Now that we’ve got all that downloaded and installed, let’s start with the Arduino part.
Jun 23, 2019 Parallax Data Acquisition tool (PLX-DAQ) software is an add-in for Microsoft Excel acquires up to 26 channels of data from any Parallax micro controllers and drops the numbers into columns as they arrive. It provides easy spreadsheet analysis of data collected in the field, laboratory analysis of sensors and real-time equipment monitoring. PLX-DAQ version 2 - now with 64 bit support! (and further new features) Arduino Forum. Download specific versions directly.
Here’s a basic template I created that will display the time in column A and your sensor measurements in column B.
Of course, this is just a basic template, which is pretty straight forward and you can tweak it to suit your needs.
I’ve added explanations in the Arduino code so you (and I, after not working with it for a while) know which part of the code does what.
Here’s the sketch:
Plx Daq Download Data
//always starts in line 0 and writes the thing written next to LABEL
void setup() {
Serial.begin(9600); // the bigger number the better
Serial.println('CLEARDATA'); //clears up any data left from previous projects
Serial.println('LABEL,Acolumn,Bcolumn,..'); //always write LABEL, so excel knows the next things will be the names of the columns (instead of Acolumn you could write Time for instance)
Serial.println('RESETTIMER'); //resets timer to 0
}
void loop() {
Serial.print('DATA,TIME,TIMER,'); //writes the time in the first column A and the time since the measurements started in column B
Serial.print(Adata);
Download format factory full version. Serial.print(Bdata);
Serial.println(..); //be sure to add println to the last command so it knows to go into the next row on the second run https://windowrenew651.weebly.com/blog/free-audacity-program-download.
Florida learners license restrictions. delay(100); //add a delay
}
Obviously if you upload this code, it won’t work on it’s own!
You need to add a formula for Adata, Bdata and … . This template is just for reference so you know how to use the program. Just add Serial.read() function, name it Adata, Bdata and … and it should work.
