    Hi need some help with an C# sketch that can read joystick axis and 12 joustick buttons and send them to my Arduino.

    I have used this sketch(see link 1) as a base, but it only outputs the y-axis and its sending all the time.

    Can you guys help me with a code that only sends alterations.
    eks: output = 1(servo-number),123(servo-state),

    or if its possible to do a string with all in.
    eks: output = 123(servo1-state),123(servo2-state),123(servo3-state),123(servo4),and 12buttons.


    I have started with this as a base: http://code.google.com/p/stepperseri...t.zip&can=2&q=(I had to modify the sketch to get throttle working.)

    u can see it running on youtube: http://code.google.com/p/stepperseri...t.zip&can=2&q=

    Are you using the Netduino with the .NET micro-framework or the original Arduino and the supplied IDE?

    If you are using the original, it isn't actually C# you write the sketch with, (it is similiar)

    im using the Arduino Uno.

    Im only hoping to use C# to read data from the USB Joystick that is connected to my laptop, then transfere it to my arduino on a different USB port.
    on my arduino Im using a arduino sketch that is in c+, and that end is working=)

    I need the c# sketch to look for alterations on the joystick and output new values as this:

    255(start),1(servo#),100(servo position)
    255,2,100
    255,3,025
    255,1,040
    255,1,130

    I think this is the best way of sending serial data to the arduino card?

    The Microsoft Robotics - Community Forum may be a better place for you to get specific advices in, I think.
    Please repost your thread there for better support.
    Then I will move your thread into the Off-topic Forum shortly, thanks.
