Hi to all, I connected Arduino with the Brightsign's serial port and then tried to send a text line to activate videos. The logic for receiving serialport event was configured with BrightAuthor. The problem is: When I send the first Line ("1" in my case) all works fine. But when i send from the second line ("2" in my case) onward, brightsign ignores them. Every time I restart the brightsign always happens the same problem. Please is urgent <!-- s:? --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_confused.gif" alt=":?" title="Confused" /><!-- s:? --> Thank you Vanni

  If you send 2 first, does that work? Is it that it works with the first command you send, no matter what that first command is, or is it only command 1 that works. Can email the brightauthor project file to <!-- e --><a href="mailto:support@brightsign.biz">support@brightsign.biz</a><!-- e -->?
  
  The strings you are sending are always terminated with a carriage return, correct?

  It works with the first command I send, no matter what that first command is.
  I tried printing in the serial port with and without CR
  
  roku.print("X"); //roku is NewSoftSerial Object (viewtopic.php?p=157005)
  
  or
  
  roku.println("X");
  
  I'm sending you the BrightAuthor file... I've to attach the videos in my mail?
  
  Thank you for the fast reply!

  You didn't send me the actual project file, but the published files. If you go to file, save as, you can save a copy of the project file, the .bpf file, that I can open and edit in BrightAuhtor.

  PROBLEM SOLVED!
  Yesterday I was sending from Arduino println("X"); and I expected that it was sending a Carriage Return, but i saw in the Arduino Api documentation that println send \n\r (not only CR).
  So I tried to print("X") and then print("\r"); and it works good!
  
  Thank you for your support!
