Hello, I was hoping to alter the TI software UART code to make it work
with the second timer A on my device, to ultimately use it with a
bluesmirf while also having a connection to my pc. The problem is I
cannot get much response out of it so I piggy backed the UART on 2.1 and
2.2 to pins 1.1 and 1.2 and am getting no sign of it working on my
computer. I'm not sure if this is because I have done something stupid
when altering the code or it is to do with the state of pin 1.1 and 1.2
messing up the signal. What state should I leave pins 1.1 and 1.2 so
they have no affect on the signal? I was thinking inputs :/
Heres my altered TI code just in case anyone can spot an obvious mistake:
