Hello,
To begin, I am a complete novice at using this Arduino but I understand the code enough to mess around in it. This is using an arduino UNO and a wave shield with a serial RFID reader from parallax. Originally, the code for this can be found here:
https://cdn.makezine.com/make/28/CharlieBearV2.pde
-It is using the first 8 values from the RFID tag to play the audio file.
Here is my edited code:
// An interactive bear for Charlie -- RFID triggered sound responses
#include <FatReader.h>
#include <SdReader.h>
#include "WaveHC.h"
#include "WaveUtil.h"
#include "LowPower.h"
SdReader memcard;
FatVolume vol;
FatReader root;
FatReader file;
WaveHC wave;
#define ENABLE 7 // Set the pin number for enabling the RFID reader. The Audio Shield uses pins 2-5.
#define NUMTAGS 22
int val = 0;
char code[10];
String id;
int bytesread = 0;
char knowntags[NUMTAGS][11] = {"0300789D24", "2100E0B6ED", "2100DFF660", "2100DFD586", "2100DFB1E5", "2100E0CBAA", "2100E07B21", "2100E0B9D6", "2100D82331", "2100DFA060", "2100DFBC77", "2100DFA69A", "2100D7EFF7", "2100DFE251", "2100E02F09", "2100DFBF83", "2100DFD9EA", "2100E0ABA6", "2100DFDFC4", "2100DFF0DF", "36005B7B50", "36005B7C05"};

for (partition = 0; partition < 5; partition++) {

}
}
void playsound(char codetoplay[]) {
for(int i = 0; i<10; i++) { // Make a filename from the first 8 characters of the RFID tag number
filename[0][i]=codetoplay[i];
}
int i = 10;
while(filename[0][i] != '\0')
{
filename[0][10]='.';
filename[0][11]='w';
filename[0][12]='a';
filename[0][13]='v';
filename[0][14]='\0';
i++;
}
silence(); //shut down anything that is currently playing and close that file
playfile(filename[0]);
}
void playfile(char *name) {
if (!file.open(root, name)) {
putstring_nl("Couldn't open file");
return;
}
if (!wave.create(file))
{
putstring_nl("Not a valid WAV");
return;
}
wave.play();
}
void silence() {
if(wave.isplaying) {
wave.stop();
}
}
Specifically, in the playsound() method is where my problem begins. After the 13th column it seems to append more char's to the char array "filename" after the declared size of the column.
Output:
Ready to go
030091F9EA.wav030091F9EA
Couldn't open file
But when I use the while loop in my edited code I get:
Ready to go
030091F9EA.wavCouldn't open file
This gets me the desired name for the audio file, but it does not play the audio file on the SD card.
I will attach a picture for that.
My question is: Is it possible to have it read all 10 HEX values or do I have to stick to 8? with 8 it does not append after the declared column size.
