Hi, trying to get the UART communication running between my computer and the esp8266 module. When I power up the module I get the following messages recieved on the bus. So I'm guessing that I have the protocol correctly set up at least. Or?

And then when I try to write "AT" and axpect to get "OK" back, I get the following messages.

//==============================================================================

TX: AT
RX: ?
RX: V?

Any one who knows what the problem is?
I have tried to change the baud, but that does not help, that only makes the start up text unreadable.

Ok, so I changed the baud to 115200 and got the following messages on the bus at power on.

Then I realised that I had to add + (char)13 + (char)10) to the messages that I want to send also.
And now I'm getting the following respons on the "AT" command.

//==============================================================================

TX: AT
RX: AT


busy p...

OK


ERROR

Why is there a "busy p..." ?
And why the "ERROR" ?
