Passing ports from Windows 10 host to Ubuntu 14.04
Posted: 30. Sep 2015, 23:52
Hi all,
My purpose for using virtualBox is to interface my Arduino with ROS. While experimenting I was having serial disconnection issues when I was connecting to the Arduino by selecting the USB Device.
I would have problems flashing the code, it would lose connection midway through programming and is only able to complete some of the time. Sometimes it would disconnect when running in ROS.
I noted that this problem is occurring when I use the Due microcontroller and not the Uno probably because the Due is faster and is less forgiving when it comes to latency issues from the USB.
Now, I want to connect my Arduino to Ubuntu by passing the port in Virtual Box rather than as just a USB device.
Attached are pictures of how I setup my port, added myself into dialout and vboxfm and the error.
Even though the device shows up in Arduino when I try to program the device the error says: "No device found on ttyS3
The port seems to be recognized but I am still unable to program the device in the Arduino IDE, it says the device cannot be found on that port.
Thanks for any help you can offer.
