Hi Guys,
I am having a problem trying to receive serial data from B4R to my VB.Net program.
I either get nothing or something like 'Recieved???' or 0's.
But when I use the normal Arduino IDE and use:
Serial.println("Test');
It works 100% in my .Net program. In my .Net code I basically just do a Port.ReadLine call, which works for normal Serial.println. But even if I try Port.Read or Port.ReadByte for B4R I still get rubbish.
I use the following simple code in B4R:
What am I doing wrong here?

Serial1.Initialize(9600)
SerialStream.Initialize(Serial1.Stream, "SerialStream_DataReceived", "SerialStream_Error")
Timer1.Initialize("Timer1_Tick", 1000)
Timer1.Enabled = True
End Sub
Sub Timer1_Tick
SerialStream.Write(Array As Byte("Test"))
End Sub
Sub SerialStream_DataReceived (Buffer() As Byte)
Log("Received: ", Buffer)
End Sub
Sub SerialStream_Error
Log("error")
End SubWhat am I doing wrong here?
Your code looks great too, I can learn something from it, and no I did not see it. In my case the bugger was not so much sending the data form the .Net program but rather receiving it! Strange that the one SerialStream.Write method works and the other not?? Well anyway, hopefully my code, as yours, can help someone else. Happy coding!!!
