6.6.5. PyMata Approach
Uploading The Arduino PyMata Sketch
•
PyMata is a Python interface for the Firmata protocol and it uses its own Firmata sketch.
Therefore you need to install the
Arduino.
Please make sure you've the following:
Download
PyMata
1)
computer and extract it. For example:
Open Arduino IDE and select
2)
Select the PyMata-master.zip file and click OK.
3)
Using FirmataPlus Example
•
Now you're ready to set up Arduino to listen for Firmata commands from the Serial port.
Open the Arduino IDE 1.6.4 or 1.6.5
1)
In Arduino IDE, open the example
2)
This built-in example is for Arduino Uno, which uses
However, LinkIt Smart 7688 Duo uses
Therefore, you'll need to change the listening port of this example from
Serial to Serial1.
Firmata.begin(57600);
And change it to
3)
Serial1.begin(57600);
Firmata.begin(Serial1);
