HI!

i am testing to send a simple script from the arduino to start serial communication.

on the arduino

 
void setup() {
  
  Serial.begin(9600);       // use the serial port
}
 
void loop() {
   Serial.println(1);
   delay(5000);
   Serial.println(2);
   delay(5000);
   Serial.println(3);
   delay(5000);  // delay to avoid overloading the serial port buffer
}

serial monitor on MRL shows

i would like to make this useful like a in a if statement or something
 
how should the programming be on the arduino and in MRL?

Hi 

Test with Serial.begin(57600);

 

 

 

Looks a little buggy @ 9600 - I see it working at 57600

 

Python Script - careful of the indentation

serial = Runtime.start('serial','Serial')
serial.connect('COM9')
python.subscribe('serial','publishRX')
def publishRX(data):
       print(chr(data))
       #print(data)
 
Arduino sketch
 
void setup() {
  
  Serial.begin(57600);       // use the serial port
}
 
void loop() {
   Serial.println(1);
   delay(5000);
   Serial.println(2);
   delay(5000);
   Serial.println(3);
   delay(5000);  // delay to avoid overloading the serial port buffer
}
 

You'll see extra carriage return line feeds in the MRL display, because it automatically adds them and the skech is putting them in too with the println

Ok, I put it on github because Alessandro (rightly so) - told me that its the right way (and deleted our code in comments)

I tested this in 119 - I had 2 Arduinos connected and it did not throw any errors.  I think it should work for you.

Let us know how it goes:
