    value_pot0 = analogRead(A0);
    value_pot1 = analogRead(A1);
    value = (String) value_pot0 + "," + (String) value_pot1;
    Serial.println(value);
    delay(200); // It should be slower than the Clock Interval.
} 

• Values from 0 to 1023.

[Juan_Antonio]

8.- App receives data from Arduino. Clock.Interval. Arduino delay. Buffer.

p9A0i_bluetooth_aleatorio.aia (2.9 KB)

a)
Clock.Interval = 300
Arduino delay = 200

• App cannot process the information because the Clock "is slower" than the Arduino.
  The buffer is being filled, values ​​that arrive and have not yet been processed.

• When the Buffer reaches a certain value, for example 120, you remove power to the Arduino. What happens with buffer?

b) Change Clock.Interval
Clock.Interval = 100
Arduino delay = 200

• Now the Clock "is faster" than the Arduino.
  Buffer = 0

Therefore, Clock.Interval < delay Arduino

// Juan A. Villalpando
// http://kio4.com/appinventor/9A0_Resumen_Bluetooth.htm

int aleatorio;

void setup() { 
  Serial.begin(9600);
}

void loop() { 
    aleatorio = random(0,100);
    Serial.println(aleatorio);
    delay(200); // Clock.Interval < delay Arduino
}

      servo5.write(angulo_2.toInt());
      palabra = "";   
  }

Note: if you use more than 2 servos you will need to power them with an external power source. Video: Each servo needs about 400 mA.

13.- App moves a Stepper motor.

p9A0i_bluetooth_pasopaso.aia (3.1 KB)

• In a servo you order:
  set 34º
  set 12º
  set 96º, it is not necessary to know the previous position.

• In a stepper motor, you order:
  set 20 step clockwise
  set 80 step anticlockwise, it is necessary to know the previous position to place it in a new position.

• I will use: Stepper motor 28BYJ-48 ULN2003

• It is convenient to power this motor through an external source, in this experimental example I will feed it with the 5 V of Arduino.

• This code needs Stepper library.

// Juan A. Villalpando

#include <Stepper.h>

  if(caracter == '3'){motor.step(510);}
  if(caracter == '4'){motor.step(-510);}

14. Where do we connect the Bluetooth module in Arduino UNO?

p9A0i_bluetooth_Serial.aia (2.9 KB)

• Terminals 0 (RX) and 1 (TX) are used by Arduino as the default Serial RX/TX. Use it to upload sketch, Serial Monitor, Bluetooth. So when we are going to upload a sketch for Bluetooth we must disconnect the RX cable from the Arduino.

• We can use other terminals to connect the Bluetooth module, for example 10 and 11, in this case we need the “SoftwareSerial” library. Now when we upload a sketch it is not necessary to remove the RX cable.

20.- Get message when Bluetooth has disconnection failure.

p9A01_bluetooth_faliure.aia (4.0 KB)

• Arduino sends random numbers to App:

// Juan A. Villalpando

}

void loop() { 
    aleatorio = random(0,100);
    Serial.println(aleatorio);
    delay(400); // Clock.Interval < delay Arduino
}

• App receives those numbers and shows.

• Disconnect the power cable from the Arduino.

• You will get the approximate time of that disconnection.
  
  

  

• In the previous blocks observe SendText = 3, this is dumb number, when that number is sent and the Bluetooth does not receive it, we get error 516: Unable to write: Broken pipe.
