i know how to send messages to another arduino but im not sure how to send sensor values here is code to transmit the word hello
If you could show me an example code it would be great.
// transmitter.pde
//
// Simple example of how to use VirtualWire to transmit messages
// Implements a simplex (one-way) transmitter with an TX-C1 module
//
// See VirtualWire.h for detailed API docs

#include <VirtualWire.h>
const int led_pin = 11;
const int transmit_pin = 3;
const int receive_pin = 49;
const int transmit_en_pin = 3;
int sensorPin = A0;
int sensorValue = 0;
void setup()
{
// Initialise the IO and ISR
vw_set_tx_pin(transmit_pin);
vw_set_rx_pin(receive_pin);
vw_set_ptt_pin(transmit_en_pin);
vw_set_ptt_inverted(true); // Required for DR3100
vw_setup(2000); // Bits per sec
}
byte count = 1;
void loop()
{
sensorValue = analogRead(sensorPin);
char msg[7] = {'h','e','l','l','o',' ','#'};
msg[6] = count;
digitalWrite(led_pin, HIGH); // Flash a light to show transmitting
vw_send((uint8_t *)msg,7);
vw_wait_tx(); // Wait until the whole message is gone
digitalWrite(led_pin, LOW);
delay(1000);
count = count + 1;
}
and here is the recieve code for it
// receiver.pde
//
// Simple example of how to use VirtualWire to receive messages
// Implements a simplex (one-way) receiver with an Rx-B1 module

#include <VirtualWire.h>
const int led_pin = 6;
const int transmit_pin = 12;
const int receive_pin = 49;
const int transmit_en_pin = 3;
void setup()
{
delay(1000);
Serial.begin(9600); // Debugging only
Serial.println("setup");
// Initialise the IO and ISR
vw_set_tx_pin(transmit_pin);
vw_set_rx_pin(receive_pin);
vw_set_ptt_pin(transmit_en_pin);
vw_set_ptt_inverted(true); // Required for DR3100
vw_setup(2000); // Bits per sec
vw_rx_start(); // Start the receiver PLL running
}
void loop()
{
uint8_t buf[VW_MAX_MESSAGE_LEN];
uint8_t buflen = VW_MAX_MESSAGE_LEN;
if (vw_get_message(buf, &buflen)) // Non-blocking
{
int i;
digitalWrite(led_pin, HIGH); // Flash a light to show received good message
// Message with a good checksum received, print it.
Serial.print("Got: ");
for (i = 0; i < buflen; i++)
{
Serial.print(buf[i], BYTE);
Serial.print(' ');
}
Serial.println();
digitalWrite(led_pin, LOW);
}
}
i am trying to figure it out, by reading posts and searching on google on forums but still didn’t get any answer !!
