Real Time Clock (RTC) con DS1302 ed Arduino

L'Arduino ha un orologio interno ma non ha una batteria interna per cui quando si spenge l'alimentazione si perdono le informazioni sul tempo

Per supplire a questa funzione si puo' accoppiare un circiuto esterno di RTC (Real Time Clcok) basata sull'integrato DS1302.In commercio esistono delle schedine che integrano il DS1302 e le connessioni di  base.
Si faccia presente che il nome dei piedini (ma non la funzione)puo' cambiare per cui le indicazioni presenti sulle foto possono non corrispondere a tutte le schede DS1302 (in particolare il pin Reset si puo' chiamare Chip Enable)

I collegamenti con la Arduino sono

SCLK_PIN   6    // Pin Digitale 6  Serial Clock
IO_PIN     7    // Pin Digitale 7  Data I/O
CE_PIN     8    // Pin Digitale 8  Chip Enable

in piu' si devono inserire i due cavi di alimentazione



lo sketch, ripreso direttamente dal Playground di Arduino, non e' banale ma funziona molto bene

#include <Wire.h>

// DS1302 RTC
// ----------
//
// Open Source / Public Domain
//
// Version 1
//     By arduino.cc user "Krodal".
//     June 2012
//     Using Arduino 1.0.1
// Version 2
//     By arduino.cc user "Krodal"
//     March 2013
//     Using Arduino 1.0.3, 1.5.2
//     The code is no longer compatible with older versions.
//     Added bcd2bin, bin2bcd_h, bin2bcd_l
//     A few minor changes.
//
//
// Documentation: datasheet
//
// The DS1302 uses a 3-wire interface:
//    - bidirectional data.
//    - clock
//    - chip select
// It is not I2C, not OneWire, and not SPI.
// So the standard libraries can not be used.
// Even the shiftOut() function is not used, since it
// could be too fast (it might be slow enough,
// but that's not certain).
//
// I wrote my own interface code according to the datasheet.
// Any three pins of the Arduino can be used.
//   See the first defines below this comment,
//   to set your own pins.
//
// The "Chip Enable" pin was called "/Reset" before.
//
// The chip has internal pull-down registers.
// This keeps the chip disabled, even if the pins of
// the Arduino are floating.
//
//
// Range
// -----
//      seconds : 00-59
//      minutes : 00-59
//      hour    : 1-12 or 0-23
//      date    : 1-31
//      month   : 1-12
//      day     : 1-7
//      year    : 00-99
//
//
// Burst mode
// ----------
// In burst mode, all the clock data is read at once.
// This is to prevent a rollover of a digit during reading.
// The read data is from an internal buffer.
//
// The burst registers are commands, rather than addresses.
// Clock Data Read in Burst Mode
//    Start by writing 0xBF (as the address),
//    after that: read clock data
// Clock Data Write in Burst Mode
//    Start by writing 0xBE (as the address),
//    after that: write clock data
// Ram Data Read in Burst Mode
//    Start by writing 0xFF (as the address),
//    after that: read ram data
// Ram Data Write in Burst Mode
//    Start by writing 0xFE (as the address),
//    after that: write ram data
//
//
// Ram
// ---
// The DS1302 has 31 of ram, which can be used to store data.
// The contents will be lost if the Arduino is off,
// and the backup battery gets empty.
// It is better to store data in the EEPROM of the Arduino.
// The burst read or burst write for ram is not implemented
// in this code.
//
//
// Trickle charge
// --------------
// The DS1302 has a build-in trickle charger.
// That can be used for example with a lithium battery
// or a supercap.
// Using the trickle charger has not been implemented
// in this code.
//

Rele' su Arduino

Come indicato in un precedente post non e' banalissimo applicare un rele' direttamente ad una Arduino
In commercio esistono delle schedine con integrato un rele'  che funzionano con Arduino ad un costo peraltro inferiore all'acquisto di un singolo rele'



Il programma per pilotare il rele' e' identico all'esempio Blink della IDE di Arduino
In pratica si deve connettere tre cavi: VCC, GND in  modo ovvio mentre il cavo Signale si connette ad un pin digitale (nell'esempio al Pin Digitale 1)



---------------------------------------------------------------
void setup(){
  pinMode(1,OUTPUT);
}

void loop(){
  digitalWrite(1,HIGH);
  delay(1000);
  digitalWrite(1,LOW);
  delay(1000); 
}

