Guys I a music teacher working on a project.
I want to create a game -feel- console for my students.
Process:
They will insert their text (maybe with a joystick) in Serial Monitor and then it will Export all Text in a text file.
I want my students to write a sentence which will be projected on a small LCD (1.8") and in the end the arduino will save all sentences in a text file.
Any ideas how I can do that? I need a way to keep the text files. If it's independent from the computer (let's say an SD card). It will be awesome.
Thanks in advance!
Serial Monitor will not export to a text file.
Serial Monitor can only send data over the serial port, e.g. to an Arduino. You can display it on a screen connected to the Arduino. You can save the sentences to SD card connected to the Arduino.
How to do it?
-
Start with reading text from Serial Monitor and send it back from the Arduino to the Serial Monitor.
2)
Next, add displaying on your screen; life will be easy with a library, so try to find a screen that is supported by a library. You will have to study the library examples.
3)
Lastly, add writing to (files on) SD card; the SD library comes installed by default if not mistaken (if not, download it) and study the examples.
