Hi there, In order to design the circuit, you must specify: 1) The voltage RANGE of your Vcc. In a car the Vcc can vary between 11.5 and 14.5 V, depending on alternator/battery condition. 2) The duty cycle of the Hall Effect IC output. 3) The current you need through the pull-up resistor. The short ...

VB SOFTWARE READS PICOLOG DATA & DRIVES ARDUINO PICOSLAVE TO PROVIDE HARD WIRED OUTPUTS PART 7 The Arduino Zero sketch is uploaded below. It is, as usual in WORD .doc format and must be lifted and pasted on a blank Arduino 1.6.7 or later instance. In the example given, the sketch handles two channe...

VB SOFTWARE READS PICOLOG DATA & DRIVES ARDUINO PICOSLAVE TO PROVIDE HARD WIRED OUTPUTS Picoslave Screen 7.jpg PART 6 This technique, which can provide up to six PWM output channels at a resolution up to 16 Bit, has been tested with the following. - Picotech DrDAQ + Picolog (other loggers such as 1...

VB SOFTWARE READS PICOLOG DATA & DRIVES ARDUINO PICOSLAVE TO PROVIDE HARD WIRED OUTPUTS All work presented until now has been tested with Arduino 1/ Arduino 1 IDE and Microsoft XP/SP3 OS. While there is no problem with Digital operation, the Analogue version of Picoslave has the limitation that the...

VB SOFTWARE READS PICOLOG DATA & DRIVES ARDUINO PICOSLAVE TO PROVIDE HARD WIRED OUTPUTS PART 5 Picoslave Screen 5.jpg Herewith enclosed Arduino sketch in Word format for two analogue PWM outputs derived from Picolog data. The setting - up procedure is the same as that already given in Part 3. By ma...

VB SOFTWARE READS PICOLOG DATA & DRIVES ARDUINO PICOSLAVE TO PROVIDE HARD WIRED OUTPUTS PART 4 Picoslave APP_2 Screen.jpg Herewith enclosed Arduino sketch in WORD format covering an ON/OFF Picoslave application actuating three relays on calculated alarm channels of Picolog driving a DrDAQ DA unit. ...

VB SOFTWARE READS PICOLOG DATA & DRIVES ARDUINO PICOSLAVE TO PROVIDE HARD WIRED OUTPUTS Picoslave Screen 1 (Medium).jpg A major limitation of Picotech Data Loggers driven by Picolog is (A) the very limited number of hard wired outputs (for instance only 2 on the 1012 and 4 on the DrDAQ, to name a f...

ALTERNATIVE COLOUR DETECTOR SOFTWARE DRIVES ARDUINO THRU SERIAL MONITOR Sketc AMC1 Analyis.jpg System initial conditions are as follows. - Picolog open with alarm lamp(s) visible on the desktop. - Arduino open and loaded with sketch AMC1.ino. - Serial Monitor open with cursor blinking in the input ...

ALTERNATIVE COLOUR DETECTOR SOFTWARE DRIVES ARDUINO THRU SERIAL MONITOR ALMSCRN.5 (Medium).jpg This Picolog Alarm / Detect system is based, as the previous one, on the Colour Change Detector and on the Auto Mouse Clicker (AMC) . But, whereas previously, depending on the detected alarm colour, the c...

MULTIPLE UNIVERSAL ALARM ACTUATOR SOFTWARE WITH PHYSICAL HARD WIRED OUTPUTS ALMSCRN4.jpg The proposed example, which illustrates Arduino actuation by a Picolog alarm, has big potential as the Micro, once started, can proceed with complex software of its own. The drawback is that this system is slow...
