Weight display Scoreboard using Arduino and 7 segment

Projects Programming
1

I have a indicator that sends weight information through an RS232 output continuously. I want to show this weight on a 7-segment display. Currently, I'm using an RS232 to TTL converter, an Arduino Uno, and I've managed to read the weight information from the device on the Arduino's serial monitor. Indicator display value and receive data is here.

The last digit mean weight is stable or not (0 mean Stable, 8 Mean Unstable). signals receive Baud rate is 9600. Can you help me to code this and display on 7 segment I'm really appreciate.

Please post the UNO code that receives from the scale and prints to the serial monitor.

Use the <CODE/> button in the message composition window toolbar.

Meanwhile have you wired your display and tried any example code that might have been demonstrated along with how to wire a display like this?

It would be best to get something working that is totally unrelated to getting the information to display from the scale.

You will have two sketches. One that can develop a number from the scale, and another that can display numbers on the 7 segments dispaly.

Combine and finish.

This will not fit on your 4dig-7seg... but I am impressed that lifted this onto your scale.
