Wio Terminal With Grove - TDS Sensor​

This section introduces how to use Grove - TDS Sensor with Wio Terminal to display real time TDS readings on a line chart!

Libraries Installation​

  1. Install the LCD library.

  2. Install the Linechart library.

Complete Code​

Connect the Grove TDS sensor to the Grove D/A Pin of Wio Terminal, upload the code and check the results!

#include"seeed_line_chart.h" //include the library
TFT_eSPI tft;

#define max_size 50 //maximum size of data
doubles data; //Initilising a doubles type to store data
TFT_eSprite spr = TFT_eSprite(&tft);  // Sprite 

#define sensorPin A0 //Analog pin

int sensorValue = 0;
float tdsValue = 0;
float Voltage = 0;

void setup() {
    pinMode(sensorPin, INPUT);
    tft.begin();
    tft.setRotation(3);
    spr.createSprite(TFT_HEIGHT,TFT_WIDTH);
}

void loop() {
    spr.fillSprite(TFT_WHITE);

    sensorValue = analogRead(sensorPin);
    Voltage = sensorValue*5/1024.0; //Convert analog reading to Voltage
    tdsValue=(133.42*Voltage*Voltage*Voltage - 255.86*Voltage*Voltage + 857.39*Voltage)*0.5; //Convert voltage value to TDS value

    if (data.size() == max_size) {
        data.pop();//this is used to remove the first read variable
    }
    data.push(tdsValue); //read variables and store in data

    //Settings for the line graph title
    auto header =  text(0, 0)
                .value("TDS Reading")
                .align(center)
                .valign(vcenter)
                .width(tft.width())
                .thickness(3);

    header.height(header.font_height() * 2);
    header.draw(); //Header height is the twice the height of the font

  //Settings for the line graph
    auto content = line_chart(20, header.height()); //(x,y) where the line graph begins
         content
                .height(tft.height() - header.height() * 1.5) //actual height of the line chart
                .width(tft.width() - content.x() * 2) //actual width of the line chart
                .based_on(0.0) //Starting point of y-axis, must be a float
                .show_circle(true) //drawing a cirle at each point, default is on.
                .value(data) //passing through the data to line graph
                .color(TFT_RED) //Setting the color for the line
                .draw();

    spr.pushSprite(0, 0);
    delay(50);
}

Wio Terminal With Grove - OLED Display​

If you required a second screen to display with Wio Terminal, Grove - OLED Dispaly 0.96" will be the perfect choice. It can be used to display graphics and data, adding more interactive features with Wio Terminal.

Libraries Installation​

  1. Install the U8g2 libraries from the Library Manager in Arduino IDE. Navigate to Sketch -> Include Library -> Manage Libraries... and Search and install U8g2 in the Library Manager.

U8g2 Initilization​

Initialuse the OLED display using u8g2's software I2C and use SCL for clock and SDA for Data:

U8G2_SSD1306_128X64_NONAME_1_SW_I2C u8g2(U8G2_R0, /* clock=*/ SCL, /* data=*/ SDA, /* reset=*/ U8X8_PIN_NONE);

Usage​

  1. Call u8g2.firstPage().

  2. Start a do-while loop.

  3. Inside the loop-body: Draw something with the usual draw commands.

  4. Loop as long as u8g2.nextPage() returns true.

For more information, please visit u8g2

Complete Code​

Connect the Grove OLED Display 0.96" to the Grove I2C pin and check the results!

#include <U8g2lib.h>

Wio Terminal With Grove - GPS Sensor​

This section introduces how to use Grove - GPS Sensor with Wio Terminal for obtaining real-time GPS information. The sensor itself outputs NMEA GPS data which we will use the TinyGPSPlus library to parse the data to readable information.
