Finally, we print the received string and wait for 1 second with time. The Arduino received the string, and sent it back with a few more words. Then the Raspberry Pi received and printed the final string. This will make you practice on the communication and synchronization of tasks between Arduino and Raspberry Pi.
If you arrived at this point of the tutorial congrats! In the setup function we initialize the pin modes for all 4 LEDs and the push button. We also make sure all LEDs are powered off. Then in the loop we do 2 things: handling the push button and managing the 4 LEDs. We need to debounce the button to avoid unwanted values. When we find out that the button is pressed, we can send some data to the Raspberry Pi via Serial. This is different from Serial. The number we send here is You could imagine sending different actions or messages via Serial, using different numbers.
Note: usually you can also use Arduino interrupts to know when a button has been pushed. If you absolutely have to use interrupts, then set a flag inside the interrupt a simple boolean variable , and use Serial inside your loop function. First we check if the Arduino has received some data from the Raspberry Pi over the Serial communication. If yes, we read the next byte with Serial. In case a wrong value is sent, no LED will be powered on. The timeout is set at 1 second.
In this latter case, we convert the data we received to an integer so we can use in the code. For that we use the function int. As you can see we check that the number is 18 to continue the action.
If you have different commands to handle, using a different number for each command is a good practice. We choose a random number between 1 and 4 to determine which LED to power on. Then we send it with the pySerial write function. If you have many things connected to your Arduino, you might want to add an external power supply on the Arduino power supply connector. Run your Python script and press the push button.
You will see a log and one of the LED on the Arduino will be powered on. Note: to do this application faster and with less code, you can also choose to use the Firmata protocol, with for example the pyFirmata library on Raspberry and StandarfFirmata library on Arduino.
This can help to fix problems during boot, or to log in to the Pi if the video and network are not available. To be able to use the serial port to connect and talk to other devices e. Now we can use the serial ttyAMA0. After connecting the second serial port we launch the command to find the name that Raspberry gives him. Ok, now we create two files, one who writes something on the ttyAMA0 port and the other that reads on the ttyUSB0 port. This doesn't work: 'P' is an invalid option.

If you were telling a human how to parse that output, you'd tell them to look for the line beginning with 'Serial', not to look for the second line. Gerben 2, 12 12 silver badges 17 17 bronze badges. Actually, I intended to uplift this answer for sake of equality, but after running it on my PI and comparing to other version, won't do it because must admit, this answer is not giving precise output by inserting extra leading space.
PS: I won't minus it too though — Van Jone. It still depends on the 'Serial' line being the second to last in the output. There's no guarantee this will always be the case and may change in future kernels. Far better to search for the 'Serial' header, as per fivedogit's comment to another answer.

That's a nice example of UUOC. The shortest and simplest hasn't been provided as an answer yet. Indeed this the way to get it. Colateral Colateral 21 1 1 bronze badge. Long discussion here on whether or not these serial numbers are unique, but the bottom line is that the algorithm is proprietary to the chip manufacturer.
Which effectively means, "nobody knows if the serial number can be counted on to be truly unique". Seamus Seamus Milliways Milliways The Overflow Blog.
