The quickest way to test a Serial interface is to loop TX to RX using either a wire or a jumper ! When you write a data, you will receive it so you can read them back. $ sudo webiopi -d -c /etc/webiopi/ configĢ014 -01 -12 17: 32: 51 - WebIOPi - INFO - Serial - Serial(/dev/ttyAMA0, 9600bps) mapped to REST API /devices/serial Save and start webiopi foreground in debug mode, you should see the Serial REST binding. You can also change the baudrate to match your device baudrate. You can then use any name you want before the equal (=) symbol. The most important is to match the device name with the tty name you found earlier. serial = Serial device:ttyAMA0 baudrate: 9600 uno = Serial device:ttyACM0 baudrate: 9600 ftdi = Serial device:ttyUSB0 baudrate: 9600 Edit /etc/webiopi/config, and in DEVICES section, add one of following line depending on your Serial interface. Here we can see linux terminals (ttyN), as well as serial interfaces :Ĭonfiguring WebIOPi for Serial access is very easy once you know the tty name. Use ls command with the wildcard/star character to find tty names : $ ls /dev/tty* We can found here the tty name on the very last line : ttyUSB0. usb 1-1.2: FTDI USB Serial Device converter now attached to ttyUSB0 ftdi_sio 1-1.2:1.0: FTDI USB Serial Device converter detected usbserial: USB Serial support registered for FTDI USB Serial Device Right after plugged your old Arduino through USB or any FTDI USB based, you can use dmesg to find out the tty name : $ dmesg | tail Take note of lasts lines, one include a tty name : ttyACM0.

cdc_acm: USB Abstract Control Model driver for USB modems and ISDN adapters usbcore: registered new interface driver cdc_acm cdc_acm 1- 1.2: 1.0: ttyACM0: USB ACM device usb 1- 1.2: New USB device strings: Mfr= 1, Product= 2, SerialNumber= 220 usb 1- 1.2: New USB device found, idVendor= 2341, idProduct= 0043 usb 1- 1.2: new full-speed USB device number 4 using dwc_otg Right after plugged your Arduino Uno through USB, you can use dmesg to find out the tty name : $ dmesg | tail USB Serial Adaptersīefore using your USB Serial adapter, you need to find out its name. As you may already understood, ttyAMA0 refers to the on-board Serial UART available through the GPIO header. lpm_enable=0 console=tty1 root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 rootfstype=ext4 elevator=deadline rootwait lpm_enable=0 console=tty1 console=ttyAMA0,115200 kgdboc=ttyAMA0,115200 root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 rootfstype=ext4 elevator=deadline rootwaitīecome : dwc_otg. Save, then edit /boot/cmdline.txt and remove references to ttyAMA0.įor example : dwc_otg.

If you want to use the Serial UART from the GPIO Header, you first need to disable few things, because it is used for boot debugging by default.įirst, edit /etc/inittab, and comment the last line adding a sharp (#) at the beginning.įor example : #Spawn a getty on Raspberry Pi serial line T0: 23 :respawn :/sbin/getty -L ttyAMA 0 115200 vt10 0īecome : #Spawn a getty on Raspberry Pi serial line Midori and Firefox are known to not support WebIOPi Serial library. WebIOPi Serial library has been written for Chrome, and may not work on other browser. If you prefer PySerial, you can use it inside WebIOPi macros, but you will not benefit from the REST binding and the Serial Monitor.

This tutorials will learn you how to configure and use the embedded Serial driver from the REST API as well as Python scripts. For exemple, you can can connect an Arduino through the USB port or by wiring headers. You can use the WebIOPi Serial driver with the onboard UART as well as USB adapters. This is only intended to be used with full-text Serial protocols, not for low-level and binary interfacing, for which macros still remains the best option. Serial driver also allows a RAW access directly with the REST API and so with the Javascript client library. So you will found the same write & read functions on all three interfaces. It uses a lightweight library instead, dedicated to electronic interfacing, and shares a common abstraction with I2C and SPI drivers. WebIOPi allows to use Serial devices natively without PySerial. PySerial is very good multi-platform Serial library but offers useless features for basic communication between a Pi and electronic components like Arduino.
