Hi, Does anyone know how to use the typical TTL to RS485 converter (based on MAX485) with the MX7 board? Or can point me to a code example of read/write type? Thanks in advance.

It seems to do what I'm looking for however it's not clear to me which of the UARTs from the mx7 it will be using... :( Can you give me a hand? From the manual I can have up to 6 different UARTs from this PIC...

It uses whichever you tell it to. It wraps around the Serial objects.

OK. I'll give it a try with UART 3 on JF
