Problem with Serial Read

Hello everyone,
I am a neophyte arduino and firefly. I'm using a simple sensor for measuring the temperature and its associated script, so not a script Firmata, I use FF for reading data, but when I use the "Serial Read" I can not see the data, I get the message "Data failed conversion from TEXT to NUMBER "

Can you help?

I am using just the component Serial Read, not UNO Read.
I do not understand how to use Firmata. I do the upload at board of the first sketch from the site and after? How should I / can I use other scripts?

I'm using a DHT11, a DHT22 and a DS18B20

Hi Emanuele,

probably to late for this. but for others having the same issue. (like I was)

When using the serial read component you do not use the the firmata. just upload your code then open a port in firefly (make sure your baud is the same as you set in your code, and that you have the correct port coming in from a panel (check port seems not to work without the firmata?))

the serial read will just pump out whatever your code is putting out with serialprint or serialprintl
