Question about serial port
Hi.
I need help about serial port problems. My program currently using treadmill as output device for position data and patriot for orientation data. I`m using serial port module like most of this forum user using right now. Matlab is my main program previously but i changed to vizard recently. But i still use my original matlab m.file as reference. This is my original matlab command. #set serial port s1=serial('COM1'); set(s1,'Terminator','CR'); set(s1,'InputBufferSize',1024); #open port fopen(s1); #unlock treadmill and read data fprintf(s1,'S0000'); OutData=fread(s1,5); OutData=OutData(2:4,1); #lock treadmill fprintf(s1,'Z'); I can set my treadmill to lock@unlock without no problem. When i run the program no error occured but i received no output bytes from it. x=ser.read() print x print 'received',len(x),'bytes' input/output window show: [''] received 0 bytes I`m pretty sure i got no mistake about serial setting or vizard command because i adjust the parameter for serial and i can lock@unlock my treadmil. So i assume there must be a problem with the connection of terminator and inputbuffersize command in matlab. I`m not really sure this is the cause for my problems but i dont know how to set this in vizard so i just assuming it. Any menthod to changed this in vizard fot this 2 parameter to the way i changed it in matlab? Or did i miss some commands? I already tried this for this whole week but still no positive results. Really need help. Thanks. MJ |
