Hey Andrej,

Yes you can connect RX a TX pins on board with RX a TX pins on the control board.

Refer to the below MathWorks documentation to understand the process.

Hey Andrej,

Yes you can connect the RX and TX pins on a control board. You have to make the cross connections here , i.e.

• Connect the RX pin of the WiFi module to the TX pin of the Arduino.
• Connect the TX pin of the WiFi module to the RX pin of the Arduino.

This is because the RX pin is meant to receive data, and the TX pin is meant to transmit data. By crossing them, you ensure that the data sent from the module is received by the Arduino and vice versa.

Hope it helps!
