Bus Pirate Support / Beginner help - attach RFID loader
I try to attach a RFID reader to the buspirate. As I'm a noob I need some help.
I updated the Bus Pirate to bootloader v4.1, fw also v4.1. Selftest works fine (after resoldering some led's).
I bought the RFID reader from seeedstudio (http://www.seeedstudio.com/depot/1356mh ... l?cPath=40). The RFID reader contains those pins:
PIN 1 ---- RESET
PIN 2 ---- RXD
PIN 3 ---- TXD
PIN 4 ---- GND
PIN 5 ---- +5V (DC)
Datasheet: http://www.seeedstudio.com/depot/datash ... -Spec..pdf
I wired the buspirate like that:
PIN 1 ---- RESET ---> AUX
PIN 2 ---- RXD ---> MOSI (TX)
PIN 3 ---- TXD ---> MISO (RX)
PIN 4 ---- GND ---> GND
PIN 5 ---- +5V (DC) --->+5V
I activate the UART Mode, then I enter
W to active the +5V
a to trigger the reset (AUX LOW)
thats it, I dont receieve anything from the device.. any hints about this setup?
cheers
