Hi,
I'm new to both Labview and Arduino but my project consists in displaying the distance measured by one SRF05 (firstly I'll try with one sensor but then at the end I have 4 SRF05!)
I found a similar topic on the website and there were these questions so I think it might help anyone who would like to answer me :
- What version of LIFA are you using? I have no LIFA for now. What should I do?
- What version of LabVIEW are you using? Labview 7.1
- What version of the Arduino IDE are you using? Arduino 1.0.6
- What mode does the sensor is running in? The sensor is running in mode with 4 wires : +5V, ground, trigger and echo
My code is :
#define ECHOPIN 2 // Pin to receive echo pulse
#define TRIGPIN 3 // Pin to send trigger pulse
void setup(){
Serial.begin(9600);
pinMode(ECHOPIN, INPUT);
pinMode(TRIGPIN, OUTPUT);
pinMode(5,OUTPUT);
digitalWrite(5, HIGH); // I supply my sensors with outputs of the Arduino in order to let the other 3 sensors OFF and consume less // when one sensor is already measuring
}
void loop(){
digitalWrite(TRIGPIN, LOW); // Set the trigger pin to low for 2uS
delayMicroseconds(2);
digitalWrite(TRIGPIN, HIGH); // Send a 10uS high to trigger ranging
delayMicroseconds(10);
digitalWrite(TRIGPIN, LOW); // Send pin low again
float distance = pulseIn(ECHOPIN, HIGH); // Read in times pulse
distance= distance/58; // Calculate distance from time of pulse
Serial.println(distance);
delay(50); // Wait 50mS before next ranging
}
The fact is that I just begin in Labview so I would like to know if something already exists for my request and if so, can anyone provide me with something please, in order to getting started?
I hope what I tried to describe is clear and that someone will be able to help.
Thank you very much!!
