Menu library remote connectivity tutorial
TcMenu has considerable out of the box remote connectivity on both Arduino and mbed. With support for Ethernet2 library, UipEthernet library, ESP8266 WiFi, ESP32 WiFi and Serial (including Bluetooth Serial) to name a few connectors. Please pay close attention to the following classes in the reference documentation as they are mentioned frequently here: BaseRemoteServerConnection in reference docs TcMenuRemoteService in reference docs...
Connect to a remote server plug-in for tcMenu library
In this guide we show how to setup and use the remote server communication plugin for tcMenu. This plugin allows you to reverse the normal connection direction, and have the API side be a server accepting connections from devices. You simply configure the address and port that the connector should connect with, and ensure there is an API listening at the...
Menu In Menu support for embedded Java on Linux / Raspberry PI
You can combine many menu structures from different devices into a single menu, this works by each remote menu being represented by a object being associated with a and a . It maps the remote menu into an unused ID range on the local device and even handles dialog commands. Available from version 2.3 of tcMenu Designer and API....
Control menus with embedCONTROL.JS from a webserver
Available from 2.3 onwards. On larger embedded devices you can serve up embedCONTROL.JS from a web browser. It allows you to remotely control and monitor the menu items from a web page on any device that can run a web browser. It is a single page web application based on React.JS. It supports the most important functions from the full embedCONTROL...
Embedded Java ethernet, WiFi and Serial plugin
In this guide we show how to setup and use the embedded Java remote plugin to allow embedCONTROL connections to a Raspberry PI or other embedded Linux board. Back to tcMenu main page
SimHub connector for tcMenu library
We have a remote control driver for tcMenu that can be configured to easily work with SimHub dash . It requires at least 1.5.0 of tcMenu, and a version of SimHub that supports custom serial devices . We only recommend this integration for intermediate to advanced Arduino users, it requires a greater understanding of the underlying system to set it up....
Ethernet2, UipEthernet, Stm32Ethernet remote plug-in for tcMenu library
In this guide we show how to setup and use the ethernet plugin for Ethernet2, UipEthernet, Stm32Ethernet libraries. This plug-in works with Ethernet shields and many ethernet modules available for Arduino. For a general overview on remotely controlling and monitoring see controlling embedded apps with embedCONTROL . IMPORTANT: It is your responsibility to configure and initialise the Ethernet adapter before...
Serial remote plug-in for tcMenu library
In this guide we show how to setup and use the serial communication remote plugin for tcMenu. It is a general purpose Serial plugin that has been tested with both USBSerial and Bluetooth on a number of different devices. Serial is probably about the easiest remote to set up in terms of hardware and software. Nearly all Arduino boards have a...
ESP8266 / ESP32 WiFi remote plug-in for tcMenu library
In this guide we show how to setup and use the ESP8266 / ESP32 Wifi remote plugin for use in the menu library. This plug-in works with most ESP boards. ESP WiFi is quite easy to set up as it's built into the device. However, when using any ESP board and ESP8266 especially you must make sure that you frequently yield...
tcMenu - Java API to Arduino for remote menu control
Introduction - Java Remote control The Java API contains domain and state objects that represent the items in your application along with the current value of that item. Whether used locally or remotely you use a menu tree to represent items. Whichever way, the menu structure accurately represents the structure in designer, because the Arduino embedded menu designer uses this...
