Problem With Radiation Sensor

Hello!

I'm having trouble getting data from a AT1117M, bdkg-01, which is a radiation sensor.

Apparently It can communicate with RS-232, but I can't make it to send me data.
Is there some sort of protocol, or something I need to do to make it work?

I am guessing they ATOMTEX do not want to share the interface... Buy the hardware/software and then you can see what the interface is....

It looks like the communication protocol isn't documented anywhere on the web (that I can find).

You may be running into issues where the data-sheets talk about direct PC connection. This is likely to use the RS232 electrical specifications which isn't really compatible with the TX/RX pins on the Arduino. You need to look at converting the logic levels to TTL.

It's worth a read.
