I am at the stage of my Eggtimer TX build where I need to perform “initial testing”.
Below is the text from the instructions on how to hook it up with the USB cable…
“Connect the USB-Serial cable so that the BLACK (GND) wire is on the terminal marked GND, and the WHITE (RXD) wire is on the terminal marked RXD. The GREEN (TXD) wire on the cable should be left unconnected. DO NOT connect anything to the third pin, the one that’s marked “3V3”. See the picture below.”
The photo referred to shows the WHITE (RXD) wire connected to the TXD pin - there is no RXD pin.
I‘m just looking for clarification before I hook this up and possible damage it. Do I follow the photo or use the GREEN (TDX) wire on the pin?
