rs485-with-Intel-Edison

Intel EdisonでGR001とRS485で通信



1.今回の目標

  • Intel EdisonでGR001とRS485で通信する.

  • 複数の構成が考えられるので代表的なものを試す.

  • できれば通信時間等の比較をしてみる.

2.実施する構成

  1. USB-RS232C変換ケーブル + RS232C-RS485変換コネクタを使用する

  2. USB-RS485変換コネクタを使用する

  3. RS232C-RS485変換ICを使用する.

*通信速度は115200[bps]で行います.

3.想定する環境

break out board

  • henry board

OS

  • ubilinux + xenomai3.0.0

library

  • cmake
  • cmake-ncurses-gui

4.コードのビルドと実行

全身のサーボの目標角度の更新と現在角度の取得を繰り返し行い。
その間に消費される時間を測定します.

4.2.0 実施形態2 (USB-RS485) 準備

  • 今回使用する変換コネクタはCH340+MAX485の構成なので,ch341なドライバが必要.
  • Edison標準のLinuxイメージにはこれがないのでドライバの導入が必要.
  • 標準でサポートしているのでカーネルコンフィグをいじってドライバをビルドする.参考
  1. インストール場所はこんな感じ

4.3.0 uart <-> RS485 変換IC</->

ISL32603E

-半二重通信用のICで1.8[V]で駆動.256～460[Kbps]までいける.
(※ 保証はできませんが私の環境では115[Kbps]でも動作しました.).

-パッケージはSOIC(1.27[mm])もしくはMSOP(0.5[mm])になるので表面実装が必要.

6 考察

通信遅延要因

シリアル通信ドライバ

  • 速度優先の設定になっていない (setserial /dev/tty* low_latency)
  • バッファ処理による遅延
  • ユーザ-カーネル間の遷移に関連する遅延(通信データ, コンテキストスイッチ)

==> RTDM対応のシリアル通信ドライバを作成すれば改善する可能性あり.

その他

  • サーボに設定できる通信遅延時間が長く設定されている (0.1 - 12.850[msec])

==> 最小値(0.1[msec])に設定されていた

おわり
