Add-On Required: This feature requires the MATLAB Support Package for Arduino Hardware add-on.

Syntax

validatePin(arduinoObj, pin, type)

Description

validatePin(arduinoObj, pin, type) validates specific functionality on the pin and throws an error if not supported.

Check if pin D12 supports SPI functionality on the Arduino® Uno hardware.

arduinoObj = obj.Parent;
validatePin(arduinoObj,'D12','SPI')

Only pins A4 and A5 support I2C type, the function returns an error for unsupported pins 

arduinoObj = obj.Parent;
validatePin(arduinoObj,'A4,'I2C')

Input Arguments
