Get it Running

I want compile it and run on my Uno. See Russ's Computer Environment

Ton of files ( well maybe 10 ) on gitHub.

• Seems the only one that matters much is controlino.cpp.
• Download it.
• Make a new arduino project. I called mine controlino_ino.
• In the project's file, controlino_ino.ino, paste the contents of controlino.cpp.
• Follow the directions in the file.
• Compile.
• Worked the first time.
• Now have something on my uno. What?
• More comming

Protocol

What is the Protocol? Have not found any documents. Reading the code and probing with my terminal. Send a command and get a response.

• commands appear not to be caps sensitive
• use a cr at end of commands
• at end of command Arduino says "done/r"

• BlinkPin <pin> <ms to blink>
  • BlinkPin 7 200 => works

• set xxx yyy => sets pin n to input or output ( digital ) if pin is out of range o..
  • set 3 in => think this is correct syntax
  • set in 3 => looks incorrect
  • set xxx yyy => cannot be valid but no error message, no error may be ok
