare-metal application.

In this case, the communication with the hardware is not done within a separate thread - now, the function DeviceDriver_ProcessData() is used.

Please have a look to the file DeviceDriver.c and see the inline comments.

I hope this helps.

Best regards,
Manfred.
