I'm using PHP to interface my AVR microcontroller in /dev/ttyS0. I bet someone else does the same.
Here's some hint :
- dio_tcsetattr -> is set to enable :
- RTS / CTS hardware control
- ICANON mode
(means that dio_read will wait until 0x0A/LF or other control character is entered in /dev/ttyS0 before it returns reading result, when you use dio_write it will also send 0x0A/LF automatically in the end of the message to your device).
For those who dont need RTS/CTS and/or ICANON, you can use linux command : stty.
Here's mine :
<?php
exec('stty -F /dev/ttyS0 4800 raw');
$fd=dio_open('/dev/ttyS0',O_RDWR | O_NOCTTY | O_NDELAY);
dio_fcntl($fd,F_SETFL,0);
dio_write($fd,"\x41",1); // write 0x41 or 'A' to /dev/ttyS0
// Replace result_length with your expected command result length
for ($i=0;$i < result_length;$i++) {
$result .=dio_read($fd, 1);
}
echo $result;
?>
Refer to :

- stty man pages
dio_tcsetattr
(PHP 4 >= 4.3.0, PHP 5 <= 5.0.5)
dio_tcsetattr — Establece los atributos terminales y la tasa de baudios del puerto serie
Descripción
$fd
, array $options
)
dio_tcsetattr() establece los atributos terminales y la
tasa de baudios del fichero fd.
Parámetros
-
fd -
Descriptor de fichero devuelto por dio_open().
-
options -
Las siguientes opciones están disponibles:
-
'baud' - tasa de baudios del puerto - puede ser 38400,19200,9600,4800,2400,1800, 1200,600,300,200,150,134,110,75 o 50, el valor por omisión es 9600.
-
'bits' - bits de datos - puede ser 8,7,6 o 5. El valor por omisión es 8.
-
'stop' - bits de parada - puede ser 1 o 2. El valor por omisión es 1.
-
'parity' - paridad - puede ser 0,1 o 2. El valor por omisión es 0.
-
Valores devueltos
No devuelve ningún valor.
Ejemplos
Ejemplo #1 Asignando la tasa de baudios del puerto serie
<?php
$fd = dio_open('/dev/ttyS0', O_RDWR | O_NOCTTY | O_NONBLOCK);
dio_fcntl($fd, F_SETFL, O_SYNC);
dio_tcsetattr($fd, array(
'baud' => 9600,
'bits' => 8,
'stop' => 1,
'parity' => 0
));
while (1) {
$data = dio_read($fd, 256);
if ($data) {
echo $data;
}
}
?>
Notas
Nota: Esta función no está implementada en plataformas Windows.
For Windows the Example 1 looks same this one:
<?php
exec('mode com1: baud=9600 data=8 stop=1 parity=n xon=on');
// execute 'help mode' in command line of Windows for help
$fd = dio_open('com1:', O_RDWR);
while (1) {
$data = dio_read($fd, 256);
if ($data) {
echo $data;
}
}
?>
It was frustrating at first because I was trying to get my Linux box to talk to an external serial device (a PIC18F452 programmable chip) and the example provided here refers to fcntl() and open() parameters that aren't in the PHP documentation.
I finally found out what does what through the man pages:
man open
man fcntl
still haven't gotten it to work, or how to reset the ttySx, but thought it may help someone...
