Day 19: Project 2

Our project was a test stand for rocket motors Using an LCD screen, we could choose a display mode, and it would display the selected value. Unfortunately, we were unable to calibrate the pressure sensor, so all we ended up with was a load cell. We used the HX711 library for this. The LCD screen displayed the maximum force experienced during the test Code for MotorSensors.h #ifndef _MOTORSENSORS_ #define _MOTORSENSORS_ #include <LiquidCrystal.h> //Include Liquid Crystal Library #include <HX711.h> //Include HX711 Load Cell library #include "HX711.h" //Include Load Cell header file #include <math.h> //Include math library #define calibration_factor -8815 //set calibration factor #define DAT 3 //define DAT pin #define CLK 2 //define CLK pin #define pressurePin A1 #define tempPin A2 HX711 scale(DAT,CLK);  LiquidCrystal lcd(8,9,4,5,6,7); //Define LCD pins //Initialize variables float maxkg=0;  float currentval=0; float maxforce=0; char mo...
