When to use this block?
This block can be used to print data to a serial monitor.
How does this block work?
This block uses the C library function int printf(const char *format, ...) to send formatted output to stdout.
Demo
Demo file : esp32_string_processing_demo.slx
Description
This example shows how to use the String Processing Block on ESP32. In this example, sprintf and sscanf functions are used.
Setup
A serial monitor software application is required to get the expected results. For this example, PuTTY open-source SSH and telnet client is used to monitor the serial output.
What should be happening?
After the model file is compiled and uploaded to the ESP32 board, open the PuTTY software and connect to the relevant serial port with a baud rate of 115200. The following output should be visible on the serial monitor software.
