Problems with USART transmission using DMA

VVlas.1
Associate II

The problem is as follows, when transferring data via USART, without using DMA, the data is sent (in an attachment). When I start using DMA transfer, no data is sent (in an attachment). Maybe I am doing wrong DMA settings in the USART configurator? I sort of did everything according to the instructions, in the created project I just added an array that needs to be passed and the HAL_UART_Transmit_DMA function. I tried to change channels, but everything is the same. Any idea what I'm doing wrong. I am hope for your help. I am using stm32h743zi-Nucleo.

Dear @VVlas.1​ 

Does the topic you mentioned solve your case ?

If not, could you share your msp.c file ?

Thanks

Yes, the article helped me a lot in solving my problem. The USART transmission is working. Thank you for your attention!
