We had a student working on a project that implemented a SCPI-ish server

on Arduino that was to talk to EPICS via streamDevice. The Arduino side

was working reliably talking to EPICS over an ethernet/TCP interface,

and I think also over a serial interface. The project ended prematurely

when COVID hit, so it might take a little work to dig it out. It was

developed using Arduino hardware, but not using other Arduino ecosystem.

Let me know if you want to have a look at it.

Hi,

So I was searching for the required EPICS modules and extensions to

interface Arduino Nano(Or any other such microcontroller based platform)

with the EPICS.

The basic idea is to make a sensor based arduino circuit, monitor and

plot a real time physical quantity using EPICS and CS-Studio. Let me

know how I should proceed with this.
