Serial Problems #17

Closed porterj091 closed 7 years ago

porterj091 commented 7 years ago

When the Pi is restarting it sometimes can't see the serial connection with the Arduino. This happened a couple of times, but I can't replicate it. Possible solves for this is to use the reset pin on the Arduino and have it reset once the RoverControl.js process is running. Or have a switch turn on the Ardiuno after the Pi has turned on. If it occures the Pi needs to be turned off, then unplug the Arduino. Restart the Pi then after it has booted plug the arduino back in and udev should see and and link it in the /dev files.

We can have ^ launch as a service upon bootup if really necessary.
