Putty Displaying this weird character ▒▒0▒▒▒▒▒▒3^▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒d▒▒▒▒▒ . How to solve it ??

[ox00]

I already follow the link for terminal in this link  https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/index.jsp?topic=%2Fsdk_nrf5_v16.0.0%2Flib_cli.html&cp=6_1_3_10_3&anchor=lib_cli_terminal_settings .

From android apps sent message to mcu the message is not display in putty. While when sending from mcu  to android apps it display this weird character.

Does it work at all? I'd check that your Speed is set right (and data and stop bits).

everthing is right. Dont know what is wrong.Maybe I will uninstall putty and reinstall back.

#define HCI_UART_BAUDRATE 30801920   in sdk_config.h 

in putty is 115200. Do I need to change the speed in sdk_config.h ?

 In the sdk_config.h, 30801920 means 115200 baud.

The setting should be fine on the both sides.  

Could you share the sdk_config.h?

I already upload it to gist at github. Here the link https://gist.github.com/zawawimanja/0df14f7bcf295656a04f5fc58959233b

Hi, 

If you want to use the terminal tool to see the log, please add the following setting in the sdk_config.h

// <e> NRF_LOG_BACKEND_UART_ENABLED - nrf_log_backend_uart - Log UART backend
//==========================================================
#ifndef NRF_LOG_BACKEND_UART_ENABLED
#define NRF_LOG_BACKEND_UART_ENABLED 1
#endif
// <o> NRF_LOG_BACKEND_UART_TX_PIN - UART TX pin 
#ifndef NRF_LOG_BACKEND_UART_TX_PIN
#define NRF_LOG_BACKEND_UART_TX_PIN 6

// <o> NRF_LOG_BACKEND_UART_TEMP_BUFFER_SIZE - Size of buffer for partially processed strings. 
// <i> Size of the buffer is a trade-off between RAM usage and processing.
// <i> if buffer is smaller then strings will often be fragmented.

#ifndef NRF_LOG_BACKEND_UART_TEMP_BUFFER_SIZE
#define NRF_LOG_BACKEND_UART_TEMP_BUFFER_SIZE 64

// </e>

 

Also, enable NRF_LOG_ENABLED as

// <e> NRF_LOG_ENABLED - nrf_log - Logger
//==========================================================
#ifndef NRF_LOG_ENABLED
#define NRF_LOG_ENABLED 1
#endif

Already solved it because the speed in putty i set 15200. Not 115200
