[IAEP] Arduino and XO-1
Tony, I have been trying to get the Arduino to work with the XO-1 laptops. (Thanks to your great blog posts) I have successfully installed the Arduino IDE on the laptop, and it works great. Tonight, I installed the Arduino plugin for Turtle Art and (once again using your blog posts), created my first project. When I click Start, I get an error: Check the Arduino and the number of port. How do I do this with TurtleArt/outside the IDE? Thanks so much. Gerald ___ IAEP -- It's An Education Project (not a laptop project!) IAEP@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/iaep

Hi, The Arduino plugin have some checks. This checks are: 'ERROR: Check the Arduino and the number of port.''ERROR: Value must be a number from 0 to 255.''ERROR: Value must be either HIGH or LOW.''ERROR: The mode must be either INPUT, OUTPUT, PWM or SERVO.' The Arduino board needs have the Firmata firmware [1]. The checks are catched with try/excepts that not allows see what is wrong.I can make a version without it to test.. Regards!

Re: [IAEP] Arduino and XO-1
If he have the latest version, the plugin makes a list of the ttyUSB availables
andtry get the first that works.
The header of the Arduino Plugin says:
self._dev = '/dev/ttyUSB0'self._baud = 57600
self._arduino = None
status,output = commands.getstatusoutput(ls /dev/ | grep ttyUSB)
output = output.split('\n')for i in output:
status,aux=commands.getstatusoutput(udevinfo -a -p /class/tty/%s | grep
ftdi_sio /dev/null % i) if (not status):
self._dev='/dev/%s' % i break
I'm not sure if the udevinfo commands exist in the XO.In my Ubuntu 12.10 I
not have it, only the udevadm
Which sugar version you have?
In the Terminal Activity:
check for the N of the arduino:
ls /dev/ | grep ttyUSB
After, check if exist the udevinfo:
See the n, and replace the * in this line:
udevinfo -a -p /class/ttyUSB* | grep ftdi_sio

Your Arduino board could be ttyusbn or ttyacmn where n increments each
time you replug the Arduino. Somewhere, I think /dev , you can see what
your Arduino is.
Somewhere in the Firmata listing the baud rate is set, check its the same
in the plugin code.

Alan,
I have uploaded the newest version of Firmata to the Arduino board, and
still get the first error in your list.
Any thoughts about what I should do next?
Thanks.

Hi,
The Arduino plugin have some checks. This checks are:
'ERROR: Check the Arduino and the number of port.'
'ERROR: Value must be a number from 0 to 255.'
'ERROR: Value must be either HIGH or LOW.'
'ERROR: The mode must be either INPUT, OUTPUT, PWM or SERVO.'
The Arduino board needs have the Firmata firmware [1].
The checks are catched with try/excepts that not allows see what is
wrong.
I can make a version without it to test..

Tony,
I have been trying to get the Arduino to work with the XO-1 laptops.
(Thanks to your great blog posts) I have successfully installed the
Arduino IDE on the laptop, and it works great.
Tonight, I installed the Arduino plugin for Turtle Art and (once again
using your blog posts), created my first project. When I click
Start, I
get an error: Check the Arduino and the number of port.
How do I do this with TurtleArt/outside the IDE?
Thanks so much.
Gerald

Re: [IAEP] Arduino and XO-1
Alan,
When I plug and unplug the board, I noticed changes to the list of stuff in
/dev.
When the Arduino is plugged in, I see /dev/ttyACHO (or ttyACMO). Does this
make sense?
Thanks.

Upon doing some research, apparently /dev/ttyACM0 is the identifier for
the board.
Do I have to modify the plugin? If so, how do I do this?

Alan, Upon doing some research, apparently /dev/ttyACM0 is the identifier for the board. Do I have to modify the plugin? If so, how do I do this? in my blogpost i give a link to a dirty hacked version for ttyACM0 This version http://www.box.com/shared/bsf8tmj6al is hard coded to dev/ttyACM0, that means it only works the first time the Leostick is plugged in and not at all for older Arduino boards. It is patched and works on Sugar 0.94. I cant remember where or what I patched exactly but somewhere in the plugin code it looks for ttyUSBn, n=1,2,3 . and I hacked that It would be good if a more competent programmer than me had it search the ttyUSBn and ttyACMn Tony ___ IAEP -- It's An Education Project (not a laptop project!)
