Revision as of 16:51, 28 March 2023
First Lesson
- Video 1 - Introduction to the Solar PV with Battery Storage project Solar PV Intro
- Video 2 - YouTube video showing how the Raspberry Pi and Arduino can communicate using (USB) serial communications Serial Communication between Raspberry Pi and Arduino.
- The video is actually embedded in this site - but use the video above Raspberry Pi Arduino Serial communication
- Serial communication will be important in gathering data from the Solar PV system so that system performance can be monitored.
- Serial communication is also used to configure the different components of the Solar PV system.
Materials
- Access to the internet (YouTube)
- Arduino Uno
- Raspberry Pi
- Serial cable (USB Type A to Type Mini-B) to connect the Raspberry Pi to the Arduino Uno
