About NetPad Android App

The purpose of the app is to control remote hardware like Arduino, Netduino, Raspberry Pi ...
The protocol is TCP/IP (Client).

3 positions are handled either as text or bytes.

The range of the values x,y (1. control) and z (2. control) are between -100 and 100.

Byte Mode: 3 positions are transfered as 3 bytes (default)
ASCII Mode: 3 positions are transfered as text seperated by comma (ended by \n)
Session inactive: Each transmission in a serated connection
Session active: Connection never closed, but if necessary automatic reconnect (default)
Zero inactive: No return to zero values after release
Zero active: Auto return to zero values after release

The purpose of the app is to control remote hardware like Arduino, Netduino, Raspberry Pi ...

V1.1:
- Changed default mode
- Session to hold connection
V1.2:
- Tablet modifications
V1.3:
- Zero: Auto return to zero values on/off
- Remember last settings
V1.4
- Improved TCP/IP connection

Sample code for a server on Raspberry Pi:

#include "stdio.h"
#include "stdlib.h"
#include "string.h"
#include "unistd.h"
#include "sys/types.h"
#include "sys/socket.h"
#include "netinet/in.h"

void error(const char *msg)
{
perror(msg);
exit(1);
}

int main(int argc, char *argv[])

if (sockfd < 0)
error("ERROR opening socket");

bzero((char *) &serv_addr, sizeof(serv_addr));

serv_addr.sin_addr.s_addr = INADDR_ANY;
serv_addr.sin_port = htons(portno);
if (bind(sockfd, (struct sockaddr *)
&serv_addr, sizeof(serv_addr)) < 0)

while(1)
{

n = read(newsockfd,buffer,3);
if (n < 3)
{

break;
}

float tmp1 = (float)buffer[0];
if (tmp1 > 127)
