UART Receive

Supported Targets: Olimexino, E407, P405

General information about UART Receive

Reads a byte from the UART reception buffer.

Outputs Output 1: The value of the receive byte. Output 2: When the status output is 0, the reception buffer was empty.

Block

Mask

Inputs (inports)

Data (byte) to send to the slave device.[uint8] Note: To send multiple bytes use mutliple Master Transfer blocks

Outputs (outports)

(optional) If this output has a value of 0, the UART driver could not be initialized. This happens if no space could be allocated on the heap for the transmit and/or receive buffer. Use the 'Get free heap' block to verify that enough space is available on the heap. The used datatype is boolean.

Block parameters

Parameter	Description
Channel	Select channelfor UART communication
Baudrate	Select the baudrate to be used for the communication
Databits	Select the number of databits per message. (8 or 9)
Parity	Select whether to use the parity bit and if it should be odd or even.
Stopbits	Select the number of stopbits.
TransmitBufferSize	Enter the size (in bytes) of the buffer for transmitting. The buffer space is reserved in HEAP.
ReceiveBufferSize	Enter the size (in bytes) of the buffer for receiving. The buffer space is reserved in HEAP.
Use status output	Enable the status output to check if the initialization has been successful.
