5.11 Wi-Fi Serial

This example demonstrates how to emulate serial ports between two devices. It reads input data from the serial interface and sends it via a Wi-Fi connection and the terminal window will display the messages which you typed or received. It can be useful for chatting or controlling a remote device. It is based on the hardware listed below, and the user needs to prepare two pairs of SAM D21 and ATWINC15x0 boards.

Note: This example application is not available in ASF for ATWINC3400.
It is based on the following hardware:
  • The SAM D21 Xplained Pro
  • The ATWINC15x0 on the EXT1 header
