halfduplex()

Serial1.halfduplex, halfduplex

Puts Serial1 into half-duplex mode. In this mode both the transmit and receive are on the TX pin. This mode can be used for a single wire bus communications scheme between microcontrollers.

// SYNTAX
Serial1.halfduplex(true);  // Enable half-duplex mode
Serial1.halfduplex(false); // Disable half-duplex mode

// EXAMPLE
// Initializes Serial1 at 9600 baud and enables half duplex mode

Serial1.begin(9600);
Serial1.halfduplex(true);

halfduplex() takes one argument: true enables half-duplex mode, false disables half-duplex mode

halfduplex() returns nothing
