Cannot connect Arduino Uno to Matlab R2014b

---- Preceding statement: I know there's a similar question on here, but it didn't contain a solution for me. ----

I am attempting to connect an Arduino Uno to Matlab R2014b. I have uploaded the adiosrv.pde file from this google code page (because I cannot find a place to download it from the MatLab site):

https://code.google.com/p/arduinolab/source/browse/ArduinoIO/ArduinoIO/adiosrv/adiosrv.pde?r=b25efc9ea77bbfde5af8774ec57432f23b24a0f2

After entering:

supportPackageInstaller

to MatLab and installing everything, (including the ArduinoIO package for Matlab R2014b) and typing:

a = arduino('COM3','uno');

I then got the following message come up:

Updating server code on Arduino Uno (COM3). Please wait.
Cannot program Arduino board Uno (COM3). Please make sure the board is supported and the port and board type are correct.

When I enter:

which -all arduino

to MatLab I get:

C:\MATLAB\SupportPackages\R2014b\arduinoio\toolbox\matlab\hardware\supportpackages\arduinoio\arduino.m  % arduino constructor

C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2014b\toolbox\matlab\hardware\stubs\arduino.m                                  % Shadowed

All help is appreciated!

[Felipe Berrios]

You must select the option to "Run as administrator", and the problem is solver!!

a = arduino('COM3','uno'); Error using arduino Too many input arguments.

All help is appreciated!

[Walter Roberson]

le minh thanh :

In the oldest versions of the arduino package, no board type was permitted. Which MATLAB release are you using?

[Tejas Somadas]

I was facing the same problem. I uninstalled winavr and the command is working now

[Rohit Deshmukh]

Command is still not working after uninstalling winavr

Answer 1

[Ed Hallett]

Hi guys,

I've now moved on to bluetoothing to the arduino, (which works great btw), but I have had some success with USB connections too.

I found that connecting to the arduino works fine if I use the following to set up a serial:

function [s] = SetupSerial(comPort)

comPort='COM3';
s=serial(comPort);
set(s,'DataBits',8);
set(s,'StopBits',1);
set(s,'BaudRate',9600);
set(s,'Parity','none');

Then use fopen(s) to open, fread(s) to read and fprintf(s) to write.

The other issue I found was that it would be super awkward about connecting a second time. This was due to not closing the connections properly. If you run this script it clears everything and have been very useful for me:

clc
%clear all
if ~isempty(instrfind)
    fclose(instrfind);
    delete(instrfind);
end
%close all
clc
disp('Serial Port Closed')

Other things to look out for are probably obvious, but include checking your baudrate is right, COM port is right and you have the necessary support packages installed.

[Md Rasheduzzaman]

Thank you very much! It worked perfectly.

Hi,

I had been dealing with this same problem and was able to fix it for myself. I'd like to have a solution that works for everyone, and so am trying to track down more specifics of the problem for other people. Can you tell me if you were using 2014a(64 bit) or (32 bit), and what operating system?

Thanks!

[fatima hassan]

Cannot program board Uno (COM4). Please make sure the board is supported and the port and board type are correct.

[Elliot Nauert]

Hi,

I had been dealing with this same problem and was able to fix it for myself. I'd like to have a solution that works for everyone, and so am trying to track down more specifics of the problem for other people. Can you tell me what version of Matlab you were using including 32/64 bit, and what operating system?

Thanks!

[Sagarika Nangia]

64-bit,windows 10

Answer 4

[Menghan]

Can you turn the trace on when creating the arduino object? For example, a = arduino('COM3','uno', 'TraceOn', true); You need to change the port and board to match what's on your system.

After that, can you post the trace dump displayed in MATLAB command window?

[mohamed ashraf]

When i write a = arduino('COM3','uno', 'TraceOn', true); this is what appeared:

Vendor returned error messages: C:\MATLAB\SupportPackages\R2014a\arduino-1.5.6-r2\hardware\tools\avr\utils\bin\make: Interrupt/Exception caught (code = 0xc00000fd, addr = 0x4217b3)

i dont know what is that mean? its windows 7 64bit, i had a problem first in arduino-1.5.6-r2 then i downloaded it from arduino site.

[Walter Roberson]

"In its most basic essence, Error Code 0xc00000fd appears when a program can not be initiated. It can occur when a file or program is corrupted, incompatible with the current version of the operating system, or out of date."

Answer 5

[Chanchal Raj]

Remove your Installed winAVR form your system. Than it will work fine.

