UM7 Binary Parser Arduino Library

[Michael HoyerParticipant]

I made a simple arduino library to parse binary data from a UM7. It works well with the Arduino Due, but it should also work with an Arduino Mega.

Currently it only parses binary data packets from the UM7 for roll/pitch/yaw. I can add more functionality if anyone is interested in the project.

Thanks for sharing! I’m sure that others will appreciate the availability of Arduino support for the UM7.

Please. Send me the skecth and conector with arduino due board.
I can not read data for serial port using the arduino due board.

Thanks for all.

Configure the UM7 to send binary Euler angle packets at 115200 baud using the CH Robotics serial interface.

Connect the RX pin on the UM7 to TX1 (pin 18) on the DUE
Connect the TX pin on the UM7 to RX1 (pin 19) on the DUE

That’s it! I’ll add these comments to the example sketch.

Thanks,
Mike

Thanks for sharing, actually i need to print data via serial to PC , i need (Roll and pitch angles,Yaw angle,Roll and pitch angle rates), you code works fine but when i add following statements, the Arduino Mega2560 doesnt send data to PC …

#include <UM7.h>

UM7 imu;

void setup() {
// put your setup code here, to run once:
Serial.begin(115200);
Serial3.begin(115200);
}

void loop() {
// put your main code here, to run repeatedly:
// put your main codeo here, to run repeatedly:
if (Serial3.available() > 0) {
if (imu.encode(Serial3.read())) { // Reads byte from buffer. Valid packet returns true.
//roll, pitch, yaw, roll_rate, pitch_rate, yaw_rate;
Serial.print(“roll = “);
Serial.println(imu.roll);
Serial.print(“pitche = “);
Serial.println(imu.pitch);
Serial.print(“yaw = “);
Serial.println(imu.yaw);
Serial.print(“roll rate = “);
Serial.println(imu.roll_rate);
Serial.print(“pitche rate = “);
Serial.println(imu.pitch_rate);
Serial.print(“yaw rate = “);
Serial.println(imu.yaw_rate);
}
}
}

Why not connect the UM7 directly to the PC? Just port the binary parser code to run on the PC, should be straight forward to get the same code running in C# or C++.
