Morse code not printing

Projects Programming
1

I'm using the library EasyMorse and I can get the Morse code to print out in lines and dashes but i cant get the command morse.getChar() to work it doesn't give an error message but it just doesn't work

This is the bit not working:

'''
if(timer.read() >= 200){
Serial.print(morse.getChar());
morse.clear();
}
'''

morse.getChar() could return zero ('\0').
Then the morse.clear() erases anything that was in the buffer.

Edit: It appears the morse.getChar() function returns zero if nothing in the buffer. Just keep checking until not zero. Don't morse.clear() unless in setup().

Did you Serial.begin(115200);?

yes, i used Serial.begin(9600);

I would try this:

if(timer.read() >= 200){
   char ch = morse.getChar();
   if(ch !=0) {
      Serial.print(ch);
   }
}

i just looked back on my code and it turns out that in a previous if statement instead of == for a bool i just put =. lol

This is why you agreed to post your code, drawing and description of operation, to gain access to the forum... lol.
