UART Backend logging not readable

Hi,

I am having issues, getting the uart backend logging working on a nrf52840 dongle. I'm testing the logging on the standard blinky example that came with the sdk (15.2.) I'm trying to read the logging with putty through a USB -serial converter which I know is working correctly. I've just simply connected the ground and the tx pin (defined in the sdk_config file as pin 31) from the dongle to the ground and rx pin on the converter. With putty I can see that some data is transferring but it is completely incomprehensible (see below).

▒=▒▒y!##5957▒▒Xi▒
▒=▒▒Y5#7▒;!#▒=5▒9/=#15▒▒▒Xi▒
▒=▒▒Y5#7▒;!#▒=5▒9/=#15▒▒▒Xi▒
▒=▒▒Y5#7▒;!#▒=5▒9/=#15▒▒▒Xi▒
▒=▒▒Y5#7▒;!#▒=5▒9/=#15▒▒▒Xi▒
▒=▒▒Y5#7▒;!#▒=5▒9/=#15▒▒▒Xi▒
▒=▒▒Y5#7▒;!#▒=5▒9/=#15▒▒▒Xi▒
▒=▒▒[595-57▒guw▒ac▒▒▒Xi▒
▒=▒▒[595-57▒guw▒ass▒▒▒

There should be a connection and a few button presses and a couple of ble messages in that gibberish. And pretty much everything is completely standard, I haven't touched any code in the blinky example or the configuration files. This should be absolutely probably the most basic thing to do so I'm pretty amazed that this won't work.

Any advice? 

Thank you.
