4.1 PC and Arduino Example

An Arduino UNO board can be used to implement a USB serial interface to SingleTact.

The code for an Arduino application (source) and an associated .NET based PC DAQ GUI application

(both Windows executable and source) can be downloaded via www.singletact.com.

Once the Arduino board has been programmed with the SingleTact firmware (see Programming the

Arduino UNO with SingleTact Example) the PC application can be run to visually observe the sensor

results.

As the Arduino code is stored in flash the programming (or ‘upload’ in Arduino terms, only needs to

be done once for a new board.

Note: USB communication may need additional driver installation from Arduino software package.
