We haven't solved your problem yet.

I contacted a local Intel company but did not receive an accurate response.

Please let me know if you can solve it.

We are just buying uart-gpio and using it.

    Upon a second look at your code I noticed that you're using LoanIO 62. From some of the other research I have done on this subject I believe that you have to use LoanIO 50 as the TX. I could be completely wrong but it might be something that would be worth a shot. The UART-GPIO may be the way to go for me as well if I can't get mine to work either so let me know how that goes.
