I am working with a Particle Electron board and a Nextion Enhanced HMI, and I can not read the numerical value I write from the Nextion HMI with a keybdB, to verify that the Electron board manages to read this value I try to show it in another numeric box.
My code is based on the examples that there are for Particle board.
I hope you can help me
Thanks

I understand that my connection is correct, because a part of the code itself works.
But when I write a number from the keyboard it is not visible on the numerical display.
About the baud I understand that it is in default, I want to review it, but sincerely I have no idea how to validate that information.
Is there another way to solve that topic?
When you start an SD update the device tells you what default baudrate has been set on it.
The library uses 9600 as default, if your display has been set to anyhting else you should provide that baudrate via nexInit(yourBaudRate) (e.g nexInit(115200)).
With your code above I do geht the increment/decrement when hitting the respective buttons and when I tap the number controls the values get updated to 50.
In your case, what works and what doesn't?
BTW, for a number pad like in your first image I'd do the actual key handling on the display without even involving the Electron. It should be enough to transfer the final result when you hit OK.
That is working: "I do get the increment/decrement when hitting the respective buttons and when I tap the number controls the values get updated to 50".
That is not working:
What I’m trying to do with the keyboard (n1) and the number (n2), is to verify that n1 sends the value to the electron and shows it in n2, that’s what I can not do, this I’m trying to do to be 100% sure I’m writing a value in the electron.
You want to collect the value from n1 and send it to n2 - your original code sends the value n2 already contains back to it which seems to make little sense but worked as expected in my test
Thanks for the information, I already made the change, but it is not yet shown in value of n1 in n2.

Will you have any other advice that can help me?
Thanks
It behaves slightly different.
When you tap/release n1 I’m not transfering n1 to n2 but rather transfer the value from n0 - which you can increment/decrement via the +/- buttons - to n2.
I missed the overlay screen.
That explains things.
I’ll give it a go.
@eavendano, I think I found your issue.
You haven’t activated the event trigger for Touch Release (nor for Touch Press) which you have on the other components.
I can now see your problem and there would be a way to hook up the controller to the OK button of the keyboard, but I’d rather keep the controller out of the equation and just modify the OK touch release event to also update the n2 component.
