Arduino carbon monoxide Sensor through labview

[johnde88]

Hello guys

Im doing my undergraduate project in labview ,however I have difficulty regarding to part of my project which is carbon monoxide so

Id like to ask you , is possible that I can communicate carbon monoxide sensor with arduino board through labview and how?

I wll be really thankfull if someone can help me.

Thank you all

Your first task is to determine whether you can interface the sensor to the arduino and this is not the appropriate forum for this hardware question. You should find an arduino forum and when you go there, at the very least, provide the make and model of the sensor. Attaching the data sheet would be better. Once you determine whether or not the sensor can be connected, then you need to write the arduino code. Only then do you need to worry about LabVIEW. The LabVIEW connection is simply serial and that is pretty trivial.

Thank you for your reply , but I think you misunderstand me what Im doing actually is using labview arduino toolkit not C language through Arduino

Sketch programme. The problem there is no carbon monoxide sensor in arduino toolkit so I need to do it by somehow in labview.

I appreciate your reply again.

You don't understand at all. You cannot download a LabVIEW program to the arduino. The LabVIEW toolkit for the arduino only lets you implement a serial communication to it. If you have a sensor that the arduino cannot connect to, you need different hardware.

Go to the Arduino Board forum and post your question with Board make and Sensor specifications...

Then download LIFA -LabVIEW interface for Arduino and start working with sample programs.. I guess by then you will get replies to your question..!

lool , I meant LabVIEW toolkit for the arduino.

Thank you

If I post in Arduino Board forum, I don't think they know about labview toolkit for ardunio.

Thank you for your suggestion .

Why would you or they care about LabVIEW? As I said, your first task is to connect the sensor and program the arduino to read it. That had absolutely nothing to do with LabVIEW.

my project is based on labview,

The question how could i connect the CO sensor throgh labview from arduino toolkit

[Dennis_Knutson]

You aren't connecting the sensor to LabVIEW. You need to connect the sensor to hardware and that hardware is the arduino. The toolkit merely allows communication between the pc and the arduino. The toolkit in no way programs the arduino for any sort of acquisition on its inputs. I don't know why I have to keep repeating the basics.
