Serial connection to G2


 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

I haven¡¯t tried to use the serial port on the G2 I have so it¡¯s possible that it¡¯s broken as the G2 wasn¡¯t new when Tanya sent it to me for developing the Servo firmware.

?

Here¡¯s what I had with my G1? (with serial port modified to supply 5V on pin 1)

?

?????????????? Bluetooth??????????? G1

?????????????? 1 ????????????????????????????????????????? NC

?????????????? 2???????????? ->?????????? 1???????????? 5V

?????????????? 3???????????? ->?????????? 2???????????? GND

??????? TX? 4 ??????????? ->?????????? 3???????????? RX

??????? RX? 5???????????? ->?????????? 4???????????? TX

?????????????? 6?????????????????????????????????????????? NC

?

I made up a new lead to connect to the G2

?

?????????????? Bluetooth??????????? G2

?????????????? 1 ????????????????????????????????????????? NC

?????????????? 2???????????? ->?????????? 1???????????? 5V

?????????????? 3???????????? ->?????????? 3???????????? GND

??????? TX? 4 ??????????? ->?????????? 2???????????? RX

??????? RX? 5???????????? ->?????????? 5???????????? TX

?????????????? 6?????????????????????????????????????????? NC

?

Which I am pretty sure is correct (please tell me if I¡¯ve got it wrong ¨C it would be easy to do).

I¡¯ve checked the cable for continuity

?

Baud rate is set to 9600 in Gemini.net and the lead is plugged into the Serial/GPS port on the G2.

The web pages tell me that is also set to 9600 (unlike the HC port which is set to 57600).

?

Gemini.net says connected, and then times out and gives up after a couple of attempts.

?

Have goofed this up or?
