hello list!
i'm trying to get my arduino board to run with pd.
i work on a g4 powerbook, OS 10.4.8 with the latest installer from
hans, Pd-0.39.2-extended-test7.
the arduino works fine with processing, the blinking led test file
works, so i upload the pd_firmware.
when i open the arduino-help file everything seems to work fine, i
can open a connection and get this message:
[comport] opened serial line device 1 (/dev/tty.Bluetooth-PDA-Sync)
- is this already wrong? is that the correct type of connection?
then i set the port 13 to output and toggle the pin 13 on and off,
but the led just doesn't start to blink.
i'm sorry if this is a complete newbie error, but still - any
recommendations?
thank you in advance,
emanuel
You need to connect to the serial line device that has "usbserial" in
it. /dev/tty.Bluetooth-PDA-Sync seems to be a Bluetooth PDA.

i assume not. for example on my computer, the arduino is on /dev/ttyUSB0 . to open that device with comport, i have to send a message [open 8(. the help-file of arduino has only a radio, that covers the range from 0-7. but on many systems the right address is much higher than 7 (e.g 48). i don't know what is usual on osx, but i would try any number up to 100, until you see something like /dev/ttyUBS0 (this is on linux, don't know about osx).

don´t know pduino at all, but just in case, if you are planning to use comport object with arduino or any other serial device, open your shell and type:
[code]i=0; for f in ls /dev/tty.*; do echo $i $f; i=$(( $i + 1 ));
done[/code]
which will list all your tty devices and serial line numbers.

Also, on the most recent versions of [comport], sending an [devices ( message should print out a similar list to the Pd window.

Man has survived hitherto because he was too ignorant to know how to
realize his wishes. Now that he can realize them, he must either
change them, or perish. -William Carlos Williams
that simple!
it was number 8, so extending the radiobutton to select the serial
port was the simple solution!
thank you gordo&roman!
i'll now start to mess around with a stepper motor h bridge and try
to combine it with camera tracing, so i might be back with another
question soon...
thank you again!
