Hi,
I'm pretty new to the whole matter. When looking for answers and solutions to my project I came across a site in this forum with a similar project. So basically my project should work. But still I hope I can get some support.
I intend to read two ananlog and two digital sensors with an arduino, fine, that should work. These data I intend to send to a second arduino via a 2.4GHz NRF24L01+ RF modules link. That seems to work as I understand from other sources. The second arduino shall be connected to a PC and the data shall be read by a Labview VI from the USB port for displaying the sensor data in virtual gauges.
In addition to reading data from 4 sensors I intend to control a DC motor from within my Labview VI and send the signal via arduino2 --> 2.4GHz NRF24L01+ link back to arduino1 and to the DC motor (I may need a motor controller).
Could anyone please confirm whether that set up is basically working.
Being a newby I am struggling with two issues actually:
1st the arduino codes on both sides - DAQ on individual pins on arduino1, in the same time send a signal to the motor controller and finally send/receive to/from arduino2, analogue situation on the other side
2nd multi channel read and write on Labview. I have worked with single channel reads only.
I would very much appreciate if someone could help me with some basic information and/or sample codes both for the arduinos and the Labview. I understand how to address the serial port from Labview to read one channel. Multichannel management is the challenge for me. On the arduino coding I see the problem with doing different things quasi simultaneously: reading input, writing to output lines and sending/receiving these data via a wireless link. It's kind a complex for me. Maybe it'll work with nested loops?
Thanks for any help
