The Uno board was troublesome back when I first tried it, but that was
a while ago. I didn't make that StandardFirmata_2_2_for_Uno_0_3
firmware, so I don't know what changes it has. Is anyone having these
problems on boards older than an Uno?

It makes no difference at all.
Here's what happens :
Inputs 2 through 7 work fine.
Inputs 8 and 9 work fine.
But if i use any of the inputs within the 2-7 group, and then use
any input of the second group (8 and 9), i have to trigger the later
twice before i can see something is happening.
It goes like this :
(in group 2 to 7)
First guy : "Pushed button 3."
Second guy (Pd) : "Ok, pushed button 3."
First guy : "Pushed button 7."
Second guy : "K, you pushed button 7."
First guy : "Pushed button 8."
Second guy : "Come again?"
First guy : "PUSHED BUTTON 8!"
Second guy : "Oh, yeah, button 8..."
First guy ; "Pushed button 3."
Second guy : "I'm sorry, what button?"
First guy : "BUTTON 3!!"
Second guy : "Yep, button 3.
I hope it is clear now what the problem is.

Ok, I checked in Windows XP, with a custom sketch, and all of my
inputs work flawlessly.
(The IDE seem to work much better in Windows than in Linux btw).
So the problem has to be somewhere between firmata and pduino.
I will try with the latest pduino...
Thanks for your help!

It would good to nail down the source of this and fix it. Which
version of Firmata are you using? Which firmware? Also, there was a
bug like that a while back that was fixed, so make sure you have the
latest Pd patch too:

I fixed it by replacing the mapping object by a custom patch which
deals with the first two switches seperately.
I’ll look it up tomorrow and send you my fix.

It suppose fermata since the wrong numbers arrive at pduino.

Can we fix that??

I happens when switching from the first two switches to the others
within a
8-bit block. Since the block has the wrong header it will ignore
the "on"
message and send the first "off". So you have to press the button
twice.
Once pressed it works until you press another button within that
block and
return to the first one.

Glad to know i'm not the only one with this problem! Sorry for
starting a
new thread.
I have problems with inputs 8 and 9, or 9 and 10 (the first two on
the
second digital input socket).

2011/7/5 Ingo Scherzinger <[email protected]>
This is the same problem I had described several times before.
There is an
error in the 8-bit block where the digital ins 2+3 are coming in.
It can be
traced somewhere in the mapping section. I'll try to finally look
it up
tomorrow.

Hi All,
I apologie if this is off-topic. Please let me know if you think it
is.
I have been working on my arduino-based pedal, and im faced with a
peculiar
problem right now. I'm using 8 digital inputs ( 6 on the first
socket of the
board, inputs 2 through 8, and 2 on the second digital socket,
inputs 9 and
10). The first 6 inputs work perfectly, but when i want to use any
of the
last two inputs (9 and 10), i have to trigger them twice before
they start
working. Then i'm faced with the exact same problem when i get back
to the
first 6 inputs. I am pretty sure that i used the very same wiring
for all 8
inputs.
So... I thought that maybe this could be a problem with firmata or
pduino
(no offense, Hans!). I have been spending the last hour trying to
write a
simple program in the arduino software in order to print in serial
monitor
the values of my digital inputs.
Now my question... Is the arduino software just really really bad?
Or was it
just not designed to work on an ubuntu machine? It is randomly very
slow at
start-up, it randomly disables the serial port menu in Tools, it
randomly
decides to prevent me from uploading the program in the board, or
warns me
that serial port dev/ttyACM0 is already in use, or can't be found.
The fact
that i unplug and replug the board, or change the usb port, or
restart the
software doesn't seem to make any difference.
This is beginning to look more like witchcraft than computer
science to me.
Please help me, or i'll teach it how to fly out my window.
Thank you.
Pierre