LCD su Arduino

Per questa prova ho utilizzato un display LCD di 16 caratteri su due righe che ha connessione I2C
In realta' confrontando la foto in basso si osserva come il display LCD standard e quello I2C sono sostanzialmente uguali a meno della piccola schedina rossa che e' aggiunta nella versione I2C

In alto display con connessione standard, in basso I2C

La connessione del modello I2C avviene come al solito ai contatti SDA,SCL, VCC e GND (Pin 4, Pin5 rispettivamente per SDA ed SDC su Arduino Uno)


Per utilizzare questo componente con Arduino e' sufficiente utilizzare la libreria LiquidCrystal_I2C (attenzione ne esistono differenti versioni a seconda del controller I2C montato sul display, ho fatto diverse prove prima di trovare la versione giusta che per me e' stata questa, in caso di problemi con la libreria lo schermo lampeggia o mostra una sola riga di caratteri a blocco)

I comandi sono piuttosto limitati e semplici (per esempio SetCursor manda il cursore ad una determinata coordinata dello schermo)

Un difettto che ho potuto verificare e' il tempo di refresh piuttosto lungo del display (al di sotto dei 500 millisecondi i caratteri flickerano in modo vistoso e fastidioso)

----------------------------------------------------------------------
#include <Wire.h>
#include <LiquidCrystal_I2C.h>

LiquidCrystal_I2C lcd(0x27,16,2);  // set the LCD address to 0x27 for a 16 chars and 2 line display

void setup()
{
  lcd.init();                      // initialize the lcd


 /lcd.backlight();
  lcd.print("Hello, Luca");
}

void loop()
{
}

Installare Arduino IDE su Debian

UPDATE
-------------------------------------------------------
Soluzione ultrarapida per Debian Testing
apt-get install arduino

al momento della scrittura il pacchetto corrisponde ad Arduino IDE 1.0.1 mentre sul sito
Arduino l'ultima stable e' 1.0.4
-------------------------------------------------------

Dato che era un po' di tempo che non giocavo piu' con Arduino ho dovuto reinstallare tutto il sistema di sviluppo sulla mia Debian Box


supponendo di avere gia' Java configurato e' sufficiente digitare
apt-get install openjdk-6-jre gcc-avr avr-libc avrdude

per poter compilare i programmi.
A questo punto si puo' scaricare e decomprimere il pacchetto della IDE di Arduino per iniziare a programmare.

Una accortezza: per problemi di permessi non e' possibile di default effettuare l'upload degli sketch sulla scheda perche' i permessi dell'utente normale non permettono di accedere alle porte seriali (virtuali o reali che siano)
Per operare con il proprio utente (e non come superuser) si dovranno modificare i permessi come segue

------------------------------------------------------
usermod -a -G tty yourUserName
usermod -a -G dialout yourUserName


Modulo rele' con Bluetooth

Questo modulo a 4 rele' viene normalmente associato ad Arduino ma in realta' ha ben poco da spartire le note schede opensource principalmente perche' in grado di vivere da solo senza l'appoggio a nessun altro apparato

Il sistema monta puo' essere interfacciato sia via cavo USB o via Bluetooth (in questo caso un modulo Bluetooth Bee rimuovibile che puo' essere sostituito anche da ZigBee); la selezione avviene mediante un microinterruttore a slitta parzialmente nascosto sotto il modulo Bluetooth

In entrambi i casi il sistema si interfaccia come una porta seriale a cui inviare dei caratteri che corrispondono all'apertura e chiusura dei circuiti dei rele' secondo lo schema della immagine seguente



La password per accoppiare il modulo Bluetooth e' 1234



L'alimentazione puo' derivare dalla porta microUSB oppure da una fonte esterna (jack sulla destra nella foto)
In alto il microinterruttore a slitta


Pulsante Done su EditText



Puo' essere comodo far sparire la tastiera e gestire l'evento una volta che e' stato premuto il tasto Done sulla tastiera virtuale di una Edit Text

Il trucco e' quello di attivare un OnEditorActionListener come nel breve listato che segue
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

EditText test = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editText1);
test.setOnEditorActionListener(new TextView.OnEditorActionListener() {
        @Override
        public boolean onEditorAction(TextView v, int actionId, KeyEvent event) {
              if (actionId == EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_DONE) {
              Log.d("test","Premuto il tasto Done");
                    }
            return false;
               }});

Mantenere lo schermo acceso in Android


Per mantenere lo schermo acceso in una applicazione Android si puo' aggiungere la seguente riga nella funzione OnCreate