[Arnab Mondal]

Thanks, dude. You saved me. It worked for my matlab 2014a, win 7 64 bit.

Answer 6

[Menghan]

Do you still have the same issue? If so, can you confirm that the port and board are both correct?

Answer 7

[Eduardo]

I´m having the same problem, the port and the board are correct:

EDU>> a = arduino(); Updating server code on Arduino Uno (COM5). Please wait. Cannot program Arduino board Uno (COM5). Please make sure the board is supported and the port and board type are correct.

Were you able to solve the problem?

I have the same problem and i have windows 7 and matlab 2017

can you help me please

Answer 8

[Justin Kirk]

I am having the same issues here.

I run Matlab as administrator. Type "install_arduino". I am met with "Undefined function or variable 'install_arduino'." install_arduino.m file is in the support package directory for MatLab 2015a.

I try "arduino". Arduino.m file is in the same folder as the install_arduino.m file. I am met with "Updating server code on board Leonardo (COM14). Please wait."

Then

"Failed to reset board Leonardo (COM14) to upload program. Please check the connection, press the reset button on board, and try again."

I have opened the adioes.pde file in Arduino IDE 1.6.2 and can connect my Leonardo to comport 14. I upload the script this way but when I try to create an arduino object using the line:

a = arduino()

I am met with the error as with attempting to run the arduino.m file through Matlab.

Windows can detect the Leonardo fine and it shows on my devices list.

Anyone figure out why this happens?

I have same problem with matlab 2014a(64-bit) and arduino uno error is:

"Updating server code on Arduino Uno (COM3). Please wait." then

avr-gcc application failed dialog box appear with error code 0xc0000142 when I click ok then in command window appear: "Cannot program Arduino board Uno (COM3). Please make sure the board is supported and the port and board type are correct."

Answer 11

[mattbrian Capangpangan]

I also have the same problem as stated above. My OS is windows 7 32 bit. I'm using an arduino clone, it uses atmega644p. After I follow the steps and the code the same error appears. I just wonder why if the support package works only on the genuine arduino uno boards..

error message:

>> a = arduino('com4', 'uno') Updating server code on Arduino Uno (COM4). Please wait. Cannot program Arduino board Uno (COM4). Please make sure the board is supported and the port and board type are correct.

[Menghan]

Hi Mattbrain,

The support package does not work with atmega644p boards now. It works with the genuine and some clones of the Atmega328p based boards and Due and Leonardo/Micro boards. For a complete list of supported boards, you can refer to this page, http://www.mathworks.com/hardware-support/arduino-matlab.html

Hope this helps.

Hi Menghan

When I write a=arduino('COM4', 'Uno', 'Trace', true)

It gives the error: "Too many input arguments"

Even though the serial port communication works properly between matlab and arduino every time I write arduino('COM4', 'Uno')

It gives the error: "Too many input arguments"

Please help?

[Martin Esteban Rivero Carrillo]

Hi Menghan,

I just solved the problem by doing the following:

I tried to create the arduino object turning on the trace as you said:

a = arduino('COM4', 'Uno', 'Trace', true)

In the resulting trace i detected a strange character in the route of an old Arduino library (Firmata) i installed before and don't use anymore. I deleted the folder of the library, went back to matlab, created an arduino object and now everything is working back to normal.

Thank you for your help

[Xue Ni Law]

The Problem Solved! If you have the same problem like me. Please change your Arduino Folder name under C/User. (I change the name from Arduino to A) Then call the arduino again in MATlab.

It is because the 'Arduino' Folder in 'User' will overwrite the arduino folder in MATLAB/SupportPackage. Hope this can help.

[ChrisLyu]

This comment is solved the same problem on me. Thanks~ I changed the name to Ardu. ^^

[Greg Heiderman]

@Xue Ni Law Thank you so much this was the exact answer to my problem!! I think, like you mentioned, the problem is the Arduino IDE and MATLAB are trying to use the same 'Arduino' folder. And when you open the Arduino IDE it messes everything up in MATLAB hence the reason why you have to delete or rename the (in my case the directory was) C:\\Users\"your username"\Documents\Arduino folder.

Just for reference at the time of this error I was using MATLAB 2016a and running Windows 10 64bit.

