help with settig Flypi up
Hi,
I want to use Flypi GUI to control my pi camera to make videos of Drosophila larvae while pupariating.
So, I won't use LEDs (now, but may be in the future to make optogenetics), peltier module, etc. Neither I have an arduino board. I considered that your GUI would make it easier to make movies.
I have disabled all of them in FlypiApp.py
It looks like this:
cameraFlag = 1
ringFlag = 0
led1Flag = 0
led2Flag = 0
matrixFlag = 0
peltierFlag = 0
autofocusFlag = 0
mockupFlag = 0
protocolFlag = 1
quitFlag = 1
when I want to run the GUI (sudo python3 run.py) I receive this message:
pi@raspberrypi:~/Desktop/Flypi-master/Python $ sudo python3 run.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "run.py", line 16, in
flypiApp(root)
File "/home/pi/Desktop/Flypi-master/Python/flypiApp.py", line 112, in init
self.ser = serial.Serial('/dev/ttyUSB0', 115200)
Being honest, I don't know what it means. Can this be the consequence of using your software without connecting an arduio board?
Thanks for your help!

Dear Andres,
Welcome to the Forum!
I think you are correct, this is most likely related to the fact that there is no arduino connected to the system. I've opened up an issue on GitHub https://github.com/amchagas/Flypi/issues/33 to deal with this. Hopefully some testing this week will let us solve this!
Hi Andres,
I've implemented new code that I believe will solve this issue. Right now the code lives here https://github.com/amchagas/flypi/tree/load_arduinoless
If you can download the repository again using the above link and test the user interface again, that would be great! I already tested in my system, but it would be nice to learn how it behaves when someone else is using it.
Hi,
I´ve tested it and works fine! thanks for your help
Great!
Send us some of the images you collect with it if you can!
