Serial Read and MaxMSP by BARRAGAN http://barraganstudio.com
Demonstrates how to read data from the serial port. If the data received is an 'H', the light turns ON, if it is an 'L', the light turns OFF. The MaxMSP patch is included as comented text below. Copy the text of the patch open a new patch in MaxMSP and paste. For the Wiring boards v1 the on-board LED is on pin 48, on Wiring S the on-board LED is on pin 15.
