Hello everyone!
I also ordered 2 pairs of HC-12. I am struggling with them, unfortunately. I use them with two Arduino UNO-s but cannot make them work (software serial). As a last step, I connected the HC-12-s to USB to Serial converter and connected them to my PC. Still not working. Although, when I connected the USB to Serial converter's TX and RX pins via wire to each other, communication was successful. I have a feeling that my HC-12 modules are faulty. The AT commands are being accepted, I also get response from the modules when typing AT commands.
Many tutorials don't require an external power supply when testing these modules and also don't require capacitor and diode. I am using them with 5V from USB to Serial converters.
Any idea?
I got the connection from here:
