Problems with Serial.begin

Projects Programming
1

Hi Everyone,

I am new to programing and Arduino. I'm having an issue with Serial.begin. My sketch compiles fine with the following.

Serial.begin(4800);

However I have a device that requires 8 bits, Even Parity, 1 Stop bit. So I made my code say:

Serial.begin(4800, SERIAL_8E1);

Now I get the error "serial_8E1 was not declared in this scope" What am I missing? Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you,

Serial.begin(4800, SERIAL_8E1);

"serial_8E1 was not declared in this scope"

Case is important.
So is the version of IDE.

What version of the Arduino IDE are you using?

I just compiled with 1.5.7 and there were no error messages.

void setup() {
  // put your setup code here, to run once:
  Serial.begin(4800, SERIAL_8E1);
}

void loop() {
  // put your main code here, to run repeatedly:

}

Thank for the replies. Well I checked my case and found it was wrong. It compiled fine now. I'm using version 1.0.5-r2.. I thought I had tried it all ways. I guess not. Thanks for the help. Greatly appreciated.
