Example of using jSSC, communicate between JavaFX and Arduino Uno via USB Serial port

Prepare a simple sketch run on Arduino Uno to send a counting number to serial port, tested on Windows 10.

BlinkUSB.ino

/*
 * Send number to Serial
 */
int i = 0;

// the setup function runs once when you press reset or power the board
void setup() {
  // initialize digital pin 13 as an output.
  pinMode(13, OUTPUT);
  Serial.begin(9600);
}

// the loop function runs over and over again forever
void loop() {

  Serial.print(i);
  i++;
  
  digitalWrite(13, HIGH);   // turn the LED on (HIGH is the voltage level)
  delay(1000);              // wait for a second
  digitalWrite(13, LOW);    // turn the LED off by making the voltage LOW
  delay(1000);              // wait for a second
}
