Question: Control Open Gamma Detector via console in Gamma MCA #11

Closed dc1rdb closed 1 year ago

dc1rdb commented 1 year ago

Using serial console in Gamma MCA, connecting to the serial interface of the Open Gamma Detector is not working for me. Pico shows up correctly in the Port menu and spectrum recording also works just fine via the serial interface of Gamma MCA. Of course, connecting to the serial interface of Open Gamma Detector via Arduino IDE works. Am I missing something here? Many thanks in advance!

It appears that the console commands are actually being sent to the OGD (verified with reboot command, which works). But no answers from OGD are being displayed in the console window (eg after sending read info).

Hi,

the serial console can, at the moment, only write commands to the serial connection. There is no serial read capability with this current version. This feature was only added because of an request for rudimentary writing, but there will be support for this feature somewhere in the future. Sorry if this caused some confusion.

Should be more clear now. deaf308

Update: I added a full-fledged serial console with version 2022-12-28. Have fun! 🙂 902ed50bd1d1a3598635f02920443d01fd4597f5
