Serial communication with Raspberry Pi + PySerial

Introduction

I wanted to communicate serially with Raspberry Pi, so I tried communication using USB serial conversion. I referred to "I tried serial communication with Raspberry Pi". A reception timeout has been added to the reception processing on the assumption that the processing will be performed in the order of command transmission → command reception.

environment

Installation

--Enter the following command to install pySerial. --Installation of pipenv is omitted.

$ pipenv install pyserial

USB serial conversion

I used FT232 USB serial conversion cable. If it is equipped with the FT232 chip, it seems to be recognized without adding a driver.

Check the connection destination with the following command.

$ ls -la /dev/ttyUSB*

If it is the first unit, the connection destination will be'/ dev / ttyUSB0'.

note: When communicating with Rasberry Pi on a PC (Windows / Mac / Linux), use a crossover cable. Since the Rasberry Pi is also a PC, there is a cross cable between the PCs, and the connection with communication equipment is straight (often).

Serial communication class

--It is assumed that processing is performed in the order of command transmission → command reception. (With timeout) --You can explicitly open / close the serial port. (Because it was necessary for personal implementation)

            #Read received data
            buff = self.comm.read()

            #Received data judgment
            if len(buff) > 0:
                #Add received data
                self.recvData.extend(buff)
                # (Temporary)Success if \ n has been received
                if (self.recvData.find(b'\n')) >= 0:
                    #Stop sending and receiving data and make it successful
                    result = True
                    self.stop()
                    break

        #Returns the result
        return (result, self.recvData)

    #Data transmission
    def send(self, data):
        self.comm.write(data)

    #Stop data transmission / reception
    def stop(self):
        self.event.set()

    #Cyril port open
    def open(self, tty, baud='115200'):
        try:
            self.comm = serial.Serial(tty, baud, timeout=0.1)
            self.isPortOpen = True
        except Exception as e:
            self.isPortOpen = False

        return self.isPortOpen

    #Serial port closed(Explicitly close)
    def close(self):
        self.stop()
        if (self.isPortOpen):
            self.comm.close()
        self.isPortOpen = False

if __name__ == "__main__":
    #Open serial
    comm = SampleComm()
    comm.open('/dev/ttyUSB0', '115200')

    #Data transmission
    comm.send('test'.encode())
    #Data reception(time out=10sec)
    result, data = comm.recv(10)
    print(result)
    print(data)

    #Close serial
    comm.close();

how to use

In pySerial version 2.5 and above, the argument of write () is bytearray (). If you want to send a string, do the appropriate encode (). str.encode () defaults to'utf-8'.

#Open serial
comm = SampleComm()
comm.open('/dev/ttyUSB0', '115200')

#Data transmission
comm.send('sample'.encode())
#Data reception(time out=10sec)
result, data = comm.recv(10)
print(result)
print(data)

#Close serial
comm.close();

You can also check the operation by executing sample.py.

$ python sample.py

in conclusion

Communication with the device is often processed in the order of command transmission → command reception, and I made it because I wanted to execute the reception processing with a timeout. It is necessary to change the judgment of reception completion as appropriate. I hope it will be helpful for similar cases in serial communication.
