Wideband Voltage Display

This project consists of an Arduino sketch that reads voltage in (0-5v) and communicates with a .NET WinForms app on a Windows PC to display a number that represents this value in the range of 9-19

From the Digital Wideband's documentation, it outputs a value:

Analog 0-5V Linear Range is 9-19 AFR 0V = 9 AFR 5V = 19 AFR

See the WB D1 Digital Wideband WBO Controller Module (Board) for more information on this device.

Goals

The serial output of the Wideband is too slow. Do the following:

• Write Arduino sketch to read analog voltage
  • Read voltage in 0-5v
  • Report via Serial Port
• Write a Windows App to show a voltage reading value
  • Maps 0-5 to 9-19
  • Option to "Stay On Top" always
  • Select COM Port
  • Connect/Disconnect COM Port
  • Full Screen (voltage display) mode

Requirements

• Windows Application
  • To run: Windows Operating System, .NET Framework 4.6
  • To build/modify: Windows Operating System, Visual Studio 2017
• Arduino Sketch
  • Arduino Uno or compatible

Steps To Build

• Open .sln file in Visual Studio
• "Build the solution"
• The EXE (WidebandVoltageDisplay.exe) will be in /bin/Debug or /bin/Release (depending on your configuration) with all its other dependencies
  • The other dependencies are needed for the EXE to run
