SoftwareSerial example not working as expected?

EDIT: I'm using a arduino Uno SMD version

Hi all,

If i use the sofwareserial example which comes with the arduino distribution (1.0.1 on windows 7, softwareserial version ?? ) the output is not as expected.

/*
  Software serial multple serial test
 
 Receives from the hardware serial, sends to software serial.
 Receives from software serial, sends to hardware serial.
 
 The circuit: 
 * RX is digital pin 2 (connect to TX of other device)
 * TX is digital pin 3 (connect to RX of other device)

#include <SoftwareSerial.h>

SoftwareSerial mySerial(2, 3); // RX, TX

void setup()  
{
 // Open serial communications and wait for port to open:
  Serial.begin(57600);
   while (!Serial) {
    ; // wait for serial port to connect. Needed for Leonardo only
  }

  
  Serial.println("Goodnight moon!");

  // set the data rate for the SoftwareSerial port
  mySerial.begin(4800);
  mySerial.println("Hello, world?");
}

void loop() // run over and over
{
  if (mySerial.available())
    Serial.write(mySerial.read());
  if (Serial.available())
    mySerial.write(Serial.read());
}

if i input 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 (seperated) i get this response:

þþÿÿÿÿþþþ

if i change

Serial.write(mySerial.read());

to

Serial.print(mySerial.read());

the output becomes:

ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ

which looks like a timing issue to me...

Anyone experience with this possible bug?

What 'other device' are you connecting to?

a GPRS modem on a breakoutboard from linksprite:

http://www.linksprite.com/product/showproduct.php?id=187&lang=en

if i change

Code:

Serial.write(mySerial.read());

to

Code:

Serial.write(mySerial.read());

I'm not sure I see the difference.

AWOL:
I'm not sure I see the difference.

Excuse me, typo. See my edit!

SoftwareSerial mySerial(2, 3); // RX, TX

The Leonardo does not seem to support pin change interrupts on those pins, hence software serial won't work on them.

In addition to that, I'm not certain that SoftwareSerial has been rewritten to take into account the mappings for the Leonardo. It may have been, it may not.

Forgot to mention, but i'm on a arduino Uno SMD.

Is your modem configured to repeat whatever it gets sent? If not, what would you expect it to reply when you send it '1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9'?
