ESP32 Forum

Hi,

I have ESP32 from WeMos. Using uart0 for DEBUG thourgh USB. I configured uart1 to GPIO4(RX), GPIO2(tx). Plugged uart1 to USB serial converter.

Both uarts running at 115200bps. Uart1 should work as communication betweern AI Thinker A7 (GSM module). I'm basicly trying to write "AT\r". What I can see is only "AA...". I also tested GSM module it works (with USB-serial) (in this point, GSM module is not attached!). uart1 is attached to USB-Serial.

If I change in my program to I can see correct output. There must be definitely some problem with uart1.

Serial monitors: Arduino IDE

Configuration: Any idea what's my problem? Thanks

Hi. Try using UART_NUM_2. I could't get UART1 working in esp-idf nor Arduino but UART2 worked as expected.

Hi,

Would.you please share whole.code include task code which you have created at the end?

Because, we have successfully configured both UART1 and UART2 in our application and it works fine without any issue.
