node-red-node-arduino
|
|
=====================
|
|
|
|
A <a href="http://nodered.org" target="_new">Node-RED</a> node to talk to an Arduino running firmata.
|
|
|
|
**Note** : This is the same node as was in the core of Node-RED.
|
|
As of v0.10.8 you will need to install it from here if still required.
|
|
|
|
Install
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
Run the following command in the root directory of your Node-RED install, usually
|
|
this is ~/.node-red .
|
|
|
|
npm install node-red-node-arduino
|
|
|
|
|
|
Usage
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
The Firmata firmware must be loaded into the Arduino.
|
|
|
|
See the [main documentation](http://nodered.org/docs/hardware/arduino.html) for
|
|
details and examples of how to use this node.
|
|
|
|
###Input Node
|
|
|
|
Connects to local Arduino and monitors the selected pin for changes.
|
|
|
|
You can select either Digital or Analogue input. Outputs the value read as **msg.payload** and the pin number as **msg.topic**.
|
|
|
|
It only outputs on a change of value - fine for digital inputs, but you can get a lot of data from analogue pins which you must then handle.
|
|
|
|
You can set the sample rate in ms from 20 to 65535.
|
|
|
|
###Output Node
|
|
|
|
Connects to local Arduino and writes to the selected pin.
|
|
|
|
You can select Digital, Analogue (PWM) or Servo type outputs. Expects a numeric value in **msg.payload**. The pin number is set in the properties panel.
|
|
|
|
###Example
|
|
|
|
Simple flow to blink Pin 13
