Re: Unable to set data to send back to the UI

After declaring the InterfacePanel Control_Panel

I can use Control_Panel again in the Setup as noted here

But VS will not allow me to put Control_Panel in the loop as shown here:

Unable to set data to send back to the UI

I'm using VS2015 and because of my sketch size, I've split the single ino file into 6. I'm trying to set the background color of a button based on an arduino variable. I can declare the following: InterfacePanel Panel; // The VS editor accepts this enty But Panel.set blah blah blah //The VS editor o...

Re: Polar Plotting

I finally got around to making a "polar plot". xy polar plot.PNG My "eye" is a LIDAR Lite V2 mounted on a Alex Moss controlled gimbal motor. It works great and is only there so my robot won't run into anyone. Its main guidance is a POZYX system. With robotic "what's around m...

Clearing a plot

I'm trying to clear a plot. I'm assuming I should use the Clear() command.

Trouble is, MYPLOT.Clear() is not recognized as a valid command.

Please tell me what I'm doing wrong.

Thanks

Polar Plotting

Any chance of adding polar plotting to the time and XY plots. I'm using a LIDAR on my robot for obstacle avoidance.

Thanks,

RoboBill

otherwise I'll just calc it out on an xy ploy :cry:

Plotting with XBee

I can make the sinewave example work thru the standard serial port. But when I modify the sketch for an XBee series 1 on pins 8 & 11, I'm unable to see any plot data. What must I do to the arduino sketch to have the XYPlot data sent via my XBee. Thanks RoboBill Here is your example sketch with m...

Re: SoftwareSerial example

Finally!!! The problem (yep all me) was I was using the Blink interface as it was downloaded from your site. Thanks to your last message, I first manually sent the !OnTime 50\r\n command via the XBee connection to confirm the SoftwareSerial connection and, sure enough the blink changed. So then I mo...

Re: SoftwareSerial example

Hi Phil, Thanks for that example and the links to the CommandHandler you emailed to me. Very informative. Unfortunately I still am unable to change the interval and duration. I am using XBee Series 1 as a simple serial connection Here is the code I am using: #include "CommandHandler.h" // ...

Re: SoftwareSerial example

Hi Phil, To begin, I'm simply trying to plot several encoders data and to have a simple switch to stop the robot if it looks like its going to crash :oops: So now I've changed back over to XBee series 1 since I'm just talking between one computer and one arduino. Also because the Arduino code for XB...
