this only print the data once right and not a loop? what does the .close() method do?

Hi, @FujiwaraKengo . That is correct, data is printed out only once and then the scripts ends, closing the communication channel. You could put the reading part in a loop (lines 27 to 43), allowing for a reasonable waiting time between iterations, or call the full script periodically.
