This should be no problem at all. Quoting HCS the comport number is  
the argument to the arduino abstraction:

[arduino 1]
[arduino 2]
[arduino 5]

The numbers depend on your computer, of course.  Send a 'devices'
message to get the numbering:

[devices(
|
[arduino]



   - is there a Max version of the Pduino interface stuff? We are a
 multiple
 platform house, so it would be good if we could use the same arduino
 firmware for multiple platforms, i.e. PD and Max.

The Arduino website is a little inconsistent. The Max/MSP page now also
points to:
http://www.arduino.cc/playground/Interfacing/Firmata

as well. PDuino is now firmata and all is well.

SimpleMessageSystem also works on both platforms, but I think
that it is not a sensor system but a general system to talk with the
Arduino board: it can do input and output, but can also be used to
set up parameters of a program running on the Arduino. So it is
even more flexible than firmata which is more flexible than Arduino2Max.



   - Bluetooth Arduino: any luck on linux or OSX so far? Last I heard
 there were problems...

Feb 2007 Erich Berger reported success on Windows, no success on Linux.
I cannot find any other reports.

no problems in OSX.

and i guess you just have to set your bluetooth modules in linux in the
right way..the arduino BT opens just another serial so why say it doesnt
work on linux..?

i will try it ltr,

hi,

i tried for quite a while to get arduino bt talking to my ubuntu dapper 
drake / gnome. but at the end my knowledge about linux was obviously not 
enough. i also think that it should be no problem to get it working,
but how?! was the big question for me.
it might be that other distros would work better for that in a generic
way. anyway i know that my bt works, i can transfer files to other
bt hosts etc, but i was not able to get a working rfcomm to bt arduino.
i would be happy if somebody could work it out. part of my quest is
documented in the arduino forum.

cheers

erich

[PD] Arduino stuff

2007-04-16 Thread Tim Boykett


Hi,

a couple of questions about arduinos and PD and stuff. I hope
they aren't somewhere obvious; I haven't been able to find any
answers.

  - is it possible to have multiple arduinos being talked with by
one PD patch on one machine? Has anyone tried this?

  - is there a Max version of the Pduino interface stuff? We are a  
multiple
platform house, so it would be good if we could use the same arduino
firmware for multiple platforms, i.e. PD and Max.

since the arduino mounts itself as a serial device, you can easily have
more than one arduino and talk to them on different ports with pd. of
course, you'll need for each arduino one [arduino] (or [comport])
object.

pd talks to the arduino via the comport object. if you have several 
arduinos attached, then you want to give each instance of the arduino 
object the corrating portnumber.

   - is there a Max version of the Pduino interface stuff? 

yes, have a look at
http://www.parasitaere-kapazitaeten.net/max_msp/pduino_for_max
it is still beta (serial object is not working properly under windows.)

hmm, should not be a problem on OSX, where or what did you here about 
it? because I also want to get some bt arduinos.

hello,


  - is it possible to have multiple arduinos being talked with by
one PD patch on one machine? Has anyone tried this?




I connected three arduino boards in one PD patch, which had three   
[arduino] abstractions (by Hans) running at the same time, you just  
need to open connected serial line devices separately for each  
[arduino] abstraction object. This worked for me with PowerBook G4  
OSX 10.4.9 and PD extended version by Hans.




Cheers,

   Tim

There's an interim update of serial here, it's much faster:
