Error while running cc_info.py Python script

[mgrapiniak]

I have connected Arduino UNO with CCLi proxy and ran following tool :
cc_info.py
which result in following error:
ERROR: ord() expected a character, but string of length 0 found

My OS is: Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS
Arduino recognized as /dev/ttyACM0

Please advise.

Hello @mgrapiniak , it looks like the serial port could not be read. Are you running the tool like this?

cc_info.py -p /dev/ttyACM0

Hi,

I've tried to run cc_info with and without param. Checked dmesg for USB device and it looks it was detected without any issues.
When I open cc_info I can see some activity on Arduinos LED's so I guess some communication is being done between the tool and arduino although I have to say that running arduino connected without any rx gives exactly the same error. Any idea why this happens?

Cheers!

Hey @mgrapiniak , from your description I would assume that there was something wrong with your serial port. If you can confirm that you can communicate with the serial port (ex. using a serial terminal) then I will need more information from you in order to debug this.

In the meantime, there were a couple of updates in the project. Have a look if the latest version can help you.

Otherwise, I will close this issue.
