# UART RS485 Echo Example
|
||||
|
||||
This is an example which echoes any data it receives on UART2 back to the sender in the RS485 network.
|
||||
(See the README.md file in the upper level 'examples' directory for more information about examples.)
|
||||
|
||||
This is an example which echoes any data it receives on UART2 back to the sender in the RS485 network.
|
||||
It uses ESP-IDF UART software driver in RS485 half duplex transmission mode and requires external connection of bus drivers.
|
||||
The approach demonstrated in this example can be used in user application to transmit/receive data in RS485 networks.
|
||||
|
||||
## Hardware required :
|
||||
PC + USB Serial adapter connected to USB port + RS485 line drivers + ESP32 WROVER-KIT board.

|
||||
The MAX485 line driver is used for example below but other similar chips can be used as well.

### Configure the application
|
||||
### Configure the project
|
||||
```
|
||||
make menuconfig
|
||||
```
|
||||
* Set serial port under Serial Flasher Options to the serial port of ESP32 WROVER-KIT board.
|
||||
or
|
||||
```
|
||||
idf.py menuconfig
|
||||
```
|
||||
* Set serial port under Serial Flasher Options to the serial port of ESP32-WROVER-KIT board.

### Build and flash software
|
||||
### Build and Flash
|
||||
Build the project and flash it to the board, then run monitor tool to view serial output:
|
||||
```
|
||||
make -j4 flash monitor
|
||||
```
|
||||
or
|
||||
```
|
||||
idf.py flash monitor
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
(To exit the serial monitor, type ``Ctrl-]``.)
|
||||
|
||||
See the Getting Started Guide for full steps to configure and use ESP-IDF to build projects.
|
||||
|
||||
### Setup external terminal software
|
||||
Refer to the example and set up a serial terminal program to the same settings as of UART in ESP32 WROVER-KIT BOARD.
|
||||
Open the external serial interface in the terminal. By default if no any symbols received the application sends character "." to check transmission side.
|
||||
When typing message and push send button in the terminal you should see the message "RS485 Received: [ your message ], where your message is the message you sent from terminal.
|
||||
Verify if echo indeed comes from ESP32 by disconnecting either 'TxD' or 'RxD' pin. There should be no any "." once TxD pin is disconnected.
|
||||
#### Setup external terminal software
|
||||
Refer to the example and set up a serial terminal program to the same settings as of UART in ESP32-WROVER-KIT board.
|
||||
Open the external serial interface in the terminal. By default if no any symbols are received, the application sends character `.` to check transmission side.
|
||||
When typing message and push send button in the terminal you should see the message `RS485 Received: [ your message ]`, where "your message" is the message you sent from terminal.
|
||||
Verify if echo indeed comes from ESP32 by disconnecting either `TxD` or `RxD` pin. Once done there should be no any `.` displayed.

## Troubleshooting
|
||||
Most of the issues when example software does not show the '.' symbol related to connection errors of external RS485 interface.
|
||||
Check the RS485 interface connection with the environment according to schematic above and restart the application.
|
||||
Then start terminal software and open appropriate serial port.
