Re: cable for old textlcd board

The connector is the Molex 0050579404, and you'll need the associated crimp pins (
0016020102)

The pinout is as follows:
Red - USB 5V
White - USB Data-
Green - USB Data+
Black- USB Ground

Re: CO2 sensors

GMM111 Carbon Dioxide Module From the datasheet, it looks like this sensor requires 24VDC power and outputs both 0-10V and 4-20mA for the measurement.This means you can read it using the DAQ1400 . Just connect the 12V/24V and Gnd terminals on the DAQ1400 to the 24V and 0 terminals on the CO2 module...

Re: Draw Wire Position Sensor

Since it's just a potentiometer, you can just use the VoltageRatioInput mode on the HUB port you have it connected to. You'll get data values from 0.0 to 1.0, depending on how far the wire is extended. You can multiply this value by the full range (1000mm) in order to get the value in millimeters. F...

Re: hall sensor data

Yes, your math is correct, it will take roughly 24*106 hall effect "position" units for one rotation with this motor. Keep in mind that the gear ratio is actually 105⅝ : 1, so if you use 106 as your gear ratio, the position will be inaccurate when calculating many rotations. The "Posi...

Re: hall sensor data

The controller keeps track of hall effect sensor data in the form of the "Position" property.

Re: Error $27

It looks like this error gets thrown when you try to add the same network server or dictionary twice. Perhaps the 24U program has a bug that causes it to add the same server twice, or maybe your specific setup has two dictionaries or two servers with the same handle.

Re: Phidgets with Tablet

What kind of LED lights? If it's individual LEDs, you could use the LED1000 connected to a VINT Hub. If it's a whole strip or strand of 12 or 24V LEDs, you could use a REL1100 to toggle and dim the lights. If it's addressable LEDs like WS2811, there's no Phidget that can easily control those so you'...

Re: setTargetPosition Variable Speeds

Yes, you can have different speeds and velocities set for each stepper channel. You can see our API for a full list of available properties to set. For example, stepper1.setAcceleration(10000) stepper2.setAcceleration(5000) stepper1.setVelocityLimit(10000) stepper1.setVelocityLimit(15000) Note that ...

Re: Bug: KeyboardInterrupt is not called

When I run this code I get "Got KB interrupt" regardless of whether the 'open' line is commented out. If the Phidget isn't physically connected, I get a timeout exception after 5 seconds, as expected. I get the same behaviour on python 2.7.18 and python 3.6.7.
