Hi, all!
I use two serials simultaneously.
Serial2.on('data', function (data) {...
and
Serial3.on('data', function (data2) {...
i cant write like
Serial3.on('data2', function (data2) {...
last one doesn't work
if both serials work, some wrong data I see in the serial buffer- doubled snippets...
how do I do it right?

You should not write SerialN.on('data2'... ) beacause there is no such message. All serials can register a callback on the 'data' event. then the variable 'data' (which is a different thing from the name of the event) is local to the function, so no need to call it differently.

So, what i mean is:

Serial2.on('data', function(data) { console.log("Received " + data + "on serial2") });
Serial3.on('data', function(data) { console.log("Received " + data + "on serial3") });

should just work.
