## arduinoRead

arduinoRead — Read data from an arduino port using the Csound-Arduino protocol.

## Description

Plugin opcode in serial.

Read data from an arduino port with CsoundArduino protocol.

## Syntax

    kval arduinoRead iPort, iStream[, iSmooth]

## Performance

iPort -- port number obtained from a arduinoStart opcode.

iStream -- Number of the data stream in range 0 to 30.

iSmooth -- halftime of a portamento filter to smooth the stream of data. Defaults to 0 meaning no filtering.

kval -- data to read in range [0, 1023].

## Examples

Here is an example of the arduinoRead opcode. It uses the file arduinoRead.csd.

Example 61. Example of the arduinoRead opcode.

    - Push Joystick button to turn on note
    - Use JoystickX to offset and control the modulation index of
      the foscil opcode from 0-40 via the scale opcode
    - Use JoystickY to offset and control the Frequency of the foscil
      opcode up/down two octaves via the scale opcode
