I just received the USB-TTL adapter and started un-demo. I used 3 wires to connect RX, TX and GND and set up the Minicom 115200, 8-N-1. However I could not get anything from the terminal while the Kindle DXG demo is rebooting. I could see the led blinks while during booting and another led blinks when I type something on the keyboard. Also when I short cut RX and TX I could see strange characters on Terminal so I think the USB-TTL adapter is fine. I also tried to switch RX and TX but nothing happens. It's mentioned that the Kindle TTL level may not generate good level 0 but I'm not sure how to check that. Could somebody give suggestions?
