I have a sketch that interfaces my MEGA board with a 4" TFT touch (ILI9486).
That part has been working fine but I just noticed that the serial monitor doesn't work anymore. It's displaying ⸮⸮⸮⸮⸮όS⸮⸮⸮⸮⸮⸮⸮ތ junk.
I've narrowed it down to:
#include <LCDWIKI_SPI.h> //Hardware-specific library
It appears to be hosing communications with the serial monitor because if I comment it and all references to it, serial monitor works.
Just for the heck of it I installed a different SPI hw library: ILI9486_SPI.h.
I tried one of its examples and the serial monitor put out junk for that one too.
I'm new at this stuff but seems like the serial communications for SPI are interfering serial comm for the serial monitor,
Maybe?
