simulate arduino serial monitor

Solved!
Go to solution

object : Simulate Arduino's serial monitor on Lab view 

problem : I'm working on a graduation project of Interfacing load cell and arduino 
I'm using an amplifier to the load cell signal, so I've to load the amp code to the arduino 
everything is good with the serial monitor and I get the readings I'm seeking. 



Can I simulate these reading on Lab view for further analysis ? 
Thanks

I don't know what you mean by simulate but you can certainly read the arduino. Do a search for the LIFA toolkit or just use the VISA serial functions. There have been numerous posts on this subject and a dedicated community board.

You need to scroll the output. Here is the simple one

 

1. Right click on string indicator

2. Create property node for the same

3. go to Text -> scroll position

4. Wire +infinity.

One more thing guys 
I want to calibrate the reading I'm getting from the string so I can represent it on graph or numeric indicator 
I got the calibration equation 
but the string to path array and the unsigned byte array is not working any help
