FIX: Allow use of UART0 with enabled USB_CDC_CONSOLE

Open rPraml opened this issue 8 months ago • 5 comments

Description:

When tasmota is compiled with USE_USB_CDC_CONSOLE, the ´ClaimSerial` method will return immediately and will not release UART0

This makes sense, as long as USB is used for console, but if we fall back to serial, because no USB is connected, we must release the console, so that all 3 UARTs on the ESP32 can be used. (Possible broken since https://github.com/rPraml/Tasmota/commit/84ced0fcab6f3af26602cd8fc23df5ba7bcc8c1f)

In my case I tried to connect 3 SML meters to a ESP32 and I always had some garbage in the web console, when all 3 UARTs were used, as the serial data was read by the SML driver and the SerialConsole.
