At last instead of dabbling yourself, u can share some of teh stuff ere with this code..
This is a bit of fun and some research into creating a MCP interface using
-
a raspberry pi model B (NOT b+)
-
a piface digital io board (shich does not fit B= without extender)
-
a network cable
-
Fg comms via websocket
-
and golang for its channels
-
or download a binary
and its working.. Threre is no a cunning plan to use golang.. and create a virtual "arinc" can bus..
- The golang as the "router"
- weksocket interface
- udp custom protocol interface
- all transmit and udpate state on the varinc
- attaches nodes
- these could be an arduino and its digit in, out
- rpi board with a piface.. a display unit, and digital in/outs
- Basically making a sim pit with switches and lights etc..
So the main problem is how to "communicate" with Fg
- and make all the lights go on and off etc,
- and presing a button makes things happen
So after some research.. with golang, and multiple channel go routines its kinda working and being a boring olde progammer
-
on the rpi thing.. the switches and ligts go on an off with display
- and piface, digital io and inputs
-
arduino -
- is working as analog reads and major decicions
Next step is to make things talk to each other and multiplex and for that we need i2c interface, ie single wire..
- determine ip address of the host machine
ifconfig - Start fgms on the full On machine with
fgms --httpd=56789
- multiplexed 16 indicators to leds using arduino, 3 pins and 2*595 shift register
- rotary encoder to set var
- 2 * seven segment with 13 pins !! (hard way)
- The websocket and buttons work
- The config is now the problem in sending message
