Module configuration options

Configure Options

• name: GENERIC_UART_PORT value: UART4
  Description: select which uart it is connected to
• name: GENERIC_UART_BAUD value: B9600
  Description: set the baudrate of the uart

Define Options

• name: GENERIC_UART_ENDCHAR value: >
  Description: ending character for receiving
• name: GENERIC_UART_MAX_SENDLEN value: 64
  Description: length to start sending without waiting for the endchar (should be smaller than the buffer size)
• name: GENERIC_UART_MAX_BUFSIZE value: 128
  Description: maxmimum buffer size