[abrikosas1]

Hi guys,

I have problem. I have 2014b Matlab. And I want to connect Matlab (and Simulink) to Arduino Uno. I downloads 3 hardware support packages and install it. After installation opens Matlab Window and try to connect :

   >> a = arduino('COM3','Uno')

a = 

    arduino with properties:

                      Port: 'COM3'
                     Board: 'Uno'
       AvailableAnalogPins: [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
      AvailableDigitalPins: [2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13]
                 Libraries: {'I2C', 'SPI', 'Servo'}

Then when I try to make actions I get an error message:

>> a = arduino()
readDigitalPin(a,'D13');
Cannot detect Arduino hardware. Make sure original Arduino hardware is properly plugged in. If using unofficial(clone) hardware, specify port and board type. For more
information, see the arduino function reference page.

>> a = arduino;

If you have tips please help.

Answer 21

[Walter Roberson]

Do not re-do the

    a = arduino()

Continue to use the

   a = arduino('COM3','Uno')

that you already created.

[abrikosas1]

Next problem :

>> a = arduino('COM3','Uno')

a =

arduino with properties:

                    Port: 'COM3'
                   Board: 'Uno'
     AvailableAnalogPins: [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
    AvailableDigitalPins: [2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13]
               Libraries: {'I2C', 'SPI', 'Servo'}

>> readVoltage(a, 'A4') Invalid pin format. Pin number must be a scalar integer.

[Walter Roberson]

Correct. The legacy arduino used the alphanumeric pins; the newer version uses numeric pin numbers.

I find references to 'A4' being pin 18, which is not available on your system; see http://playground.arduino.cc/Learning/Pins. As a cross-check, we see that http://playground.arduino.cc/Main/ShieldPinUsage shows the same pin number for A4.

However, perhaps by 'A4' you just mean analog pin 4. If so then

 readVoltage(a, 4)

since readVoltage is going to expect to refer to analog pins.

[abrikosas1]

Very thanks for your help. Your idea really works (What was mentioned in the request for assistance). I got a Value.

 >>  a = arduino('COM3','Uno')

arduino with properties:

                    Port: 'COM3'
                   Board: 'Uno'
     AvailableAnalogPins: [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
    AvailableDigitalPins: [2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13]
               Libraries: {'I2C', 'SPI', 'Servo'}

>> readVoltage(a, 4)

ans =

    4.9951

But clashes with the problem was intermediate station. My ultimate aim is to scan analogue input to arduino and see analog signal variation on simulink scope then process others simulink blocks. (I want to use arduino analog input blocks). I do this by the example : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Bqsck46kBg&t=103s I make first steps like in example and push run i got :

External mode simulation is not supported for the 'Arduino Uno' hardware. However, you can deploy the model on this hardware. From the model window, click the "Deploy to Hardware" button. Then push Deploy to Hardware then got : Model succesfully deployed to arduino uno (but simulink window is not in online :( ) And in the Diagnostic Viewer got :

Thank you very much

Answer 22

[Carmelo Gonzales]

Hello All,

I was having the problem where MatLab was telling me

Cannot program Arduino board Uno.

I solved this problem by turning the trace on

a = arduino('COM5', 'Uno', 'Trace', true)

From here, I got the trace, ending with

 #include <SoftwareSerial.h>

I then went to the MatLab Support Packages on my computer and searched for SoftwareSerial.h Once found, I copied the file and pasted it into the location that it was supposed to be. This was found from the line directly above the trace line posted above.

I hope this helps!

Answer 23

[Julia Herin]

After a while of trying variations of

a = arduino('com3', 'uno');

and

a = arduino();

I finally just tried doing

arduino

at which point it said

Updating server code on board Uno (COM10). Please wait.

and it successfully connected to the board.

I change the name of the "Arduino" folder as they suggested and the problem was not solved, I use the MATLAB r2017b - Win 10 Home 64 bits.

Please HELP ME......

[Jhonatan Sandoval Quezada]

PLEASEEEE HELP ME

[Liew Yean Choon]

Did anyone found the solution?

[Jhonatan Sandoval Quezada]

no, I use a friend's computer to do, I can not solve my problem

Answer 26

[mohamed ashraf]

When i write

a = arduino('COM3','uno', 'TraceOn', true);

this is what appeared:

Vendor returned error messages: C:\MATLAB\SupportPackages\R2014a\arduino-1.5.6-r2\hardware\tools\avr\utils\bin\make: Interrupt/Exception caught (code = 0xc00000fd, addr = 0x4217b3)

i dont know what is that mean? its windows 7 64bit, i had a problem first in arduino-1.5.6-r2 then i downloaded it from arduino site.

[Walter Roberson]

That code 0xc00000fd apparently means "stack overflow". However, I have no information about why that might be happening for you.
