hi folks,
i was trying to send data from an arduino to another using xbee modules. But what i observe on the receiver end is that i continuously keep getting '1's from the previous code which was burnt into the sender mote. Flushing does not help and the 1s just don't stop coming in from the serial COM port. What do i do? Please help.
Thanks in advance.

You change line 213 to read .....

Now read the how to use this foroum sticky and modify the post so it includes the proper code tags.
Anyway ths is Java code you said you had two arduino's talking?
yes it had the two Arduinos talking. and the code i pasted is of the receiver where i am printing the received values. Sorry... will modify the post.
Thanks for making the change.
However this is only a bit of the code and from what I can see it is not arduino code.
If it is arduino code then wee need it all so we can compile it.
It looks however like it is code outside my pay grade.
Hello thanks for replying. All i was doing was to follow the tutorial given here: Arduino Playground - Java
Well that tutorial is nothing to do with programming Arduinos so I am confused about what you are trying to do.
