# USAGE
|
|
#
|
|
# Connect the Flow meter to Port 2 on the GrovePi. The flow meter only works on that port
|
|
|
|
# You can send 'run_in_bk=1' as a parameter, e.g. grovepi.flowRead(run_in_bk=1) to run the flow meter code in the background on the GrovePi. This allows you to use other functions such as digitalRead to run with the flow meter read running in the background
|
|
#
|
|
# Since the flow meter uses interrupts, it is better to disable it once you are done using it
|
|
# The flow sensor readings are updated once every 2 seconds on the firmware
|
|
|
|
import time
|
|
import grovepi
|
|
|
|
print("Reading from the Flow meter")
|
|
|
|
# default pin is 2 and default update period is 2000 ms
|
|
grovepi.flowEnable()
|
|
|
|
time_to_run = 10 # 10 seconds
|
|
start = time.time() # current time in seconds
|
|
old_val = 0
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
# defaults to pin 2
|
|

|
|
if old_val != new_val:
|
|
print("{:3d} L/h".format(new_val))
|
|
old_val = new_val
|

# and disable the interrupt on pin 2
