Corrupted serial debug output
-
Hi,
I'm building my first MySensors serial gateway on pro mini (ATmega328 3.3V) controller. As a serial adapter I've got PL2303HX adapter connected to arduino.
My test scetches are successfully apploaded to arduino and I also tested serial output via serial monitor of arduino IDE.
But when I get NRF24L01+ connected and serial scetch uploaded to the board I've got some corrupted/binary output to my serial monitor. It looks like screenshot I've attached.

Could somebody direct me to the ways I can debug the issus?

Welcome to the forum @Max-Kurilov
Could you try to re-upload the screen shot? Seems like the forum messed it up.

@Max-Kurilov If using 3.3V hen max serial speed is 38400 - Try setting that in your serial monitor, it should do the trick (unless you set serial speed differently in your sketch, but we don't know as you didn't post your sketch).

@skywatch, 3.3V at 16MHz is somewhat out of specs, but it works at 115200bps using the hardware uart.

@skywatch that helped! resolved, thank you!
