Update: I have tried: pigs t pigs pigpv pigs hwver in the terminal, all return socket connection failed. Also, cat /dev/pigerr& returns: [1] 18077 I then tried: sudo killall -USR2 pigpiod sudo killall -USR2 pigpiod sudo killall -USR2 pigpiod sudo killall -USR2 pigpiod sudo killall -USR2 pigpiod sudo...

Hi all, Does anyone know if PIGPIO runs on the latest raspian. I am using a model B+ (not a 2) and have had pigpio running quite happily. I have now upgraded to the 31-01-2015 release of Raspian and I get the following error when trying to run my program: %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%...

Hi all, I have a script (to run at start-up) that listens for incoming IR pulses or button interrupts. Part of the code uses the Ctrl C keyboard interrupt to interrupt the listening and allow me to type messages into the program. I have tested this in idle with no problems, but when I make it run at...

Many thanks for you help. Understanding how an IR hash is generated has helped no end!

The hasher just creates a number from the length of the individual pulses which make up the IR code (by comparing the last and current pulse lengths). The hash itself uses a standard published algorithm. Generating a hash is much simpler then trying to decode the myriad of different remote control ...

You can use pigpio to get IR signals. It certainly works with some of my remotes. Try the Python IR receiver at http://abyz.co.uk/rpi/pigpio/examples.html#Python_code Hi Joan, I can detect 'hash' values using your IR_haser.py. Unfortunately, I am sending and receiving 8 bit serial ASCI characters, ...

Hi,

I have a similar thing on pin 21 (BCM). I am connecting the GPIO pins to IR sensors (powered by Pi) which seems to cause a reboot on shutdown. In addition, if I try to set up an GPIO.add_event_detect on pin 21 it fails with 'RunTimeError : Failed to add edge detection'.

Any ideas?

Hi all, Does anyone have any c code (or super speedy Python?) to read the pulse length of a GPIO input. I am trying to read demodulated IR pulses, in the order of 1ms - 5ms. The input signal appears as active low and typically goes: 5ms low 'start' bit 1ms high space 8 x data bits (either low 1.5ms ...

Hi All, I have been trying to get a Python program to, at a definable point in the code, call a separate C program, run the C program and then continue back in Python. I am trying to communicate over GPIB using the Pi. I have got one way communication (with the Pi talking), but due to the high-level...

Hi all, I am trying to use a Pi to control GPIB instruments. I have an Arduino mega 2560 acting as a serial to gpib converter taking care of the gpib side of things; no problems there. I want to communicate with the Arduino via infrared LED's and receivers (I have a hardware solution to the 38KHz ca...
