Electronic – UART in the code transmits a character, yet on the oscilloscope I find it gave me another signal

I using MSP430FR6989 microcontroller (development board MSP-EXP430FR6989) to try and send a UART signal via it's TX pin

The configuration of the MSP430:

• Clock System 32.768 Khz
• Baud Rate 9600
• 8 bits, No Parity, LSB first, One Stop bit
• Using eUSCI_A0 module (Enhanced Universal Serial Communication Interface A0 module), and using P4.2 UCA0TXD pin

The premise of the mini-project is, when I press a button, a digital input isr is serviced, and an 'A' is transmitted via the UART module.

'A' = 0x41 = 0b 0100 0001

so if LSB bit is sent first it will be 1000 0010

following the character format of the UART Start D0 D1 D2 D3 D4 D5 D6 D7 Stop 0 1000 0010 1

Section 30.3.2 of the MSP430 user guide

I expected the signal to look like this in the oscilloscope

However, when I debugged the UART TX pin using an oscilloscope, this is the signal that I got:

the char that I received is (from MSB to LSB): 0b 1010 0001 = 0xA1

I changed the code so that when I press a button a 0 would be written on the Transmit Buffer, but this is the signal I got from the oscilloscope:

I sent a 0 yet I received a 1000 0000

Note: I am not sure if this is relevant or not, but I pressumed time in the oscilloscope goes from left to right, however, the time cursor E is at 0.00 us and S is at -105us, which suggest that time goes from right to left.

That is part of my code that I think is relevant to the post FYI
