Error connecting Max 30102 sensor(I2C) to linx makerhub

[Ahmedsoma]

Hi

I'm working on my senior design project, and I'm trying to connect the PPG sensor which MAX30102 to Arduino UNO and interface it with LabVIEW using LINX.

Cloud anyone helps me to get the IR and RED readings so I can start programming?

Thank you in advance.

Do you really need to use LINX?

Wouldn't it be much easier to implement the sensor reading using the Arduino IDE and simply transfer samples using the (virtual) serial port of the Arduino?

Hi GradW,

Linx is the familiar method that I found to interface the Arduino with the Labview, I don't know about the approach that you suggested could you please explain it more, and if there are any links needed to understand the idea would be more helpful.

Regards.

Hey, from here you can get your MAX30102 configured with arduino and sending serial data to whatever you want:

From here you can get your data from serial output from arduino and read in LabVIEW:

heyy

i´m having the same problem that you have, if you managed to finish the project, could you give me some words of advise?
