The SerialCommands library provides a robust framework for managing and communicating serial commands between devices. Designed to facilitate reliable data transmission, this library enables developers to define, send, and receive structured commands over serial interfaces, ensuring efficient and error-free communication.
The primary goal of the SerialCommands library is to simplify the process of implementing serial communication protocols. It allows for:
- Structured Command Format: Define commands with clear start and stop markers, optional data fields, and flexible address ranges.
- Data Integrity: Ensured by the address length byte, which provides a clear structure for the length of the command, including address and data.
- Flexible Addressing: Utilize a base-200 system to support a wide range of addresses, accommodating both simple and complex communication needs.
- Ease of Use: Implement and manage serial communication effortlessly with a user-friendly API.
- Start and Stop Bytes: Delimit commands clearly to avoid misinterpretation.
- Optional Data: Include data in commands when needed, with the flexibility to send commands without data.
- Extended Addressing: Support for single and multiple byte addresses using a base-200 system for extended range.
In addition to the SerialCommands library, there is a companion C# library that works seamlessly with this Arduino library. For .NET applications, visit the SerialCommands.NET repository.
