Gas Sensor Programing

idrisb

Hi
I have never programmed with pbasic before and i'm still learning. I have been looking at examples but can't find exactly what i'm looking for. i am still trying to figure out how i can program the basic stamp micro controller to read from the C2H5OH (Alcohol / Benzine) Gas Sensor Module. This is for my senior design project

Did you find the docs on the Parallax site? A sample BS2 program is included.

It's on this page: http://www.parallax.com/Store/Sensors/GasSensors/tabid/843/CategoryID/91/List/0/SortField/0/Level/a/ProductID/695/Default.aspx

Link to gas sensor datasheet plz. Digital output is easy, just set a pin as input pin. Analog output means you can use a ADC or you can use rctime command. Depending on the module's output voltage, you may need an interface circuit of some sort.
