Problem with serial port on Rpi3

Hello. my first port here…

I just installed my Arduberry on a Rpi3
! have a simple script for monitor 2 sensors but i cannot get it to work.

The Arduino IDE shows only serial port ttySO, but 1 read everywhere i must be on, ttyAMA0

I found a python script to test the serial port here:
http://www.instructables.com/id/Read-and-write-from-serial-port-with-Raspberry-Pi/
But that shows only empty screens.

How can i get the serial port working?

i found http://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/935/how-do-i-get-the-data-from-the-serial-port

import serial
serialport = serial.Serial("/dev/ttyS0", 9600, timeout=0.5)
serialport.write("What you want to send")
response = serialport.readlines(None)
print response

But that show a empty screen to…

Hey nono123,
Are you using the Dexter Industries Raspbian for Robots image/SD card or are you using a normal Jessie. Can you post a screenshot of what you are getting.

Thamks for your reply, but it is working now.
Strange thing was only why it was on ttySO

Glad to hear that it works for you.

We have updated the image too. So it should work now. We have added a symbolic link between ttyAMA0 and ttyS0, and for some reason Arduino IDE just uses ttyS0.
