You can add as many timers to the window as you like and create copies of existing timers.

Timer settings dialog (different for each one of the three available timer types).

Many different design options for the timer controls (inside the window or undocked).

The timers can be resorted by drag & drop and resized with the trackbar or Ctrl + Mousewheel.

Resizable main window with timer area on top and list view at the bottom.

Sometimes they’re on the same PCB, sometimes they’re on different PCBs, it just depends on how dense we need to pack the hardware. If you are lucky enough to have something like a TI OMAP, with two independent processors, you can probably combine them, but we find that two separate systems is easier for everyone. The other advantage of this dual processor approach, is that the code bases are completely separate, and one developer can do the GUI while another can work on the real-time code. The ARM makes data requests, issues commands and the PIC responds with data or a status message indicating, for example, “stepper #3, move complete, success”.

DESKTOP TASK TIMER TUTORIAL SERIAL

They communicate with a simple serial protocol over a regular async link. When we design products that require a real time controller, we do something similar: ARM running a higher level OS for the UI, netwroking, file system and a PIC, running uCOS or something similar for the A/D, D/A, stepper motors, sensors, etc. Posted in Linux Hacks Tagged deterministic, linux, raspberry pi, real-time, RTLinux, stepper motor Post navigation The best solution is to either use an operating system designed for real-time operation, or offload real-time operations to a separate controller. With a few tricks and extensions, it can do some soft real-time tasks. The take away from this is that Linux is not a hard real-time operating system. All is not lost though, as the swapping can be prevented with an mlockall() call. Eventually, Linux swaps out the stepper program’s memory, causing the stepper motor to stop spinning for a couple of seconds. While running his stepper program, runs a second program which allocates lots of memory.

Using an oscilloscope, a split screen display, and a camera on the stepper motor, walks us through several common timing hazards, and how to avoid them. uses a simple program to pulse the pins in the correct order to spin the motor. In general, they get the job done, but aren’t exactly high quality. These motors originally saw use moving the louvers of air conditioners.

DESKTOP TASK TIMER TUTORIAL DRIVER

connects a common low-cost 28BYJ-48 geared stepper motor with a ULN2003 driver board to a Raspberry Pi’s GPIO pins. The rationale behind this is not often explained. This is why we often see the Raspi paired with an Arduino here on Hackaday.

Accurate timing is best left to a separate microcontroller. Attempting to use a desktop operating system for a task like this is generally ill-advised.

Driving a stepper motor requires relatively accurate timing. At first blush that sounds like a rather dry topic, but makes things interesting by giving us some real-world demos using a Raspberry Pi and a stepper motor. Has created this tutorial on real-time (RT) tasks in Linux.
