Problem using sound board with arduino

Post by bc65925 »

I am using the FX Sound board connected to a Arduino MEGA2560 using the supplied "menucommands" code to attempt using the UART function. I have the UG pin grounded, and the TX and RX pins connected. At first I connected the TX and RX to 5 and 6 on the Arduino and only got command characters returned on the command window such as "⸮⸮]⸮L⸮". I moved the TX and RX to 9 and 10 after reading another post here however I'm still getting the same results.

Hello, have you checked the baud rates ? The '????' type of things appears most of the time due to baud rate mismatch.
