Hello I have used the Wav Trigger board successfully with past projects that use physical switches to activate the 16 available triggers on the board. I've been impressed with its ease of use and programming using the utility. I also have had success using an Arduino Mega for other prototyping projects. I'm no expert but getting better with each project.
Now I need to control the Wav Trigger using serial Tx from my Arduino Mega for the first time. The reason is this project has too many banks of switches and the cabling will get unruly unless I simplify. i also understand that serial control would allow me to utilize all 999 sounds on the Wav Trigger memory - and I need more than the physical 16 triggers Availabke. I believe serial control will accomplish this. However I've never used serial tx rx in an arduino project.
I would love if someone knew of an on point resourcd or could provide an example sketch of how to control the Wav Trigger with serial commands. General serial tutorials are not helping me move this along.
Specific to this project i want one rocker switch when flipped to send voltage to an input pin on the Arduino (i already have this wired). Then when the input pin detects high, to have the Arduino transmit a serial command to the Wav Trigger for a particular sound to play. Thats it. Super simple to get my feet wet.
Can someone help? I hope so. Thanks!
