Custom App for Digital Manometer

Post by schmidtmotorworks »

I would like to develop a custom application that can interface with the Digital Manometer.

Is there any information available about how to do that?

I have seen a video that shows an Excel spreadsheet dynamically updating so I guess it is possible.

That's a great idea. When I rebuilt mine I had to replace the capillary, which was epoxied into wood. I thought about doing something different, frustration will do that. But I would think digital would be more accurate, the farther you pull a analog manometer the more loss.

I am starting to test my PTS flow bench now, but based on what I have seen around here, that Excel spreadsheet get the data via serial.
I so, someone can discover how these data are send by the PTS DM just by studying that spreadsheet, and get these data in a now Windows Application, with more features, etc...

I am very interested in it too, as you two.

As soon as I get my Flowbench running correctly and calibrated, and do some portings, I am intended to focus on this too.
