Axon II USB Communication

[olegyef]

Hello, so i recently got an Axon II and started messing around with it. I'm trying to communicate with Tera Term over the usb, that comes out of the axon. I tried different things for hours and thought id finally ask some one. I know there are built in libraries to make this stuff easier but i wanted to get it working on my own. All i'm getting out of Tera Term is junk. I'm assuming that the rates are some how off but i have no idea how to fix it. Thanks, Oleg.

Look into webbotlib for your Axon 

Also check out the Axon Tutorial on SoR

[Admin]

Junk from UART means either mis-matched baud, or on rare chance a *lot* of electrical noise interfering with the UART. On quick glance your code looks fine.

I strongly recommend using WebbotLib . . . but if not, it's still open source and having a look through it could help you pinpoint your mistake in your code.

Thanks i think i solved it. The issue was with "#define MYUBRR (FOSC/16/BAUD-1)" at 115.2k it would give me a UBRR of 7 instead of 8. So i just removed the -1 and and it works.
