communication with Usb Device

[Yacine]

Hello community, 

For an IoT application, we want to connect to a robot based on arduino to collect its data through Node-red, 

we want to know, if the use of Usb-C (with an USB adapter to Arduino port) is possible to get this communication working ?

if not, other suggestion to make it working ? 

thanks.

Hello Yacine, 

Yes, it is possible to use the USB interface of the ctrlX CORE to establish a serial communication with the use of the Node-RED App. 

Please have a look into this thread in the community. Someone already did a serial communication to a sensor here and generously shared his Node-RED flows. 

Best regards,

Nick

If you only need something simple, you can print to serial in arduino and read serial in nodered.
If you need a lot of data you could follow the arduino tutorial:
