Hi all,
Okay, I know this is something stupid on my end!
I want to wire a xbee module. This is my setup
#1. XBEE mounted on XBEE Explorer Regulated (http://www.sparkfun.com/products/9132)
#2. RS232 shifter (http://www.sparkfun.com/products/8780)
DOUT --> TX
DIN --> RX
Shared GND. They both tap into the same ground
3.3v --> VCC on explorer board
3.3v --> VCC shifter
When I receive data via wireless, I do see the "RX" Blue LED light up on xbee side, and see the "TX" led light up on the shifter side
When I put a analyzer on the shifter, I get junk!
When I connect a DB9 to the shifter and attach to computer, nada.
Thoughts?
