4.15 SP9: UART Multiplexing

UART channels from four sources are multiplexed into one UART channel, which is connected to the

OEM Board:

 Serial Expansion Connector / RF module. Note that if the RF module is soldered to the board,

then UART channel on the Serial Expansion Connector is occupied.

 LCD Expansion connector

 RS422/485 Interface

 RS232 Interface

The multiplexing is static, in the sense that a change in the multiplexor setting requires jumpers to be

moved. It is not controlled from the OEM Board. The picture below shows where to find the pin list to

control multiplexing and the different settings. The table lists signal connection.
