### Using a logic analyzer
|
||||
|
||||
A logic analyzer is an electronic instrument that captures and displays multiple signals from a digital system or digital circuit.
|
||||
|
||||
To find the UART pins we will connect the pins to a logic analyzer and look for data being transmitted.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
#### Hardware setup
|
||||
|
||||
Make sure any system you're testing is **powered off** when you connect the logic analyzer's probes to it **to avoid short-circuiting**.
|
||||
|
||||
* Connect the suspected TX pin to any channel of the logic analyzer.
|
||||
* Connect one of your logic analyzer's GND pins to the PCB that you're testing GND pins so they **share a common ground**.

||||

If you want to modify the speed and the duration:

||||
|
||||
* As a rule, you should sample digital signals **at least four times faster than their bandwidth**.
|
||||
* With serial communications, which are generally very slow, a **50 kS/s** sampling rate is more than enough, although sampling faster than this does no harm.
|
||||
* As for the duration, **20 seconds** is enough time for the device to power on and start transmitting data.

Now try with the popular baud rates with both the suspected pins and try to compare the results. If you find any readable text with one of the pins and the text makes some sense then that’s the TX pin.

### WARNING
|
||||
|
||||
It's not a big deal if you confuse the UART RX and TX ports with each other, because you can easily swap the wires connecting to them without any consequences. But confusing the VCC with the GND and connecting wires to them incorrectly **might fry the circuit**.

It’s an emulation of serial port over BLE. The UUID of the Nordic UART Service is `6E400001-B5A3-F393-E0A9-E50E24DCCA9E`. This service exposes two characteristics: one for transmitting and one for receiving.
|
||||
|
||||
* **RX Characteristic (UUID: 6E400002-B5A3-F393-E0A9-E50E24DCCA9E)** :
|
||||
* The peer can send data to the device by writing to the RX Characteristic of the service. ATT Write Request or ATT Write Command can be used. The received data is sent on the UART interface.

* If the peer has enabled notifications for the TX Characteristic, the application can send data to the peer as notifications. The application will transmit all data received over UART as notifications.
