Is it possible to ad an Arduino?

sdetweil

@Shinji0912 u have to have code running in the Arduino sending the data, doesn’t just happen

Shinji0912

@sdetweil I know I’ve set it up but it didn’t worked.

sdetweil

@Shinji0912 seems pretty simple, connect serial port for arduino to serial port for PI…

arduino send 10
https://www.arduino.cc/reference/en/language/functions/communication/serial/write/
pi read 10
https://www.npmjs.com/package/serialport

u can test that without MagicMirror

@sdetweil Thats my Current Arduino code :

volatile int32_t m_counter = 0;
bool WasStarted = false;

static const char *pcDHT11Prefix = "[sensor:DHT11:";
static const char *pcPostfix = "]";

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(9600);
  while(!Serial);
  
  Serial.println("[status:setup:starting]");
  Serial.println("[sensor:DHT11:11]");
  
  int test = 1;
  m_counter = test;

  if(test > 1) {
    WasStarted = false;
    Serial.println("[status:setup:failed]");
    return;
  }
  
  delay(3000);
  WasStarted = true;
  Serial.println("[status:setup:started]");
  delay(100);
}

void loop() {
  Serial.print(m_counter + 11);
  Serial.println(pcPostfix);

  if(m_counter % 3 == 0) {
    delay(1000);
    Serial.print(pcDHT11Prefix);
    Serial.print(m_counter + 11);
    Serial.println(pcPostfix);
    delay(2000);
  }
  if(m_counter >= 60) m_counter = 0;
  m_counter++;

  delay(1000);
  
  }

and i got the ArduPorts running on the MM itself

now it is running but always searching for the module … see Picture.

@Shinji0912 and the config for the port ??

              config: {
                portname: "/dev/ttyUSB0",

ls /dev | grep -i usb

I don’t see a ttyUSB0 on my pi4…
is that the right one on pi?

i would guess that is for a USB plugin serial port, not direct serial port…

I do have a /dev/serial1 (on all 3 of my pi devices, Pi0, Pi3, and Pi4)

Shinji0912

I have it plugged in on my Raspberyy Pi3 and the config on the Pi itself is

	modules: [
 {
	          module: 'MMM-ArduPort',
	          position: 'bottom_right',
              header: 'Arduino Sensors',
              config: {
                portname: "/dev/ttyUSB0",
                updateInterval: 1,
                animationSpeed: 1000,
                displayIcons: true,
                showDescription: true,
                hideLoading: false,
                hideWaiting: false,
                useColors: true,
                sensors: [
{
                        name: "DHT11",
                        description: "Temperature",
                        maxValue: 50,
                        maxFormat: "({0}°C) VERY HIGH",
                        highestValue: 30,
                        highestFormat: "({0}°C) HIGH",
                        highValue: 15,
                        highFormat: "({0}°C) NORMAL",
                        lowValue: 10,
                        lowFormat: "({0}°C) LOW",
                        lowestValue: 5,
                        lowestFormat: "({0}°C) VERY LOW",
                        minValue: 0,
                        minFormat: "({0}°C) OK"
                    },
]
            }
        },

and im not pretty sure what u want to tell me (im not an native english speaker) i come from germany

@Shinji0912 said in Is it possible to ad an Arduino?:

            portname: "/dev/ttyUSB0",

I think that is the wrong device name for the serial port on the pi. if you are using the gpio header pins

Ich denke, das ist der falsche Gerätename für die serielle Schnittstelle auf dem Pi. wenn Sie die GPIO-Header-Pins verwenden

Shinji0912

@sdetweil Im not using the Gpio header pins i have the Arduino connected to the Pi using usb?

sdetweil

@Shinji0912 i have never seen arduino connected via USB… none of my arduino devices have USB plugs

did u check the available device names on your pi?
from a terminal window do

ls /dev | grep -i usb

@Shinji0912 this is my arduino experience
https://www.antratek.com/nodemcu-v2-lua-based-esp8266-development-kit

Shinji0912

@sdetweil Oh ok , the school told us to buy the Uno R3 and it’s the first one i’ve used so far ^^

Shinji0912

@sdetweil alt text

sdetweil

@Shinji0912 don’t see ttyUSB0
are there any message on the console where u start mm? npm start? or pm2 logs --lines=???

??? is a number, default is 15

Shinji0912

@sdetweil Not as far as i can see.

sdetweil

@Shinji0912 so, I would use the linked examples outside mm to make sure it works

Shinji0912

@sdetweil Ok so i have installed Serialport on the Pi and told the arduino to digitalwrite 10 but how to i let the Pi read 10?

sdetweil

@Shinji0912 Google , there are many examples

Shinji0912

@sdetweil , @wishmaster270

Ok , so now i got the Arduino to communicate with the PI via usb, (i got the right Portname using NodeRed). This is the current Arduino Script :

#include <Wire.h>
#include "DHT.h"

#define DHTPIN 2
#define DHTTYPE 11

DHT dht (DHTPIN, DHTTYPE);



void setup()
{
  Wire.begin();
  Serial.begin(9600);
  dht.begin();
}
  

void loop()
{
  delay(2000);
  float temp = dht.readTemperature();
  float rel_hum = dht.readHumidity();
 

  if (isnan(rel_hum) || isnan(temp)) {
    Serial.println(F("Daten vom Sensor konnten nicht gelesen werden!"));
    return;
  }
  float hif = dht.computeHeatIndex(rel_hum);
  float hic = dht.computeHeatIndex(temp, rel_hum, false);

  Serial.print(F("Luftfeuchtigkeit: "));
  Serial.print(rel_hum);
  Serial.print(F("%  Temperatur: "));
  Serial.print(temp);
  
  Serial.print(F("°C "));
  
  Serial.println(F(""));
}

Some things are in german so dont be suprised ^^

and via NodeRed i know that it is working and the Pi is currently reading the data.

i don’t know what to do now :C i thought i had it working this time finally …

EDIT :
Found the mistake i’ve written “ture” not “true” fml…

EDIT 2 :
But it’s still not working as i want it to it still says :“Waiting for Connection” on the Arduport module when launching the MagicMirror.
