SHOW - how to interact with buttons?

[momoparis30]

Hello,

I am using and modifying SHOWtime ( https://github.com/Matoking/SHOWtime) and hoping to fork it... but i have no idea on how to interact with the buttons or leds.

I understand Python, but i have no experience in Arduino.. or interacting through serial port.

Do you have any ideas of where i can start?

Many thanks

Hello again,

i found how to read the serial data coming from the SHOW.

But i don't see any message coming when i push a button.

I saw this was posted but it's all in C.

What's the logic? i have to query the show to see the state of the button?

Any information is welcome.

Hi,

To read the Button state on your PC, you need to add a few lines in Arduino code.
I think the easiest way to do it is that you use "Serial.print" API.

For example, you can add the "Serial.print("btn1")" line into the Releases routine.

When you release the button, you can receive the "btn1" serial data from your ODROID-SHOW.

Please refer to this page how to upload a firmware to ODROID-SHOW.
