Raspberry Pi Usb Serial Port

@shaggygi The change is for Win IoT running on a Raspberry Pi, and I'm using a Windows 10 desktop for building / basic regression testing.

This will explain how the Raspberry Pi and Arduino can communicate together using serial communications over the USB port. This will allow the two to work together in an electronic project. In addition the programming of the Arduino will be performed using the Raspberry Pi so there will be no need for an additional computer. Using USB Cable Between Raspberry Pi and Arduino There are many ways of connecting the Raspberry Pi and Arduino, such as using the GPIO and Serial pins  and using I2C.

But this could be one of the easiest way to get them talking, because hardware that required is minimal: all you will need is a micro USB cable that comes with the Arduino. By default the Raspberry Pi’s serial port is configured to be used for console input/output. This can help to fix problems during boot, or to log in to the Pi if the video and network are not available. To be able to use the serial port to connect and talk to other devices (e.g. A modem a printer. Raspberry Pi and Arduino Serial Communications over USB. The Raspberry Pi and Arduino can compliment each other. The Arduino does not have the overhead of running a full operating system so is particularly good at realtime communications, whereas the Raspberry Pi has the advantage of a full operating system and network connectivity (Raspberry Pi 3 or using a WiFi USB dongle).

  • USB ports themselves don't have tty devices associated. However USB to serial adaptors and devices that contain or emulate USB to serial adaptors will have a tty device, Usually the name is ttyUSB but some devices use other names. You don't seem to have any such devices in your system at the moment.
  • We'll start with Serial Gadget, which is the 'simplest' of the USB gadgets. This one basically makes it so when you plug in the Pi Zero to your computer, it will pop up as a Serial (COM) Port - the nice thing about this technique is you can use the pi with any computer and operating system and it doesnt require special drivers or configuration. Thx for the tips from Andrew, as of May 2016.

On the topic of cross-platform support, there were actually a few things I wanted an opinion on. First is concerning the best value to return from SerialPort.GetPortNames(). To illustrate the situation, these are the relevant results my desktop returns from the DosDevices code vs the current registry implementation:

QDD common nameQDD internal namecurrent equivalent
COM1DeviceSerial0COM1
ACPI#PNP0501#1#{86e0d1e0-8089-11d0-9ce4-08003e301f73}Device00000031COM1
COM4DeviceUSBSER000COM4

This is what Win IoT returns with the same USB device attached:

As you can see, on desktop both the current-style and UWP-style names can be determined from QueryDosDevice, but on Win IoT the COM* names simply don't seem to function (even with an educated guess at what they are). Would it be better to always return the same type of name for homogeneity, or return the COM* names when available for potential backward compatibility reasons? (Alternately, we could return both when available, even though they seem to function identically.)

Second, I did find other places in the registry (on both desktop and Win IoT) that might lead to an alternative implementation. While QueryDosDevice seems to execute more quickly, what I read in pinvoke-checker.md suggests that it is best to avoid adding new native calls. I don't know how much more cross-platform-friendly registry calls would be, but I would appreciate a rundown on what the best practice is here.
