Hi...I have some trouble getting the extra two analog ports to communicate with MAX/MSP. I edit the arduino code from 5 ports to 7 and added 2 extra i(nputs) in the arduinoreader patch and added the appropriate send and receive objects in the arduinoreader/arduino2max_v4 patches.
Yet it won't work.
Could someone help me to get these extra analog ports to work.

"extra" analog ports? Do you mean the PWM outputs?


OK-- I get it. You mean AD6 and AD7 on the Atmeg168? I don't have one, so you will have to fiddle and let us know what the answer is.

You're the guy that wrote Arduino2Max? Man, dude, you rock.

Where are you located? If I lend you one of the arduino mini's, can you figgure out how to read the extra pins? I'm gonna need them for my project.

I didn't do much, it was mostly based on TOF's code! You can thank him. But hey, we're both Canadian, if that makes a difference

Sorry I don't have an Arduino mini, and i have a slew of other projects, so I can only suggest you  try this:
- add the ports to the arduino code as applicable ( the code has to call the new ports through analogRead() )
- add a MAX print statement right after the serial object, where the data comes in.
- bang the serial port slowly to see what comes in form the Arudino.
- modify patch to extract the data coming in.

It would be great if you could figure this out for others to use!

Hey, I still haven't gotten the extra pins to work...

I applied this code to my pins.c file, and successfully uploaded it to the arduino, but still haven't been able to get the arduino to export the extra data.

I added two extra "i's" to the object that splits out the data into all the ports, but it doesn't add anything.

I was thinking... do you want to try running an output over the internet, into your copy of max? (using net.write or whatever the 'net series of patches are called?)

*cough*

I applied this code...

Stupid keyboard.

and now it works ok?

Alas, no :-(

The code's applied, but I need to figgure out how to read the new pins.
