[SOLVED] Serial data Transfer to buckets

How-To
1

Hello,
i’m trying to transfer the serial data recieved from any Serially connected device to the data buckets. I’m using the TinyGSM library along with thinger library.
So in order to test, I have written a code which basically takes the data recieved in the Serial port3 of my Arduino Mega, and transfers it as a string to the data buckets. But my problem is that always a weird number comes in the data bucket.

Is there something I’m doing wrong?

Help me plz.

The code is given below

#define TINY_GSM_MODEM_SIM900
#define _DEBUG_
#include <TinyGsmClient.h>
#include <ThingerTinyGSM.h>
#ifndef HAVE_HWSERIAL1
#include "SoftwareSerial.h"
#endif

#define USERNAME "MyUsername"
#define DEVICE_ID ""
#define DEVICE_CREDENTIAL ""
#define APN_NAME "MyAPN"
#define APN_USER ""
#define APN_PSWD ""
#define CARD_PIN ""
char console[128];
ThingerTinyGSM thing(USERNAME, DEVICE_ID, DEVICE_CREDENTIAL, Serial1);

void setup() {
   Serial.begin(19200);
  Serial3.begin(19200);
  Serial1.begin(19200); //The Sim900 is connected here

  pinMode(13, OUTPUT);
    
  thing["led"] << [](pson& in){
    digitalWrite(13, in ? HIGH:LOW);
  };
  
  thing["RxedBits"] >> [](pson &out){
    out=( string)( string(Serial3.read()));
    };
  
}

void loop() {
  thing.handle();
  while(Serial3.available())
    thing.write_bucket("RxedBits","RxedBits");
  delay(10000);

}

Hi @VarunNelakanti, I think that the read in your RxedBits just read a single character… So, did you tried to use readString()? Try to debug also the string read in the resource to be sure.

Best!

Hey @alvarolb Yeah, I just realised my mistake. Thank you so much. :smiley:
