Dear Freescale,

I've FRDMK64 board and need to interface WIFI through UART interface (mainly) so can I have any wifi UART example code.

Regards,

Titus S.

Addition to that, need LCD interface (16x2) code.

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

After install MQX you can find at the path: C:\Freescale\Freescale_MQX_4_1\mqx\examples the below examples that you can use as reference:

multidrop Demonstration of the UART-based multidrop

rs485 Shows how to use the RS485 over a serial driver.

For wifi, the TWR-K60D100M-KIT is compatible will all three Tower WIFI modules.( 1.TWR-WIFI-GS1500M 2.TWR-WIFI-AR4100 3.TWR-WIFI-RS2101). Unfortunately there is no support for FRDMK64

Regarding the LCD, unfortunately there is not driver for LCD in MQX, however you can create a task and write your own code like a bareboard project. Please check the below thread as reference.

Have a great day,

For the FRDM board, you can use the xPico Wi-Fi Arduino shield from Lantronix:

Lantronix xPico Wi-Fi Shield

You don't need any software, just configure the xPico Wi-Fi's UART as Tunnel, and any data you send to the serial port will be sent to the server that you preconfigure.

Or configure the UART to be Modem Emulation instead of UART, and use standard AT commands to make the connection.
