Turbity sensor not Working
jcry.silva 2016-09-24 05:58:44 2870 Views8 Replies I have a DFRduino UNO R3 with an DFRobot LCD Keypad Shield 16*2 plus Turbity Sendors.
I can't have it working. I just receive the value 0.04.
Is that normal? There is one way to calibrate the sensor?
Or maybe some lines on the code missing?
Thanks for the advices

If there is still no change, probably the sensor is a defective one, under the warranty, you can go to our return page to require a replacement, the page link as follows:
make_clickable_callback(MAGIC_URL_FULL, '

Wendy.Hu 2016-09-29 18:41:07 Can you give a picture about your diagram? Did you notice the D/A switch? When you connect the sensor to analog, please toggle the switch to A; when you connect to digital, toggle to D. Wendy.Hu
Wendy.Hu 2016-09-27 14:22:18 Oh, maybe I know the problem. Please modify the code to :
int sensorValue = analogRead(A1);
The A0 port on the shield has been occupied, then you connected to analog 1, but dont modify the code. Please try again. Wendy.Hu

Wendy.Hu 2016-09-26 19:39:19 The code:
void setup() {
Serial.begin(9600); //Baud rate: 9600
}
void loop() {
int sensorValue = analogRead(A0);// read the input on analog pin 0:
float voltage = sensorValue * (5.0 / 1024.0); // Convert the analog reading (which goes from 0 - 1023) to a voltage (0 - 5V):
Serial.println(voltage); // print out the value you read:
Delay(500);
}
And the sensor is connected tu Analog1 on the dfrobot lcd shield that is connected on the dfrduino. jcry.silva

jcry.silva 2016-09-26 16:34:15 Hi Sir,
Whats the voltage value you got? 0.04? Did you notice the "D/A" Output Signal Switch when you used different mode? Can you provide me some pictures about your code and the diagram? Whats more, the sensor no need to calibrate. Wendy.Hu
