The serial data format is 9600 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, with one stop bit (9600-8-N-1). Because the data is presented in a binary data format, the serial output is most accurate. How would you turn this into a integer value? Apologies, I'm quite new to arduino. Ah, Arduino, I remember when you were just crawling around and blinking LEDs. Now you're ready to learn how to speak! In this lesson we'll learn how to use the Serial Library to communicate from the Arduino board back to the computer over the USB port. Though this is written for the Arduino microcontroller module, the principles apply to any microcontroller. Digital input and output are the most fundamental physical connections for any microcontroller. The pins to which you connect the circuits shown here are called General Purpose Input-Output, or GPIO, pins. Even if a given project doesn.

Use Serial.print to Display Arduino output on your computer monitor: Part 1 In many cases while using an Arduino, you will want to see the data being generated by the Arduino. One common method of doing this is using the Serial.print function from the Serial library to display information to your computer’s monitor. This part of the Arduino programming course shows how to get data into an Arduino sketch from the serial port. Data can be sent to the Arduino from the Serial Monitor window in the Arduino IDE. A user can enter data in the input field in the serial monitor window to send values and data to the Arduino.

I've hooked up a ADH8066 (Sparkfun) GSM Module to my Arduino Uno, and am trying to get some correct serial going between the Arduino and the GSM module. It works fine when I connect to it directly (via USB or just the TTL lines) but not when being controlled via the Arduino. Some text will output correctly, the rest will be garbled, almost as if the baud rate is wrong, but I'm just using the same baud (115200) I do as when I connect from a PC.

Here is the Arduino code I'm using:

Below is what I'm seeing in the serial monitor:

SoftwareSerial is notoriously picky about timing and will cause problems like you describe when 'too much' is going on at the same time. It probably gets out of sync because of you are doing other stuff on the side.

I warmly recommend AltSoftSerial (http://www.pjrc.com/teensy/td_libs_AltSoftSerial.html), which performs much better, but I still suggest you use slightly lower baud rates to increase reliability. Too high baud rates will require very exact timing to not miss a single bit and the hardware is not powerful enough to do serial traffic in software without problems.

Arduino Output To Serial Monitor

Make sure the 'baud' setting matches your sketch.

Arduino Write To Serial Monitor

Ex: Serial.begin(115200); >>>> 115200 baud in the console.

I got this solution out of a comment above from kunalbhat. But I wanted to post it as a stand-alone answer because it solved my problem, and it would have never occurred to me. So I think it will help a lot of other people.

As was said before, the issue is with the 'baud' setting (which has to do with serial communication- another answer). This can be found (typically) at the top of your sketch, and might look like this:

Or this:

In the case of an Arduino Uno, a 'baud' setting other than 9600 will result in garbled text. As such, make sure that at the beginning of your sketch, you have the line:

Feel free to ask if you need any further help.

The reason is that, you need to set the command AT+UART_DEF=9600,8,1,0,0 to reset the baud of ESP to 9600, or you can also use AT+CIOBAUD=9600!
Try it, it's working for me!
I have tried AT+IPR on some ESP-01 and ESP-12 modules, some times it's working and sometimes no(and in really bad case, the baud change completely)!

I was using the Arduino to program a ATtiny84 but was getting garbled output or serial was stopping after the 1st line until I reset the Arduino.

Arduino Serial Port

The issue was the Arduino had the 'Arduino as ISP' sketch loaded which was interfering with the serial data coming in from the ATtiny84.

Uploading a blank sketch to Arduino fixed it.
