Arduino Serial Output Buffer Size
Active2 years, 4 months ago
Mar 19, 2015 This part of the Arduino programming course shows how to get data into an Arduino sketch from the serial port. Data can be sent to the Arduino from the Serial Monitor window in the Arduino IDE. A user can enter data in the input field in the serial monitor window to send values and data to the Arduino. The Arduino IDE has a feature that can be a great help in debugging sketches or controlling Arduino from your computer's keyboard. The Serial Monitor is a separate pop-up window that acts as a separate terminal that communicates by receiving and sending Serial Data. See the icon on the far right of. I want to interface Arduino Uno and ESP8266 for IoT project where i have to control the device from webpage,but before that i wanted to check the above code for Arduino to ESP8266 by Serial Communication.So interfaced Arduino Uno with ESP8266 and powered ESP8266 with External adapter with 3.3V, ESP8266 baud rate is 115200 and in the code i.

I've hooked up a ADH8066 (Sparkfun) GSM Module to my Arduino Uno, and am trying to get some correct serial going between the Arduino and the GSM module. It works fine when I connect to it directly (via USB or just the TTL lines) but not when being controlled via the Arduino. Some text will output correctly, the rest will be garbled, almost as if the baud rate is wrong, but I'm just using the same baud (115200) I do as when I connect from a PC.
Here is the Arduino code I'm using:
Below is what I'm seeing in the serial monitor:

SoftwareSerial is notoriously picky about timing and will cause problems like you describe when 'too much' is going on at the same time. It probably gets out of sync because of you are doing other stuff on the side.

I warmly recommend AltSoftSerial (http://www.pjrc.com/teensy/td_libs_AltSoftSerial.html), which performs much better, but I still suggest you use slightly lower baud rates to increase reliability. Too high baud rates will require very exact timing to not miss a single bit and the hardware is not powerful enough to do serial traffic in software without problems.

Make sure the 'baud' setting matches your sketch.

I got this solution out of a comment above from kunalbhat. But I wanted to post it as a stand-alone answer because it solved my problem, and it would have never occurred to me. So I think it will help a lot of other people.

As was said before, the issue is with the 'baud' setting (which has to do with serial communication- another answer). This can be found (typically) at the top of your sketch, and might look like this:
Or this:
In the case of an Arduino Uno, a 'baud' setting other than 9600 will result in garbled text. As such, make sure that at the beginning of your sketch, you have the line:
Feel free to ask if you need any further help.

The reason is that, you need to set the command AT+UART_DEF=9600,8,1,0,0 to reset the baud of ESP to 9600, or you can also use AT+CIOBAUD=9600!
Try it, it's working for me!
I have tried AT+IPR on some ESP-01 and ESP-12 modules, some times it's working and sometimes no(and in really bad case, the baud change completely)!

I was using the Arduino to program a ATtiny84 but was getting garbled output or serial was stopping after the 1st line until I reset the Arduino.
The issue was the Arduino had the 'Arduino as ISP' sketch loaded which was interfering with the serial data coming in from the ATtiny84.
Uploading a blank sketch to Arduino fixed it.

i had to go back to hardware serial on my mega to get it to work. never had good luck with sw serial

$begingroup$How can I save data retrieved from a sensor to a text file on the computer?

$begingroup$you can write the sensor data to the serial port using serial-lib and write a small processing program that reads the data from the serial port and writes it to a file.
in the arduino code initalize the serial lib in the setup method
and write your sensor values to the serial interface using
in your loop method
on the processing side use a PrintWriter to write the data read from the serial port to a file

$endgroup$$begingroup$Yet another option is to use an SD Card reader / writer, and write your file to a SD card. When you're done collecting data, swap out SD cards with your workstation computer. This approach will allow you to run your project disconnected from a computer, and will provide for non-volatile storage of large amounts of data.

$endgroup$$begingroup$The program gobetwino will log sensor values from an Arduino to a text file or spreadsheet with minimal effort. It can also automate things on the computer, add timestamps (so you don't need to program them into the arduino), etc.

$endgroup$$begingroup$The simplest method is to use the Serial library and output to that. You can then capture the output to a text file using a terminal program. Hyperterminal is available on Windows, Teraterm on Linux and Z Term on OS X.

$endgroup$$begingroup$If you want to write sensor data directly to a file on your computer without having to copy and paste the output form the serial monitor window, then try reading the data stream directly from the serial port (which is what the serial monitor does anyway, I suspect). On mac/linux do something like:
God knows what's the equivalent on windows machines.

$endgroup$$begingroup$You can create a python script to read the serial port and write the results into a text file:

$endgroup$$begingroup$I found easier and safer to use a Python script. I usually use this one based on the serial library. It's very common to use also the datetime module to add the timestamps:

$endgroup$$begingroup$The next step is to use either the ethernet shield or something like a WIZ810MJ board and internet enable your arduino. You can then write data to that and send it to say a web server to collate it. I do this in my vivarium temperature monitor.
