Put it /lib/modules/3.4.112-sun8i/kernel/drivers/input/joystick/stinger.ko and do sudo depmod -a. From this github-page you can download stinger-module for RetrOrangePi 2.5.2. Serport is compiled to kernel (CONFIG_SERIO_SERPORT=y). This needs serport.ko and stinger.ko -modules. (analog sticks of Wii Classic Controller are disabled) RetrOrangePi 2.5.2 Linux are set up like there would be real Stinger connected to physical serial port. Then it converts them to Gravis Stinger 4 data bytes and sends them through serial port (physical or USB). It reads 6 data bytes from Wii Classic Controller with I☬. Stinger_WiiClassicController.ino emulates Gravis Stinger controller. Look ma! I'm driving without USB! (about $3 Wemos ESP8266 and Wii Classic Controller with Orange Pi PC UART1) You will get /dev/input/jsX-device (joysticks and gamepads), /dev/eventX-device (keyboard) or /dev/mouseX-device (mouse).

This page is for information how to connect some controllers to serial port. Orange Pi has 4 hardware serial ports (UART), which are rarely used, so one reason is simply to save USB-port(s). There can be situations, when you cannot do or use USB-HID-joystick adapter and you still need way to use Linux with some kind of (game)controller. Short versionĬonvert (game)controller signals with Arduino or ESP8266 to Serial TTL -signal and use it in Linux like any other joystick (/dev/input/jsX). If you can't/don't want to use USB, keep reading. Only manual reconnecting of USB helps.If you want just a easy way to get Arduino act like e.g. Closing and reopening from the code (Python) doesn’t make any difference. It just stops receiving any data but port stays open.

Sudo socat stdio /dev/serial/by-id/OUR_CONTROLLER_NAME

Port = “/dev/serial/by-id/OUR_CONTROLLER_NAME”ĭata_raw = serialPort.readline().decode(‘ascii’) It behaves perfectly on Windows 10, Ubuntu non ARM based PCs no matter what but doesn’t work properly on Jetsons. There seems to be some EMI generated by one or several of those at the time we activate them. The issue occurs when we activate 3 inductive loads at the same time and they are: a brushless DC motor, a contactor, the motor’s brake. Only manual USB cable reconnection helps. It worked in the past but now it sometimes works for a while (might vary from several seconds to 1 hours or so) and then stops receiving telemetry at all. We have a problem with reading from serial port via USB on Jetson Nano and Xavier NX from our custom controller.
