Hello all,

The serial monitor works fine.

I have a processing error on import:  
// import the serial library  
import processing.serial.\*;

error Can't find the processing.serial.\* files  
Where I can find those files?

Kind regards Johan

A little bit further ....  
Loaded 2nd part of the Project script in the Processing app.  
Then changed the path of the logo to a working/active adress.  
2nd part of the script works fine in the Processing app.  
The Arduino logo is displayed in the app.

So now the 1st Arduino Serial Monitor,  
and the 2nd part Processing app of the script are working seperately.

But they don,t work together yet.  
Look like something with a COM port conflict.  
Arduino Uno connected by USB and Processing COM port seems to work not together. The Processing app don't respond.

No idea what you are talking about. Post all your code, in code tags, if you have errors post those as well in code tags. Take a picture of your hand drawn wiring diagram.

Now the serial monitor output also in code tags. Now all you need is a couple of well formed English (other languages have their own sub-forum) sentences telling us first what was expected, then what actually happened.

Thanks for so far.  
Solved the issue was a COM port mismatch  
Both set to COM3 and it works.
