use of multiple Protocol UART-Ports via script possible (at different times) ?

[Rolf_K]

I want to automate Measurements via AD2-WaveForms Script.
Therefore I need to configure at the start of the testsequence a Powersupply via Protocol-UART Interface (e.g. DIO0=Tx,DIO1=Rx).
(While the testsequence continues there are some AD2-measurements via the scope.)
At the end of the testsequence the script had to check some funcionality on the Equipment under test via another Protocol UART-Port
(e.g. DIO2=Tx,DIO3=Rx).
Is that possible ?
If yes, please can you give the scipt command to configure the DIO Pins to Rx (and Tx)?
The script command:
Protocol.UART.TX.preset.2
leads to ... Error in: "UART_example" line: 20    SyntaxError: Parse error  ...

Is there a more intensive script reference available as the online help?

Hi @Rolf_K

See the following:

clear() // clear Output log
Protocol.UART.TX.value = 0 // DIO 0
Protocol.UART.RX.value = 1 // DIO 1
Protocol.config() // apply configuration changes now
Protocol.UART.Receiver() // start receiver
wait()
Protocol.UART.Send("hello") // TX
wait(0.1) // 100ms wait for RX, depends on the external device and rate
print(Protocol.UART.Receive()) // RX

/// ...
Protocol.UART.TX.value = 2
Protocol.UART.RX.value = 3
Protocol.config()
Protocol.UART.Receiver()
wait()
Protocol.UART.Send("ola")
wait(0.1) 
print(Protocol.UART.Receive())

fantastic ! Both: the Tool and the support ! Thanks a lot.
Further Question:
Is it possible to read the Temperature of the AD2 via script:
I did a lot of search and tries via code completion but couldn't find it.

Hi @Rolf_K

Supplies.run()
while(wait(1)){ // 1 sec
    print(Supplies.Input.USBMonitor.Temperature.value)
}
