I'm running the following code on my Teensy LC:
In the serial monitor, if I type in any characters, I get the error:
Assuming this is a problem with the Arduino IDE serial implementation, I'd like to move away from the Arduino IDE serial monitor. However, the teensy LC does not show up as a COM port.
Here is where I get very confused... a friend of mine swears that he's used the teensy LC on windows through a traditional com interface, but reading this thread: https://forum.pjrc.com/threads/32862-HID-device-to-COM-Port it seems like it should not enumerate as a COM port.
I've run the serial_installer.exe file several times, as administrator, but the device still does not show up as a COM port. I can see it under HID devices. If I had the *.inf file, I could force it to use that, but I can't find this file anywhere.
I'm using Windows Vista and Arduino 1.6.7.
Code:
void setup()
{
Serial.begin(9600);
}
void loop()
{
char inByte = Serial.read();
// don't print character if not printable
if(inByte>33)
{
Serial.print(inByte);
}
}
In the serial monitor, if I type in any characters, I get the error:
