I am trying to use the USB Device library on STM32Cube but when I execute using the debugger or that I try to turn an LED on in CDC_Receive_FS, it never reaches that point.
Here is how I set up everyting:
My board is a NUCLEO-F746ZG
I enabled USB_OTG_FS in Device_Only mode, activated _VBUS and _SOF. Left everything else by default and USB On The Go FS global interrupt is enabled!
I set up USB_DEVICE: Class For FS IP set to Virtual Port Com, left everything by default
Main loop left empty
CDC_Receive_FS: put breakpoint in it and/or HAL_GPIO_WritePin(LD1_GPIO_Port, LD1_Pin, GPIO_PIN_SET);
I have TIM2 set up for the things I would like to do when it will work
Then I tried to send data to the board, first using Python using serial with a baudrate of 921600 but got nothing. Then using PuTTY with a baudrate of 9600, still nothing...
If anyone has a clue, I have been struggling with it the whole day.
Here is the whole project: https://ecloud.global/s/cjGYqK6z9g58Lm4
I am new to pybricks and have found very little documentation to help answer my own query. I have written what I thought would be a simple program to spin my robot on the spot until the UltrasonicSensor sees something. It will then push forwards. If it is pushed backwards and sees a black line, it should try and swing out of the way.
The following code "works", but it's response to the Ultrasonic and Light sensors is significantly delayed:
#!/usr/bin/env pybricks-micropython
from pybricks.hubs import EV3Brick
from pybricks.ev3devices import Motor, ColorSensor, UltrasonicSensor
from pybricks.parameters import Port
from pybricks.tools import wait
ev3 = EV3Brick()
eyes = UltrasonicSensor(Port.S2)
left_motor = Motor(Port.B)
right_motor = Motor(Port.A)
right_light = ColorSensor(Port.S1)
left_light = ColorSensor(Port.S4)
while True:
if right_light.reflection() < 50:
ev3.speaker.say('black')
left_motor.run(500)
right_motor.run(-100)
wait(2000)
left_motor.run(500)
right_motor.run(500)
wait(1000)
if eyes.distance() > 200:
left_motor.run(500)
right_motor.run(-500)
else:
left_motor.run(-500)
right_motor.run(-500)
I can see in the (limited) documentation that you can apparently change motor settings but I can't find direction on how to do this (or even if it would be useful). Any help would be appreciated.
ev3.speaker.say(text) synthesizes speech as it goes. This is fun, but it is very slow. This is especially noticeable in a control loop like yours.
I'd recommend using ev3.speaker.beep() instead. You could even select the frequency based on the reflection value so you can "hear" what the sensor "sees".
So the problem was that I used the "run" command to move the motors. Run appears to have an acceleration and deceleration component.
I used "dc" instead of "run" and the motors instantly respond to the sensor data now.
I am working with STM32H743, and I want to use Pin no. 89 as DAC output. Is there any register setting where I can change PA4 to PG4(89).
I tried replacing PA4 to PG4 in a working example code, but the output still comes on PA4.
I don't know which STM32F7 you are using exactly so I could not lock at the Reference Manual, but I guess it is the same as on STM32F4 devices:
The answer is quite simple:
NO, you could not reroute the DAC pins.
(A look ad a randomly chosen F7 datasheet also shows only one pin for the DACs)
I simply guess it is not possible to route the output signal through a multiplexer without generating to much interference.
According to the H753 datasheet (can't find a specific one for H743), there are two DAC channels, PA4 is DAC1_OUT1 and PA5 is DAC1_OUT2. It does not appear to be changeable.
I wanted to output 'flame detected' or 'no flame detected' but I don't know how to implement this in a code. I've seen codes from google but they are using
GPIO.add_event_detect(17,GPIO.RISING, callback = mycallback, bouncetime = 600)
which only works when it is detecting flame.
In your example you are detecting a rising edge (the pin goes from low to high). A falling edge is the opposite so you could fire a separate callback with:
GPIO.add_event_detect(17, GPIO.FALLING, callback=other_callback, bouncetime=600)
However, I'd suggest you use GPIO Zero instead of RPi.GPIO as you may find it more intuitive:
from gpiozero import InputDevice
sensor = InputDevice(17)
while True:
sensor.wait_for_active()
print("Fire!")
sensor.wait_for_inactive()
print("No fire")
You might find that the logic is reversed (says "fire" when there's no fire) in which case use InputDevice(17, pull_up=True)
Alternatively to the code above you could use if sensor.is_active or use the callbacks mechanism sensor.when_activated = callback. See the gpiozero docs for more info.
I've started using V-Rep to simulate some robots (Pioneers and quadrotors, initially), but I've been having problems when I try to connect it with ROS. I tried to replicate the example from RosTopicPublisherAndSubscriber.ttt and it only works the first time, after I close it and load it again, it doesn't work anymore, my code is practically identical to the example, except that I use getPose and it's a Pioneer (the one that comes with V-Rep), here's my code:
if (simGetScriptExecutionCount()==0) then
-- Check if the required plugin is there (libv_repExtRos.so or libv_repExtRos.dylib):
local moduleName=0
local moduleVersion=0
local index=0
local pluginNotFound=true
while moduleName do
moduleName,moduleVersion=simGetModuleName(index)
if (moduleName=='Ros') then
pluginNotFound=false
end
index=index+1
end
if (pluginNotFound) then
simDisplayDialog('Error','ROS plugin was not found.&&nSimulation will not run properly',sim_dlgstyle_ok,false,nil,{0.8,0,0,0,0,0},{0.5,0,0,1,1,1})
else
-- Retrive the handle of the vision sensor we wish to stream:
lHandle=simGetObjectHandle('Pioneer_p3dx')
-- Now enable topic publishing and streaming of the vision sensor's data:
topicName=simExtROS_enablePublisher('p3dx',1,simros_strmcmd_get_object_pose,lHandle,0,'')
if (topicName == nil) then
simDisplayDialog('Error','Nil',sim_dlgstyle_ok,false,nil,{0.8,0,0,0,0,0},{0.5,0,0,1,1,1})
else
simDisplayDialog('Error','Not Nil',sim_dlgstyle_ok,false,nil,{0.8,0,0,0,0,0},{0.5,0,0,1,1,1})
end
-- Retrive the handle of the passive vision sensor. We will use the passive vision sensor
end
end
Any idea is welcome! Thanks in advance!
PS: Also, if anyone with 1500 reputation points could create the v-rep tag, that would be great!
Ok, the people at V-REP helped me solve it. So basically I should used the argument as -1 instead of 0.
So basically, a should have done this
topicName=simExtROS_enablePublisher('p3dx',1,simros_strmcmd_get_object_pose,lHandle,-1,'')
instead of
topicName=simExtROS_enablePublisher('p3dx',1,simros_strmcmd_get_object_pose,lHandle,0,'')
