Serial Port bad characters

Hey all!! I am trying to connect my 'HuskyLens' to arduino UNO board but I am getting bad characters on serial port dipsplay. The baud is also set to 9600 as told in this document


#include "HUSKYLENS.h"
#include "SoftwareSerial.h"

HUSKYLENS huskylens;
SoftwareSerial mySerial(10, 11); // RX, TX
//HUSKYLENS green line >> Pin 10; blue line >> Pin 11
void printResult(HUSKYLENSResult result);

void setup() {
    Serial.begin(115200);
    mySerial.begin(9600);
    while (!huskylens.begin(mySerial))
    {
        Serial.println(F("Begin failed!"));
        Serial.println(F("1.Please recheck the \"Protocol Type\" in HUSKYLENS (General Settings>>Protocol Type>>Serial 9600)"));
        Serial.println(F("2.Please recheck the connection."));
        delay(100);
    }
}

void loop() {
    if (!huskylens.request()) Serial.println(F("Fail to request data from HUSKYLENS, recheck the connection!"));
    else if(!huskylens.isLearned()) Serial.println(F("Nothing learned, press learn button on HUSKYLENS to learn one!"));
    else if(!huskylens.available()) Serial.println(F("No block or arrow appears on the screen!"));
    else
    {
        Serial.println(F("###########"));
        while (huskylens.available())
        {
            HUSKYLENSResult result = huskylens.read();
            printResult(result);
        }    
    }
}

void printResult(HUSKYLENSResult result){
    if (result.command == COMMAND_RETURN_BLOCK){
        Serial.println(String()+F("Block:xCenter=")+result.xCenter+F(",yCenter=")+result.yCenter+F(",width=")+result.width+F(",height=")+result.height+F(",ID=")+result.ID);
    }
    else if (result.command == COMMAND_RETURN_ARROW){
        Serial.println(String()+F("Arrow:xOrigin=")+result.xOrigin+F(",yOrigin=")+result.yOrigin+F(",xTarget=")+result.xTarget+F(",yTarget=")+result.yTarget+F(",ID=")+result.ID);
    }
    else{
        Serial.println("Object unknown!");
    }
}

You will need to set the baud rate to match what is in your code

Hi, @appachandra
Welcome to the forum.

Have you got the IDE monitor set to 115200 baud?

Tom.. :grinning: :+1: :coffee: :australia:
