PN532 NFC RFID module V3 kits : Didn't find PN53x board

[SebDominguez]

Hello

I'm trying to make my PN532 NFC RFID module V3 kits working with my Arduino Uno.

According to this manual to communicate with the Arduino in I2C mode I need to set the DIP switch like this :

Channel 1: ON
Channel 2: OFF

Here is the wiring:

I'v tried with this lib and the Adafruit one

There is my code (it's the iso14443a_uid sketch)

#if 0
  #include <SPI.h>
  #include <PN532_SPI.h>
  #include "PN532.h"

  PN532_SPI pn532spi(SPI, 10);
  PN532 nfc(pn532spi);
#elif 0
  #include <PN532_HSU.h>
  #include <PN532.h>
      
  PN532_HSU pn532hsu(Serial1);
  PN532 nfc(pn532hsu);
#else 
  #include <Wire.h>
  #include <PN532_I2C.h>
  #include <PN532.h>
  #include <NfcAdapter.h>
  
  PN532_I2C pn532i2c(Wire);
  PN532 nfc(pn532i2c);
#endif
  
void setup(void) {
  Serial.begin(115200);
  Serial.println("Hello!");

  nfc.begin();

  uint32_t versiondata = nfc.getFirmwareVersion();
  if (! versiondata) {
    Serial.print("Didn't find PN53x board");
    while (1); // halt
  }
  
  // Got ok data, print it out!
  Serial.print("Found chip PN5"); Serial.println((versiondata>>24) & 0xFF, HEX); 
  Serial.print("Firmware ver. "); Serial.print((versiondata>>16) & 0xFF, DEC); 
  Serial.print('.'); Serial.println((versiondata>>8) & 0xFF, DEC);
  
  // Set the max number of retry attempts to read from a card
  // This prevents us from waiting forever for a card, which is
  // the default behaviour of the PN532.
  nfc.setPassiveActivationRetries(0xFF);
  
  // configure board to read RFID tags
  nfc.SAMConfig();
    
  Serial.println("Waiting for an ISO14443A card");
}

void loop(void) {
  boolean success;
  uint8_t uid[] = { 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 };  // Buffer to store the returned UID
  uint8_t uidLength;                        // Length of the UID (4 or 7 bytes depending on ISO14443A card type)
  
  // Wait for an ISO14443A type cards (Mifare, etc.).  When one is found
  // 'uid' will be populated with the UID, and uidLength will indicate
  // if the uid is 4 bytes (Mifare Classic) or 7 bytes (Mifare Ultralight)
  success = nfc.readPassiveTargetID(PN532_MIFARE_ISO14443A, &uid[0], &uidLength);
  
  if (success) {
    Serial.println("Found a card!");
    Serial.print("UID Length: ");Serial.print(uidLength, DEC);Serial.println(" bytes");
    Serial.print("UID Value: ");
    for (uint8_t i=0; i < uidLength; i++) 
    {
      Serial.print(" 0x");Serial.print(uid[i], HEX); 
    }
    Serial.println("");
    // Wait 1 second before continuing
    delay(1000);
  }
  else
  {
    // PN532 probably timed out waiting for a card
    Serial.println("Timed out waiting for a card"
[/code]);
  }
}

This is my output

Hello!

Thanks for help

In your sketch, remove everything above, and including #else and also the line #endif. You only need the I2C declarations in your case.

Good luck!

Hi!

I have the same problem. Did you resolve it?

Thanks!
