https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/67467/use-uart-in-thread-cli-exampleHello, Is any option in thread_cli_ftd_uart example to disable CLI module and use UART for my own purposes ?? I comment thread_cli_init() function add defines to sdk_config.h add include paths in project settings, add files: nrf_drv_uart.c, nrfx_uarten-USTelligent Community 13Wed, 21 Oct 2020 12:18:54 GMThttps://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/276179?ContentTypeID=1Wed, 21 Oct 2020 12:18:54 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:41999a3a-8f81-4636-a8d1-da1621e9e37aEdvin<p>Hello Mark,</p> <p>The UART is used int the openthread library. If you want to use it for your own purpose you need to rebuild the openthread library without the UART.&nbsp;</p> <p>Check out the section &quot;<a href="https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/sdk_tz_v4.1.0/thread_ot_libraries_building.html">Building the latest OpenThread libraries</a>&quot; on infocenter. You should use the same release tag that was used to build the openthread libraries in the SDK if you want to be sure that it is compatible with the SDK examples. The release tag is listed in the file:</p> <p>SDK\external\openthread\project\readme.txt.&nbsp;</p> <p></p> <p>Alternatively, you can use the other UART instance on the nRF52840, UART1.&nbsp;</p> <p></p> <p>BR,</p> <p>Edvin</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
