Sample Arduino Code
// Define pin connections
const int pressurePin = A0; // Analog input for pressure sensor
const int humidifierPin = 7; // Digital output for humidifier control
void setup() {
Serial.begin(9600); // Initialize serial communication
pinMode(humidifierPin, OUTPUT); // Set humidifier pin as output
}
void loop() {
int pressureValue = analogRead(pressurePin); // Read pressure sensor value
float pressure = (pressureValue / 1023.0) * 20.0; // Convert to cm H2O
Serial.print("Pressure: ");
Serial.print(pressure);
Serial.println(" cm H2O");
// Example: Turn on humidifier if pressure is below 10 cm H2O
if (pressure < 10.0) {
digitalWrite(humidifierPin, HIGH); // Turn on humidifier
} else {
digitalWrite(humidifierPin, LOW); // Turn off humidifier
}
delay(1000); // Wait for 1 second before next reading
