Hello All,
I have connected my Geiger Counter to my laptop and the output via the serial monitor is just coming out as gibberish. Can someone please help me! I have followed all the steps given on the website.
For some reason, I am not able to upload the screenshot. Let me know what I can do!
Output from Geiger Counter
Re: Output from Geiger Counter
What USB serial converter are you using?
Is this an assembled kit? Check all of your solder joints. If you reprogrammed the AVR, check the configuration fuses.
Try installing fresh batteries.
I got your screenshot - the BREAK flag being sent is a bad sign. Try closing and opening the port again. Make sure you have the correct port selected.

Re: Output from Geiger Counter
Hi,
Is there a way to get only the numeric values into Arduino, then show them on the serial monitor?

Re: Output from Geiger Counter
Yes, this should be possible. You'd have to connect the serial output to the Arduino, and then write a sketch to parse the data and strip out the CPM, then print that to the serial monitor. It might be easier to do on the MEGA since it has more than one serial port.
