Hi Guy's,

i need some help...
since several day i'd try to read the inputs from a bluetooth(wiimote)/usb(Xbox controller) device but without access...
both devices are not connected at the same time.

i used "joystick" to assign the devices

what i've tried frist:
i used the "SysFileAsync" -lib and an example from Viacheslav Mezentsev(Thanks!) to read out "dev/input/js0", i got some values but, these are crap and doesn't match with "hexdump".

then i've tried to use the "SerialCommVisu" example from the store, but without access too.
i didn't recive any input...

//set the special parameters for the port
// depending on the Port and the bandwidth the values should be adapted
IF xTwoLines THEN
   FirstSerialLine(
      slMode:= SL_READ, //reading port 
      udiPort:= 1, //Port number
      udiBaudrate:= 11500, //bandwidth
      paParity:= COM.PARITY.EVEN, //the parity is optional
      sbStopBits:= COM.STOPBIT.ONESTOPBIT,
      udiByteSize := 8); //the stopbits are optional );
(*   SecondSerialLine(
      slMode:= SL_WRITE,  //writing port
      udiPort:= 2, 
      udiBaudrate:=11500,
      paParity:= COM.PARITY.EVEN,
      sbStopBits:= COM.STOPBIT.ONESTOPBIT,
      udiByteSize := 8);*)
ELSE
   (*ThirdSerialLine(
      slMode:= SL_READWRITE, 
      udiPort:= 6, 
      udiBaudrate:= 9600,
      paParity:= COM.PARITY.EVEN,
      sbStopBits:= COM.STOPBIT.ONESTOPBIT,
      udiByteSize := 8)*);
END_IF

here my "CODESYScontrol_user.cfg" config:

Zitat:
[SysCom]
;Linux.Devicefile=/dev/ttyS
Linux.Devicefile=/dev/input/js0 //<-- joystick assignment for the Xb contoller or the Wiimote
Linux.Devicefile=/dev/ttyAMA0 // <-- the wiimote is assigned to this device

maybe someone has experience with this kind of application and give me an advice or push me on the right track.

in the case of the implementation of BT devices via onboard BT controller of the Pi, Edwin can give some advices :3

thanks for your help! :>

Hi Chris!

Sounds like a cool project!
I think the way to go is to use the library CmpCharDevice to access the event interface directly.

This bypasses all buffers and gives you a similar access as you achieve with the system calls open, read, write, close and ioctl directly.

It would be great if you share your results after you got s.th. working. Preferably on https://forge.codesys.com which is still in a beta phase, to which you are heartly invited.

Ingo

Hi Ingo,

thank you for your response!
i will try it out the next days... and for sure i will share the project and my experiences .

Hi,
for the com port settings you need to add in

/etc/CODESYSControl_User.cfg

[SysCom]
Linux.Devicefile=/dev/ttyAMA

if you need to use more and different serial coms you need to do this in UDEV rules (under Linux)
or even ( not nice) with symbolic links for exmaple /dev/ttyS-> /dev/ttyAMA1 then ttyAMA0 is Com1 and ttyAMA1 is Com2

According the CmpChardevice... to read for exmaple/dev/input/js0 see attached example.
