LINX I2C Problem for communicating Raspberry to Arduino

Solved!
Go to solution

 

 

Hi, I was trying to communicate Raspberry PI 3 with Arduino UNO via I2C using LINX 3.0. I want to send 40 byte length command to arduino and receive 16 byte data length from arduino almost in the same time (I know I2C is half duplex so I do it sequentially)

 

The problem is sometimes I get an error message either from LINX-I2Cwrite or LINX-I2Cread. I assume that this problem appears because the I2C bus is too busy to handle such a lot of data traffic. Any help would be very appreciated Smiley Happy

 

here is my VI snippet

is there any mistake with that? i have tried to change the delay time to 200ms and it works fine, but I need faster response (as fast as possible)

 

 

I'm using: 

 

Labview 2014f1

LINX 3.0

Rpi3 with Updated Rasbian

Arduino UNO

Hi mfaltin,

 

sorry i just reply it now, and thank you for your reply. I just figured it out. I only have to remove the error handling wire and everything just perfect. it seems there is a bug in the I2C error handling.
