| Jul 14, 2023 at 10:38 | comment | added | Iliketurtles | previously, I tried every baud rate which got me a few things, but not what I wanted, also, I don't know what you mean to remove the anemometer, and also is this issue between the serial moniter or hardware, because if it is serial moniter, I can skip this part and try to put it directly onto the website. last thing, I don't really know what you want the picture to be of | |

If the esp8266 is continually crashing then it may write to the console at a baud rate other than the one you selected. Try changing this to 115200 or 74880 in Serial.begin() and the console to see readable output. | |

| Jul 13, 2023 at 9:58 | comment | added | 6v6gt | By garbage, do you mean that even if the anemometer is stopped, you get initially a high speed reading in the serial monitor which, continually reduces each second ? | |
