usb - Arduino Serial Monitor shows strange ASCII characters -


i connected arduimu v3+ via ftdi-cable mac (os x 10.10) (latest vc ftdi driver installed , loaded).

inside arduino-software serial monitor (monitoring /dev/cu.usbserial-aj038nz3) shows lot of weird ascii characters. reason problem?

enter image description here

instead of using arduino serial monitor, use os x's ability determine baud rate automatically. whenever, use ftdi cable, monitor input using screen command.

in case can grep name of device:

ls /dev | grep tty\.[uu]sb | awk '{print "/dev/"$1}' | xargs screen

check out man screen bit more background.

or use simple version finding name of port in /dev folder using

screen <name_of_ftdi>
