Reading serial from PIC16F877

Hello all, I am looking to see if anyone could help me out here. I created a throttle position reader using PIC16f877 and I am now looking to send the data to the Pi, and store it on the SD card. I would then like to put the SD card into my laptop to display the output reading. Is this possible and ...

Re: Measuring Throttle Position

I can get my hands on a bread board no problem and will design the above circuit. Initially it was for a project to be displayed for a racing driver but it is now just to get a reading and display it to my supervisor.

Re: Measuring Throttle Position

Would any of use have code that could even give me a start? Its for a project that I am doing in university and they want a demonstration done on Thursday. I will go now and design an ADC on breadboard and with the code I would hope i could get a reading of some sort. The ADC i hope to build is this...

Re: Measuring Throttle Position

Yeah I thought this would have been as easy as it sounds. I have the sensor and the Pi sitting infornt of me here. I have been trying to write a program all week and I am getting nowere.

Thanks

Re: Measuring Throttle Position

@pluggy I cannot get my hands on the car as that project fell through. I am just looking to get a reading from the sensor to display something like this. http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=throttle+position+graph+reading&bav=on.2,or.r_qf.&bvm=bv.47244034,d.d2k&biw=1366&bih=667&um=1&ie=UTF-8&hl=en&tbm=...

Re: Measuring Throttle Position

Initially I was designing this to be mounted to the formula student car but that has now fallen through. I wish to continue on with the project so i will just be turning the magnetic part of the sensor by hand. Sorry for being so slow here, this is all new to me. The code I was using is not correct ...

Re: Measuring Throttle Position

Just to read the sensor directly and display it on the monitor. So after I have got myself an ADC do I just program the code to my Pi and the movement of the sensor will be generated? Is there alot of code needed for this?

Thanks

Measuring Throttle Position

Hello all, I am hoping some of you can help me out here. I am a beginner at this programming game. Would any of you have a piece of code on python that will measure the throttle position from a magnetic angular sensor and display it on a monitor. It does not need to store it, just has to display the...

Data Logging

Hello all,
I am trying to take the data from my 3 sensors (brake pressure sensor, steering angle sensor and throttle position sensor) and display it on the pi. Is it possible to do this and what all will i need to do for it?

Thanks
