Circuit Documentation
Summary
This document provides a detailed overview of an aquaponics monitoring and control system. The system utilizes various sensors to monitor water quality parameters such as temperature, pH, Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), and Dissolved Oxygen (DO). An Arduino Nano ESP32 microcontroller processes the sensor data and controls a water pump via a relay based on the readings.
