I could not get the arduino pro mini to work with just comport no matter how i 
tried, so i installed "Pduino" and after installing

pd-mapping, pd-pure, pd-moocow [pdstring] i got it to work

Funny I was just working on this this morning looking for a simple solution for 
my students.

I found this http://colinzyskowski.com/?page_id=503 to access analogRead.

It kind of works. The third pot interferes with the other two and when I 
modified to code to add a fourth it interfers or doesn't work at all. Seems to 
be something to do with the map function Arduino code not workign correctly 
because when I poll [comport] with [print] each analogRead seems to be on it's 
own "channel". I can't figure out how to separate them any better than using 
[split] with there mapped values (not great). I tried [unpack] and [route] but 
neither of these separate the data streams.

On the hardware side I just have each 10k pot wiper connected it's own analog 
pin on the Uno and each pot is powered and grounded from the Uno via the rails 
on my breadboard. I'm guessing but adding in some resistors might stabilise the 
circuit a bit, I don't know if this would help with the interference or not.

As mentioned above I also had to add a dialout to access the serial port as 
outlined by Rinzwind here

Two more considerations: making sure you have the right firmware on the Arduino 
(sometimes it gets corrupt for seemingly no apparent reason and you need to 
reupload it), and finally making sure that it's getting enough power through 
RPi's USB port to provide stable operation.

If connecting to serial port works when you run pd with sudo privileges, you 
will need to add your user is to the dialout group. See

I have done all of that for use with the ardunio uno, it's when the raspi2 is 
directly connected to the serial pins that it does not connect.
I tested the device on mac and used the ALLINPUTS firmata and it works with a 
virtual serial created by FTDI
just can't seem to talk to it with Linux debian running vanilla

comport works fine with the UNO

mknod? this sounds like you are following advice from the 1990s.
these days mknod is hardly ever needed: instead any devicefiles will be
created on the fly by the resp. drivers.


selecting device in the toggles in the pduino stuff only finds device 0

I am wondering if it's a linux issue because the only serial port at all is

serial 0 /dev/ttyAMA0

a little bit of googling hints that /dev/ttyAMA0 is indeed the name for
the serial interface on the GPIO ports - which afaiu is what you want.

so you just use that device.


then you need to get the permissions correct.
check whether the device is already setup to allow group-members to
write to it, and which group that is:
$ ls -l /dev/ttyAMA0
crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 4, 67 Sep  3 16:12 /dev/ttyAMA0

and eventually add the user running Pd to that group:
pd@raspbian $ sudo bash
root@raspbian # adduser pd dialout

after that you only need to re-login as that user to let the new group
membership have any effect.
