Hi everyone,
I would like to use Arduino for a project to try determine a cable's length.
The concept is to use this device(s) to try assist in determining where a short is in an electrical fence.
My initial idea, was to have two devices, one which sends a signal and the other which receives it and either display's a value or plays an audible sound to depict the distance between the two devices.
I was hoping to implement a system which allows the sensitivity/strength of the signal to be modified on site.
Initially my idea was to mimic a "tone detector" and use the "quality of the signal" to try determine the distance between the two devices.
Any ideas on how I can accomplish this while using the arduino platform?
