Does this board only works when connected to another xiao board? I tried with a device that uses rs485 and it did not work. I set it to input and connected AB pins to the AB pins on the device. I did not use the GROUND pin only AB pins. I am using a XIAO C6 and programmed the serial to use pins D4, D5

Sorry we cannot provide the schematic file of this product currently.

This product cannot work independently without a XIAO connected to it. It's right to use D4 and D5 pins, so please share with us your hardware connection photo and code then we can continue to help you with it.

I do have a xiao c6 connected. My problem was that I initially confgured D4 as RX. Once I corrected that and configured D5 as RX everything worked. Thank you.

can we power the xiao C6 connected to the board using the 12V input (do not use the C6 USBC) ? My RS485 device has a GND/12V output pins and I wanted to use those to power the whole board including XIAO C6 without having to use an additional USBC power.
