UnitV UART out to Raspberry Pi GPIO
-
I have the UnitV Sending output via UART GROVE to a M5StickC. Is it possible to attach to a raspberry pi GPIO and read the signal?
I have read that PIN 8 and 10 on the Raspberry Pi are UART TX and RX.
Has any one tried and confirmed this is possible. I will attempt this and report any findings.Thanks

I don’t see that there will be a problem you just need to make sure that the raspberry pi can understand the the unifV is telling it

I got it work using python serial on the raspberry pi. It's now reading the input from the UnitV and performing functions based on that input.
I did need to disable the serial console on the Pi as it was causing issues.
I think the UnitV requires the 5v input as its not powering enough with the 3.3v using the GROVE connection.

@kylebuttress I saw that you managed to get the UART connection working between the M5Stack UnitV2 and Raspberry Pi, and it's functioning well. Could you share the steps and settings you used to disable the serial console on the Raspberry Pi? Additionally, did you use any specific Python libraries or tools to read data from the UnitV via UART?
