Apologies... I switched to another arduino and the problem disappeared.

Hi list,
I'm having trouble getting PD on mac osx 10.11.4 to work with the arduino analog inputs. I am able to upload firmata via the arduino ide. I'm also able to upload blink and get the expected behavior. When loading the arduino pduino examples I am able to get comport to connect to arduino but am not able to get any input from the analog pins.
Has anyone else had trouble with this recently? Any advice?
Thanks! Rick
Hello list! I experience also problems coming now and then whith different firmata together with pduino. Are there by chance any updated info on this, on how to have the latest pduino communicate at it´s best with what Firmata somewhere?

I once made a pduino version that uses less dependencies. I consider it well tested with Firmata v2.2 and v2.3. I see that the current arduino IDE (1.8.1) ships with Firmata protocol version 2.5.1.
I didn't track the changes since 2.3. However, I'm willing to fix pduino if there is some indication that pduino is not compatible with more recent Firmatas.
Please be as specific as possible in reporting what's not working for you.

Thank you! Sorry, just saw the github link now!

Thanks for this hopeful reply! I will be following up with some specific problems regarding the Pduino / Firmata I encountered. To put it short it seems to me that things works much better with the older Firmata v2.1 than the newer ones. Among some problems were problems to setup I/O digital pins from within Pd-patch. But as said, I will return with some specifics within a week or two.
The Pduino version you did Roman, with less dependencies, was that released the ordinary ways - and might it even be searchable through Deken? If so... what to look for?
All the best, Björn Eriksson

No. I haven't touched it for quite a while. Back then, when we (Olsen and me) did it, we had two goals in mind:
* make it easier to maintain and to distribute by removing avoidable dependencies. The original [pduino] used some dependencies in a way that made it really hard to use outside of Pd-extended, for instance by using [zexy/makesymbol], which doesn't work with vanilla zexy that ships as multi-object external library.
* create a GUI version that keeps of track of the state of each pin and facilitates experimenting.
We hoped Hans would incorporate our changes, but he refused to. I don't know if someone took over maintenance of the original [pduino]. If it turns out to be orphaned, I'll be happy to make a proper release and take over maintenance. However, I'll continue working on our fork, not on the original pduino. I hope this is the correct process.
It still has two dependencies, [comport] and pdstring from moocow. The latter can probably be avoided, nowadays. I wonder now what the proper way to deal with dependencies is in Deken. Is there some agreed upon declaration of dependencies for Deken packages?
