Arduino Grafcet Con AUTOMGEN

AUTOMGEN can be used to generate code for Arduino projects. It has a C language post-processor that outputs code compatible with the Arduino IDE. There are sample projects demonstrating how to use AUTOMGEN with Arduino, including connecting to Arduino in real-time and automatically uploading compiled code. The process involves compiling the project in AUTOMGEN, copying the generated code to the Arduino IDE, selecting the board, and uploading to Arduino.

Using Arduino with AUTOMGEN

(C)2011 IRAI

Prerequisites
- Arduino 1.0 software - AUTOMGEN 8.101

Main concept
AUTOMGEN C language post-processor is used to generate code compatible with Arduino software. Two samples, one using Grafcet, the other using SysML can be found in the "examples\postprocessors\C" subdirectory of the AUTOMGEN installation directory. Two other samples demonstrate how to use connected mode and also automatic program upload feature. For creating a new sample, please open one of the existing Arduino samples and modify it because all needed options are preset in them.

Compiling and uploading

1- Compile program from AUTOMGEN

2- Open "generated files/C/Pass 2" item

3- Select all generated code

4- copy the code

5- paste it in Arduino software

6- Upload the program, it will run automatically after the end of the upload Remember to select the Arduino board un the Tool / Board menu in the Arduino software.

Connected mode
The "arduino debug.agn" sample present in "examples\Post-procesors\C" subdirectory of the AUTOMGEN installation directory shows how the connected mode (dynamic display, variables state modifications, step by step mode, etc.) is working. Communication parameters setup has to be made in the AUTOMGEN C post-processor dialog module properties dialog box:

"Only connect" connection mode have to be selected because upload process is managed by Arduino software.

Select COM port used to communicate with Arduino.

Automating the launch of the Arduino software


" arduino autload with debug.agn" " sample present in "examples\Post-procesors\C" subdirectory of the AUTOMGEN installation directory shows, in addition to online mode, how to upload automatically code generated by AUTOMGEN into Arduino.

"arduinoloadw.exe" program, present in the AUTOMGEN installation directory is automatically launched at the end of compiling. This is done with the following option:

L'excutable "arduinoloadw.exe" prsent dans le rpertoire d'AUTOMGEN est automatiquement lanc en fin de compilation en configuration cette option dans le projet AUTOMGEN :

Arduino software must be launched before compiling. Board type and COM port have also to be selected in this software before compiling.

Click on GO or launch compilation in AUTOMGEN will process the following actions:

Compiling

Uploading

When "Done uploading" is displayed in Arduino software, click OK in the following message box:

Please wait the end of compilation and the end of upload to Arduino and press OK.

If you have clicked on "GO" in AUTOMGEN, connect d mode will be automatically activated. Notes : - no need to launch again Arduino software for the next compilations, - only one Arduino software instance must be launched.
