How to continuously read data on serial port in Matlab?

Answer   Submitted by Answiki on 02/12/2022 at 07:33:27 AM UTC

To continuously read data on serial port in Matlab, the best option is to use the serialport object. Once the port is opened, read the data in a loop. In the following example, we'll assume data on serial port is a series of 3 integers separated by a space. Each series is separated a line feed (LF):

80 7 160
82 8 156
83 9 162
85 8 168
84 8 164
79 7 159
... 


The following Matlab code open the serial device, read each line and convert to matrix:

close all;
clear all;

% Open the serial device and set LF as terminal character
device =  serialport('COM1', 9600);
configureTerminator(device,"LF");

% Main loop
while (1)

    % Get data line by line
    line = readline(device);   
    data = sscanf(line, '%d')
end;
