rew is correct, but for a good picture check out https://www.abelectronics.co.uk/kb/article/1035/raspberry-pi-3-serial-port-usage . The reason for the changes are related to bluetooth as described at pi 3 - How do I make serial work on the Raspberry Pi3 - Raspberry Pi Stack Exchange . To use the serial port, programming is not needed. Just install minicom talked about here. In just under 20 minutes you can be using the GPIO pins, save for reading and stuff. Clem

Hi Clem, Most of the 'net appears to have only part of the picture, we tried to summarize all the findings here (and really it should be in a blog rather than buried in a discussion but I'm still not convinced I have all detail, but this is a start) where different options are presented: https://www.element14.com/community/message/195438/l/re-raspberry-pi-3-und-enocean-pi-kompatibilit%C3%A4tsproblem#195438 Long story short, an option has to be picked and used in order to make sensible use of the serial port. I pick Option 1 from the list generally during software development for the pi, but option 1 won't suit everyone.

I found out last Friday that the mini-uart doesn't support parity. If you enable parity it is silently ignored. This resulted in a bunch of wasted hours figuring that out....

Hi Roger, I see.. interesting discovery. That's very useful to know. I'll add this to the discussion thread mentioned above too, so that we know this when deciding which option to take.
