Hi.

I need to transfer data from a uno32 board to a PC. But If I use the standard usb/com interface , the board resets when i plug the cable and I don't want this. Any ideas ?

Kind Regards.

You can mod your board to disconnect the FTDI from the reset line. Its just a matter of removing a resistor and cap from the DTR and RTS lines of the FTDI. You can do this on the Uno32 by cutting the JP1 trace or on the Max32 by cutting the JP5 trace. This will prevent you from programming the board from MPIDE unless you install a jumper where you cut the trace on your board.
