watch_enable_uart()

void watch_enable_uart	(	const uint8_t	tx_pin,
		const uint8_t	rx_pin,
		uint32_t	baud
	)

Initializes the debug UART.

Parameters

tx_pin	The pin the watch will use to transmit, or 0 for a receive-only UART. If specified, must be either A2 or A4.
rx_pin	The pin the watch will use to receive, or 0 for a transmit-only UART. If specified, must be A1, A2, A3 or A4 (pin A0 cannot receive UART data).
baud	The baud rate for the UART. A typical value is 19200.

watch_uart_getc()

char watch_uart_getc

(

void

)

Receives a single byte from the UART's RX pin.

Returns

the received byte.

Note

This method will block until a byte is received!

watch_uart_puts()

void watch_uart_puts

(

char *

s

)

Transmits a string of bytes on the UART's TX pin.

Parameters

s	A null-terminated string containing the bytes you wish to transmit.
