I have posted the code I am using for this project in the programming section. I am transmitting data between two Arduino's using an infrared transmitter and receiver. The issue is that the text string that I am sending is being received as a jumbled mess of characters. Any ideas as to what might be causing this? I'm beginning to suspect some sort of hardware issue. Just an idea of the wiring, on the transmitter I have the infrared LED cathode and the indicator LED cathode wired to digital pin 10. The ground is connected to digital pin 1 for TX communication ability. The receiver utilizes a three pin infrared receiver. The ground and v pins of the infrared receiver are wired to ground and +5v respectively. The signal leg of the receiver is wired to RX.
