BV4108 with Arduino UNO
November 01, 2012 06:48AM
I bought a BV4108 and a 16x2 LCD screen from your store and I tried to make it work on my arduino UNO.
I connected BV4108 tx pin to arduino tx pin and rx in arduino rx pin. +5v to +5v and ground to gnd.
When I power up the arduino the screen shows this:

I tried to insert this code:
Quote


#include <BVserial.h>
#include <ASI.h>
#include <bv4108.h>

#define rxPin 0
#define txPin 1
#define dev1 'a'

BV4108 bv(rxPin, txPin);

void setup() {
  bv.baud(9600);
  bv.begin();
}


void loop() {
char b[16];

  bv.cls(dev1); delay(200);

  while(1);
}


but the screen didn't change.

hello,
try phisically swapping the tx and rx round so pin 0 goes to tx on the BV4108 and pin 1 goes to rx on the BV4108

Has anyone managed to get this display working on an Arduino R3.
If so please explain the method as the web site is confusing
