INSTRUCTIONS
|

|
|
============
|
||
|
|
*** *** *** For testing the hall effect sensor and correct magnet polarity *** *** ***
|
||
|
|
Connect the signal pin of the sensor to pin 2 on the Arduino (an interrupt pin). Connect the
|
||
|
|
Ground to Gnd and Vcc to 5V. Set the detect_on variable to true. Upload the code to your Arduino.
|
||
|
|
Open the serial monitor and set the Baud rate to 9600. All being well, when you bring the
|
||
|
|
magnet close to the sensor, with the correct polarity, the serial monitor will print ‘detect’.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
*** *** *** To output hall effect RPM to a graph *** *** ***
|
||
|
|
Connect the signal pin of the sensor to pin 2 on the Arduino (an interrupt pin). Connect the
|
||
|
|
Ground to Gnd and Vcc to 5V. Set the detect_on variable to false. Set the number of magnets
|
||
|
|
on the shaft using n_magnets. Upload the code to your Arduino. Open the serial plotter. When
|
||
|
|
you spin the shaft with magnet(s) attached the RPM will be plotted.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
*** *** *** To output commutation RPM to a graph *** *** ***
|
||
|
|
Connect up the commutation RPM sensor to the motor as per the manufacturers instructions.
|
||
|
|
Connect the signal pin of the sensor to pin 2 on the Arduino (an interrupt pin). Connect the
|
||
|
|
Ground to Gnd and Vcc to 5V. Set the detect_on variable to false. Set the number of poles in
|
||
|
|
the motor using n_magnets. Upload the code to your Arduino. Open the serial plotter. When
|
||
|
|
you power the shaft with magnet(s) attached the RPM will be plotted.
