How to Auto start a python script that uses GPIO tx/rx pins
Hi Can someone please help, written a script that sends out data using the GPIO tx/rx pins - when I start the script from a terminal all is well, my serial device see's the data :D So the next step was to auto-start the same script, in other words automatically run the script on power-up. - that see...

Re: Running two GPIO python scripts at once
cae2100 You mentioned that you were using the serial port to send data to a Pic, are you using the GPIO pins and by chance do you autostart your script on reboot ? I ask cause I've written a script that does use the GPIO Rx/Tx pins, if I start the script from a terminal sudo python go.py everything ...

Problem with P1 tx/rx pins
Hi All I'll try to clarify my problem. Basically I have written a small script that controls some GPIO and transfers some data out through the tx/rx (P1 14/15). All works well if I allow the RPi to boot then I run the script from a terminal like this :- sudo python go.py The transmitted data is rece...

Problem using Tx Rx pins after auto start
Has anyone any idea why I can not use the P1 tx/rx pins after my python script runs automatically on boot. If I restart the script using sudo python go.py for example, all is well. I autostart the script from the following /home/pi/.config/lxsession/LXDE/autostart which has sudo /home/pi/python go.p...

Re: Detecting a button press with Lazarus
I finally got it! I realized I was using a wrapper for a very old version of wiringPi. I ran the wiringPi.h file through the h2pas tool and replaced the wrapper I was using with the generated file. After a few tweaks and some judicious commenting out of lines that would not compile, it works!!! (ye...

Re: Lazarus and wiringPi
Where can I find an example ?
Been looking all over the place - no joy.
I have got the sample that uses fps - but I want have a play with the wiringPi example
Any ideas
cheers

I have a small python script, that uses GPIO, gnuplot to plot various values from analogue devices, every now and then the script will close for no apparent reason, I'm wondering if it's because I print out stuff to the LX terminal every 5 seconds, does anyone now if there is a limit to the number o...

Did you have any success implementing this ? - if so would it be possible to share.

Re: 50 extra IO (16 analogs) for £8
Hi
Is it possible to run espruino at a higher baudrate ? - if I set it to say 38400 the received data is meaningless - only seems to be valid at 9600

Re: 50 extra IO (16 analogs) for £8
hi With respect to the F4 version, it appears that I am unable to read any Analog port that does not have the description 'ADC123_IN*' as found in the stm32F4discovery (Doc ID 022256 Rev 2) can you confirm this ? Also I've noticed that after a short while (approx 3m) of executing the python script, ...

Re: 50 extra IO (16 analogs) for £8
That looks good. You don't actually need a print around the analogWrite as it doesn't return a value. It doesn't hurt though. Unfortunately I haven't implemented DAC support yet - when you use analogWrite it outputs using PWM - which may confuse your volt meter unless you filter the signal with a c...

Re: 50 extra IO (16 analogs) for £8
Think I've removed the rogue characters - can you tell me if I'm using the following correctly
print espruino_cmd("print(analogWrite(A4,0.5))") - I was expecting to see a voltage of 2.5v on DAC 1
I only see a constant 5v on STM32F4
I switched to IDLE - all seems good

I'm not quite sure why that would be - but looking at it, the indentation had got broken anyway. I've updated it and I can now copy and paste it off the website into a file here and it works. You could always try the code that got pasted into an earlier forum post here: http://www.raspberrypi.org/p...
