CCS/LAUNCHXL-CC1352R1: Input from terminal to board

Hi Haim,

The CC32xx family of devices perform this in the network_terminal example in the SDK. Here's a function from that project used to get a command string from UART (the terminal window):

//*****************************************************************************
//
//! Get the Command string from UART
//!
//! \param[in]  pucBuffer   - is the command store to which command will be
//!                           populated
//! \param[in]  ucBufLen    - is the length of buffer store available
//!
//! \return Length of the bytes received. -1 if buffer length exceeded.
//!
//*****************************************************************************
int GetCmd(char *pcBuffer,
           unsigned int uiBufLen)
{
    char cChar;
    int iLen = 0;

    UART_readPolling(uartHandle, &cChar, 1);

    iLen = 0;

    //
    // Checking the end of Command
    //
    while(1)
    {
        //
        // Handling overflow of buffer
        //
        if(iLen >= uiBufLen)
        {
            return(-1);
        }

        //
        // Copying Data from UART into a buffer
        //
        if((cChar == '\r') || (cChar == '\n'))
        {
            UART_writePolling(uartHandle, &cChar, 1);
            break;
        }
        else if(cChar == '\b')
        {
            //
            // Deleting last character when you hit backspace
            //
            char ch;

            UART_writePolling(uartHandle, &cChar, 1);
            ch = ' ';
            UART_writePolling(uartHandle, &ch, 1);
            if(iLen)
            {
                UART_writePolling(uartHandle, &cChar, 1);
                iLen--;
            }
            else
            {
                ch = '\a';
                UART_writePolling(uartHandle, &ch, 1);
            }
        }
        else
        {
            //
            // Echo the received character
            //
            UART_writePolling(uartHandle, &cChar, 1);

            *(pcBuffer + iLen) = cChar;
            iLen++;
        }

        UART_readPolling(uartHandle, &cChar, 1);
    }

    *(pcBuffer + iLen) = '\0';

    return(iLen);
}

Hi Alexis !
Thanks for the quick response.
Unfortunately this does not solve my problem.

I work with CC1352 and in its SDK there is an example of "portable_CC1352P_2_LAUNCHXL_tirtos_ccs"
where UART 0 is used to enter information from terminal but functions Display_init(), disp_printf(...) or Display_printf() do not work

My question was different: Is it possible to provide input from the terminal when using the Display_init(), disp_printf(...) or Display_printf() functions?

Is it possible in principle?

Best Regards

Haim

Thanks Alexis.
Is it possible to use in the same code the functions Displa_***() for data output and functions UART for data input?
If there is, please give me an example from SDK codes.

Best regards Haim.
