Pic12F675 serial voltmeter

[chuck]

some cool projects you have there.

Will your graph program be able to plot 4 inputs at once ?

Will you share your VB6 code ?

Thanks

1) No. You need a different program
2) Yes

Sometimes I use stamplot

So it serialy outputs the monitored voltage continuously?
Looks great for keeping an eye on a solar installation when you can't
really keep an eye on it.

I have modified the vb6 program that receive, display and plot the battery voltage.
If someone want play with it, source code and BattMonitor.exe are attached.
Improvement and bug fix are welcome.
I use it with true serial port (com1-2), i do not know if it works with usb serial adapter.

Thanks a heap,
I'll give it a go as my solar installation becomes more developed.

Idea for improvement, I see GPIO 1 & 2 are free, so why not set GPIO1 as output
and switch it high if the solar panel voltage suddenly drops to say... zero.
You could call that status bit ALARM!

Or I'll simply do it myself when I get motivated
