Messages not showing about ardity

[dwilches]

Hello! Could you see if enabling DTS and RTS solve the issue? The change should be in the AttemptConnection Method of the AbstractSerialThread class. If that works I will include that by default in Ardity as others have reported similar issues. Regards

I have 2 suspicions: 1. The data being sent from the device is in the form of hex bytes (as shown in the image). Is that a problem? Also, they come as packets.

Does it matter if the device is arduino or not? — You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.

I'm sorry I have no idea what dts and rts means. There is no such flag in the method you indicated (see image).

Could you write the lines of code that I need to add to the AttemptConnection method here?

Hello,

Sure, no problem. Please locate these 2 lines:

serialPort.WriteTimeout = writeTimeout;
serialPort.Open();

And in between them, enable DTR and RTS like this:

serialPort.WriteTimeout = writeTimeout;
serialPort.DtrEnable = true;
serialPort.RtsEnable = true;
serialPort.Open();

Let me know how it goes,
Daniel W.

Hello,

It looks like there is progress after enabling DTR and RTS. I was getting the messages 'Arrived: I????' repeatedly (happened only once, directly after I made changes to the code), but I don't have a screenshot of that, because I cleared the console. But after that whenever I press play again, there were no values coming, just the 'Device connected' message and when I disconnect and reconnect the device, the message in the image below appears.

Again, to double check, I checked if the values are actually being sent by the device via my python script, and yes they are being sent, but not to Unity apparently. :(

Any ideas?

Really appreciate your responses btw.

Thanks,
Brolin

I'm having the same problem...
Btw, I'm writing in arduino in C language, using Atmel Studio and flashing with AVR8.
Verified the port with arduino IDE monitor, and it indeed send the messages, but Unity just don't receive/show them.
Please if anyone find the solution I would be grateful!
Sam

Hello @samu158820 ,
In which scene are you experiencing the issue? and what is the delimiter of your data?

Notice that scenes like DemoScene_AutoPoll expect the data to be sent in lines, while the scene DemoScene_CustomDelimiter allows you to set a custom delimiter. So depending on the format of your data you need to use one or the other to test your device.

Regards.

Actually I've tested all the scenes available, so the peoblem couldn't be that. My solution was creating a custom serial port reader on unity, and changing the computer I was testing for a Notebook, then everything just worked fine. Thank you for your support, Sam.
