Hello,

Is it possible to have the MOD-GSM and MOD-RS232 UEXT boards running at the same time on an A10S board please?

no, you can't attach two UART devices to UEXT at same time

Thanks for the reply, would it be possible to do if I wired the UART3 pins on the GPIO-1 header into the MOD-GSM and used the UEXT header for the MOD-RS232?

Hey Kev,

That would work (of course if you connect the rest of the lines too - GND and PWR, for instance). There are four UARTs -  from UART0 to UART3; now, generally, depends whether these UARTs are implemented in the Linux but it should work.

Thanks, now I know it might be possible I'll have a play :)
