YUN to other device on dedicated wifi

Post by Anthrum »

So, I managed to get my Arduino YUN to read the sensor data the way I want.
However, having trouble with what I thought would be the easy part. Sending that data via wifi to another Ethernet enabled device. The receiving box can understand UDP, TCP, TCP Client, or Multicast. Static IP addresses, only other device is the wifi router. No internet.
I want to send the data from the YUN, 6 variables, every 10 seconds or so, to the other device, WIFI from YUN, the other device will be hardwire to router. The other device would listen on a selected port for certain UDP strings and then do stuff. In this case, figure out where the rotating object is oriented.
Looking for some links to sample scripts or tutorials. Couldn't find anything relating to the YUN specifically.
Thank you!

Have you chosen a transport protocol.. FTP, RSH, HTTP, etc?

Nope, guess I'll start there. Anything else to look at? This is obviously my first real Arduino project :)

What kind of machine is receiving the data?

This is the controller receiving the data from the Arduino.

its very flexible when it comes to receiving info via Ethernet.

Hmm.. the information online says a lot about the kinds of physical connections you can make to the device (Ethernet, DMX, etc) but nothing about the kinds of signals it wants. There's a brief mention of a web interface, but again, no details.

You'll have to dig into the documentation and find the section that says, "okay, I've plugged in the Ethernet cable.. now what?" and see what kinds of signals the thing needs.
