[Solved] Response time of the serial monitor

Projects Interfacing w/ Software on the Computer

Hi everybody,

i'm trying to understand how communication between arduino and the computer works.

I'm currently trying things with strings to see if it works ok but i'm having a problem.

I compile and upload my program, i open the serial monitor (with the good baud rate) and when i'm sending data, nothing happen.
I wait few seconds (like 10 or 20) and then suddenly it works.

What is wrong with the serial monitor initialization?
Does this happen to everyone?

Thanks for reading

No. We'd need to see your code to have a hope of replicating/explaining the issue.

It was just my computer actually that was very slow initiating serial communication.
Thanks for your reply
