I sincerely apologize for not responding to this sooner. Due to the rapid progression, over the past few years, of a serious genetic condition I've been battling for nearly two decades, I'm losing the use of many of my faculties, one such being motor control and the use of my hands. The care, appointments, and procedures required to keep me even as barely functional as I am now take up at least 75% of my time. The other 25% is lost in either not feeling good enough to function, or feeling good and just not being able to function at all. I'm basically at constant war with my own body; up until now, I've won many battles, but I'm out of time and out of weapons, I'm losing ground, and it has all just become too much for me. Because of that, I can't describe how terrible I feel for having to neglect my projects, such as this library, and the great people who may find my work helpful, especially as I'm, in absolutely no way, a flaky individual. I wish I could continue being helpful but, these days, I can't even help myself, and it genuinely eats me up. I had so much planned and so many things I wanted to do and/or finish. But I'm out of moves, other than offering my profuse apologies. I wish I could offer more right now. I really do. I can't make any promises, but I'll try to give your fix a look this weekend and, though I'm sure you've moved on, I'll see if there's anything I may be able to do to resolve this permanently for others in the future. Especially as I've become a big fan of the XIAO boards. However, if there's anyone out there who may be interested in collaborating to revamp or (help) maintain this library, and maybe help me with some other projects, please let me know. My mind is still fully functional despite my physical state. So I might still be of use if I had a bit of help. Thanks for your interest in this library, and for your help and attention regarding this matter. Please accepts my apologies for taking so long to reply. I will see what I can do to resolve this issue Dominic M. Luciano |
Some 3rd party devices (in this case a Seeeduino XIAO) do not have their hardware serial port linked to the USB serial port, causing
Serialto do nothing except print the output to the serial monitor. UsingSerial1fixes this issue.I'm not too sure of a way to fix this without being unable to use the serial monitor as well... Perhaps checking if the program is in debug mode would work?
