U0_RTS - driving RS485

Hi,

I want to drive my RS485 transceiver by U0_RTS, I´ve managed it by software, but I would like to do it by hardware.

Some of my steps:

Chip_SWM_MovablePinAssign(SWM_U0_RTS_O, 1);

Chip_UART_ConfigData(LPC_USART0, UART_CFG_DATALEN_8 | UART_CFG_PARITY_NONE | UART_CFG_STOPLEN_1 | UART_CFG_LOOP);

This code works fine but I cant receive anything from UART. Whenever I remove UART_CFG_LOOP, U0_RTS on PIO_01 doesn´t work anymore. I´ve tried lot of variations, but still without succes. Signal si controlled by oscilloscope, so there is problem only with pin with U0_RTS signal (I think).

Hi,

thanks for reply. I´ve checked state of DIR/RTS pin (pin which should control TX/RX) with oscilloscope and it didn´t work. I guess, that problem is somewhere in my setting.

Dear Wojtkingson ,

Have you checked the DIR pin of RS485 trans-reciever ic.

You an check the conenctions of RS485 in internet as how it works.
This DIR pin is ued to set up the trans receiver in Tx or Tx mode.

Thanks,
