Problems with data reception via USART2 on STM32F429ZI microcontroller

[Emanuele78]

I tried to follow exactly what was indicated in the following tutorial https://www.youtube.com/embed/JWOV4j5fCS4?cc_load_policy=1&autoplay=1&list=PL8n_tqwYdzVAd_OxaKnfxBrvcGwR8kSJo, but despite the serial port being connected, I am not receiving the data on the console that I send through the micro.

What could be the cause? In the attached screenshots, you can find the settings and the code from main.c.

Hello @Emanuele78 ,

This is because on NUCLEO-F429ZI USART2 is not connected to VCP (Virtual Comport).

You need to use USART3 then.
