Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] pySerial and GNU Radio
Hey...
Happy to see a coinciding question in the same time frame :)
I'd also tried a similar approach. But the data acceptable on Scope sink
seems entirely in a different format, than just sending raw samples via the
File Descriptor block. That explains why you are able reproduce the data on
a File sink.
The method I tried was to connect a TCP Source to a TCP Sink and Scope Sink.
When I was sending data as raw samples to the TCP Source, it appeared
correctly at the TCP sink, but nothing at Scope Sink. It was more
interesting when I connected a Vector Source to TCP Sink (server), and what
came out was ASCII junk, which convinced me that the samples should be
wrapped around some Vector Source like mechanism.
Am I entirely on a wrong track ?
Regards,
John

Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] pySerial and GNU Radio
I remember needing to call os.dup() or os.dup2() on the serial device's
file descriptor, and passing that new file descriptor to the file
source. Hope that helps! -Josh

Hi there Gurus of Software Defined Radio Heaven,
I have been trying to get pySerial and GNU Radio to work together but only
with limited success. The goal is to read data from a serial connection,
say '/dev/ttyUSB0', and use it to calculate the bit error rate.
I'm using pySerial in GNU Radio the following way,
[...]
self.ser = serial.Serial('/dev/ttyUSB0')
self.src = gr_file_descriptor_source(gr.sizeof_char, self.ser.fileno(),
False)
[...]
If I put a self.ser.readline() in there somewhere (before calling Run())
the next line is read correctly from the serial connection.
When I connect a file_descriptor_source with both a file_sink and a
scope_sink the result is that the file contains the correct data, no
problem, but the scope_sink just never gets updated. No errors, no
nothing. When I change the repeat parameter to true, I get a 'lseek'
Invalid seek error.
Any ideas on how to get it working?

[Discuss-gnuradio] pySerial and GNU Radio
Hi there Gurus of Software Defined Radio Heaven,
I have been trying to get pySerial and GNU Radio to work together but only
with limited success. The goal is to read data from a serial connection,
say '/dev/ttyUSB0', and use it to calculate the bit error rate.
I'm using pySerial in GNU Radio the following way,
[...]
self.ser = serial.Serial('/dev/ttyUSB0')
self.src = gr_file_descriptor_source(gr.sizeof_char, self.ser.fileno(),
False)
[...]
If I put a self.ser.readline() in there somewhere (before calling Run())
the next line is read correctly from the serial connection.
When I connect a file_descriptor_source with both a file_sink and a
scope_sink the result is that the file contains the correct data, no
problem, but the scope_sink just never gets updated. No errors, no
nothing. When I change the repeat parameter to true, I get a 'lseek'
Invalid seek error.
Any ideas on how to get it working?
