评论： Mohammed Yakoob 2024-9-2

Hi,

I am designing an interface in the App Designer. I have an Arduino board connected to some sensors. I would like to be able to run the interface multiple times, but right now I run it once perfectly and when I click run again it tells me I have an existing connection at my COM port and I need to clear it. I am unsure how to do this as I am very new to app designer! Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

            runStartupFcn(app, @(app)startupFcn(app, varargin{:}))
            if nargout == 0
                clear app
            end
        end
        % Code that executes before app deletion
        function delete(app)
            % Delete UIFigure when app is deleted
            delete(app.UIFigure)
        end
    end
end

This is the entire code for the app designer. I think the arduino connection is in the Run button function. I attached a photo of the interface as well for reference! Thank you!

Hello dear You can use a= arduino(com, Uno); For example to connect and in the another callback a=[]; to clear the port for new connection.

You could try changing your startup to just this instead.

        function startupFcn(app, a)
            app.a=arduino(app.port,'uno');
        end

Now remove the arduino(app.port,'uno'); line from your RUNButtonPushed(app, event) function.

This way you only create the arduino object once when you startup the app and then after that all you do is send signals with the button. I do not have an arduino nearby to test this on unfortunately.

Attached you'll find a quick app I wrote that first finds all available COM ports. You then select the port your arduino is connected to from the list and then press connect to link it to the arduino. You can edit this app such that now that you've connected to the Arduino separatly you can do all the plotting afterwards.

I suggest you make like a button on the app that now plots data from any of the input arduino pins but only after you've connected. You can use the uibuton enable property to make plotting impossible unless you've already connected to an arduino.

Hello,

I was wondering how could I integrate this into an existing app.

thank you

Dear Asad Mirza

I tested your attached files(Arduino_Ex.mlapp) several times. There is a problem in disconnect button.

When push disconnect button, error is happend. I can not fix it.

Plese check your code!

thanks
