how to display the output from LM35 on pc in C#

[aeman]

Yes i have connected it with ADC0804 and did interfacing via parallel port. But i dont know how to display the values on pc.

[aeman]

google it.

Quite. Perhaps you could try that for C# code to interface with the parallel port.

[aeman]

ya well said. After doing that i came here.

did you google for the right question? I/O Ports Uncensored - 1 - Controlling LEDs (Light Emiting Diodes) with Parallel Port[^] as a starting point for communication with parallel port.

I cannot remember: What did I before google?

1. Read the data from the device 2. Format it into the form that you (or your users) want 3. Write it to the screen Which of these methods are you having trouble with?

The best things in life are not things.

yes i did that and i can access the parallel port also but i donot know how to display the values of sensor on pc??

I am trying to read the data in C and is giving zero ouput. What does this mean?? Is the power suply not properly given??

How can I guess? I have no idea how you have connected this device, whether it is powered on, whether it is working correctly, what sort of commands you send to it, or what responses you receive back. You will have to do some debugging for yourself in order to give us some more information.

Cha, as if. :rolleyes: A while back I got around to buying one of these[^] in hopes that I could use it to sample and store outdoor temperatures. But it doesn't seem accurate and it only provides the temperature of the board, which warms up while it has power. :doh: So I need to devise a way to only give it power when I want to gather a sample.

Then you need to look up the documentation for the device you are interfacing with to find out what it will send you over the parallel port and how you want to represent that.
