Passwords on Sparkfun IoT Datalogger - 9 DoF

Development Boards Other Microcontrollers

Software: Version: 01.00.01 - build 00007c.

Connected via Putty on Windows, via COMx and baudrate 115200.

When setting the password e.g. for the generic MQTT client, I’m using the backspace key but I’m not able to delete the first character .

Hence, for a password “MyPass”, you get “*MyPass”. Furthermore, I don’t know the value of the first letter.

I’m trying to connect the board to a HiveMQ Cloud MQTT broker and I suspect I’m failing due to this.

Can you try connecting to a different broker/client pair (perhaps begin with one that doesn’t use require a PW, then try a public-facing one that requires a PW…but isn’t Hive) https://docs.sparkfun.com/SparkFun_RTK_ … n_sources/ and see if the PW string’s format follows the same pattern? It might be a buffer character or something and this can help narrow down the mismatch
