所以我觉得我很亲密,但我已经撞墙了。这就是我想要实现的目标:我有一个计算点击次数的程序,并且会在更新值时随时将串行数据发送到Arduino(UNO)。
到目前为止,我有以下工作: - 在LED显示屏上滚动字幕(来自Freetronics - http://www.freetronics.com/products/dot-matrix-display-32x16-red#.UOBeKInjmdM) - 通过Serial将新数据写入Arduino的Python脚本(使用PySerial) - 并且Arduino正在接收串行监视器中的数据......
所以我的问题是我无法写信给LED显示屏,请帮忙!
这是我的代码:
import serial
import argparse
myserial = serial.Serial('/dev/tty.usbmodemfd121', 9600)
parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(description='Example with non-optional arguments')
parser.add_argument('count', action="store", type=str)
results = parser.parse_args()
count = results.count
message = "total clicks: " + count
print message
myserial.write(message)
示例:$ python app.py 200
这将向Arduino发送“总点击次数:200”
这是我的Arduino Sketch:
/*
Scrolling text demonstration sketch for Freetronics DMD.
See http://www.freetronics.com/dmd for resources and a getting started guide.
Note that the DMD library uses the SPI port for the fastest, low overhead writing to the
display. Keep an eye on conflicts if there are any other devices running from the same
SPI port, and that the chip select on those devices is correctly set to be inactive
when the DMD is being written to.
*/
// you always need the code from here...........
#include <DMD.h> // for DMD
#include <SPI.h> // SPI.h must be included as DMD is written by SPI (the IDE complains otherwise)
#include <TimerOne.h>
#include "SystemFont5x7.h"
#include "Arial_black_16.h"
#include "Arial_14.h"
#define DISPLAYS_ACROSS 1 // change to 2 for two screens, etc.
#define DISPLAYS_DOWN 1
DMD dmd(DISPLAYS_ACROSS, DISPLAYS_DOWN); // creates instance of DMD to refer to in sketch
char message[] = "test string to be updated";
char serIn; //var that will hold the bytes in read from the serialBuffer
void ScanDMD() // necessary interrupt handler for refresh scanning of DMD
{
dmd.scanDisplayBySPI();
}
void setup()
{
//initialize TimerOne's interrupt/CPU usage used to scan and refresh the display
Timer1.initialize( 5000 ); //period in microseconds to call ScanDMD. Anything longer than 5000 (5ms) and you can see flicker.
Timer1.attachInterrupt( ScanDMD ); //attach the Timer1 interrupt to ScanDMD which goes to dmd.scanDisplayBySPI()
dmd.clearScreen( true ); //true is normal (all pixels off), false is negative (all pixels on)
Serial.begin(9600);
}
void loop()
{
// only if there are bytes in the serial buffer execute the following code
if(Serial.available()) {
//keep reading and printing from serial untill there are bytes in the serial buffer
while (Serial.available()>0){
serIn = Serial.read(); //read Serial
Serial.write( byte(serIn));
}
//the serial buffer is over just go to the line (or pass your favorite stop char)
Serial.println();
}
// Now I want to write the Serial message ti the DMD Disply
dmd.selectFont(Arial_Black_16);
// the text in the quotes in the next line will be scrolled across the display(s).
// message writes the TEST message above, but I want it to write serIn variable (serial data)
dmd.drawMarquee(message,strlen(message),(32*DISPLAYS_ACROSS)-1,0);
// THIS IS WHAT I WANT, but I get this error "invalid conversion from 'char' to 'const char*'"
//dmd.drawMarquee(serIn,strlen(serIn),(32*DISPLAYS_ACROSS)-1,0);
long start=millis();
long timer=start;
boolean ret=false;
while(!ret){
if ((timer+30) < millis()) {
ret=dmd.stepMarquee(-1,0);
timer=millis();
}
}
delay(100);
}
我一直遇到的错误是dmd.drawMarquee()
将第一个参数作为字符串,我对C ++一无所知所以我认为我搞乱了数据类型。
非常感谢任何帮助。

因此,虽然我担心串行读数如何与显示驱动混合在一起,但是您可以将串行读数更改为字符串读取:
序列阅读部分:
if(Serial.available()) {
...
}
只是阅读单个字符。您需要将它们存储在缓冲区中。
变化:
char serIn; //var that will hold the bytes in read from the serialBuffer
要:
char serIn[40]; //buffer that will hold the bytes in read from the serialBuffer
然后是串行循环:
if(Serial.available()) {
int chars_in = 0;
//keep reading and printing from serial untill there are bytes in the serial buffer
while (Serial.available()>0 && chars_in<39){
serIn[chars_in] = Serial.read(); //read Serial
Serial.write( byte(serIn[chars_in]));
chars_in++;
}
serIn[chars_in] = 0;
//the serial buffer is over just go to the line (or pass your favorite stop char)
Serial.println();
}
