Hi,
I have recently purchased an Arduino OPTA PLC and am currently using Arduino PLC IDE software and programming in ladder logic format. I am having issues utilizing basic analog 0-5 volt sensors. I set up the input as analog in the resources tab and am able to “watch it” in oscilloscope mode and see the graph responding to voltage changes but the graph shows weird numbers. I was hoping to see an option to convert the analog voltage signal to a numerical value and monitor it on some sort of a “serial print” like I am able to do on regular Arduino boards and the regular Arduino IDE software. Can anyone lead me to the right direction on how I am able to configure the sensor correctly?
Once the sensor is configured, my next step is to put a function in the ladder logic to turn outputs on or off if the input is within a certain threshold whether that is expeessed in a voltage or a numerical value.
Thanks in advance!
