Re: How to get serial data from USB using instrument control

[Andrius Sutas]

Hey,

If you read description of srl_read() (e.g. help('srl_read')) it says the return value is uint8 aray i.e. unsigned byte. 

In your case you are getting 49 which is "1" in ASCII, so it is working! If you want to get char as output, try using "char(srl_read(s, 1))"

Also, thanks for testing and feedback!
