The Engineering Projects

LabView Projects

Hello friends, hope you all are fine and having fun with your lives. Today, I am going to share all the LabView Projects, posted on our blog. These LabView projects are entirely designed by the TEP team and I hope they will help you in some way. Rite now the list is quite small but I am gonna post more tutorials and projects related to LabView soon. So, keep visiting or subscribe us via email so that you get these exciting tutorials straight to your inbox.

Moreover, LabView is really a difficult software and it really took us a lot of time in designing these projects so other blogger are more than welcome to share our projects on their blog but do mention the respective link from where you copied as a favor. I am gonna share the complete list here. The benefit of doing this is that it will also organize the projects and you guys can get all of them in one place. So, anyways, let's get started with LabView Projects.

LabView Projects

First of all, you should read these basic LabView Tutorial. In these tutorial, I have given the Introduction of LabView and have explained from very basics how to start working with LabView. So, I would suggest you if you are new to LabView then read these LabView tutorials one by one:

Getting Started with LabView

• Introduction to LabView
• Creating First Project using LabView Programming
• Communication Signals Generation in LabView

Basic LabView Projects

These are the basic LabView Projects. So, if you have read the above mentioned basic LabView Tutorials then you should have a look at these basic LabView Projects:

• Water Level Detector in LabView
• Temperature Conversion in LabView
• Temperature Sensing in LabView
• Quadratic Roots Calculation in LabView

Embedded LabView Projects

Here, I have given few Embedded LabView Projects which we have designed in our lab. These Simulations are given for download in each of these tutorials. So, if you wanna communicate with your Embedded device via LabView then you should read them:

• Display Serial Data on Real Time Graph in Labview
• Get Continuous Data From COM Port in LabView
• DC Motor Speed Control in LabView
• DC Motor Direction Control in LabView
• Stepper Motor Speed Control in LabView
• Stepper Motor Direction Control in LabView

NI myRIO Labview Projects

NI myRIO is an amazing Embedded module which is FPGa supported and is designed by National Instruments itself. I have worked on it during my projects so I have shared few tutorials on NI myRIO, which are as follows:

• Getting Started with NI myRIO.
• How to configure NI myRIO on WiFi ?

New LCD Library for Proteus

Update: Here's the latest version of LCD library: LCD Library for Proteus V2.0.

---

Hello everyone, I hope you all are fine and having fun with your lives. Today, I am going to share a new LCD Library for Proteus. We all know about LCDs, used for displaying data in embedded projects i.e. sensor values or indications etc. Proteus already have LCDs in it but they are not much good-looking. So, I designed two new LCDs in Proteus that look identical to real-world LCDs.

So, I am going to share these LCD libraries in today's post. I hope you are going to enjoy them as they will add some uniqueness to your project.

I have also used these new LCDs in different projects so if you wanna see these LCDs in action then you should have a look at LCD Interfacing with Microcontrollers. In this tutorial, I have shown how to interface it with Arduino, PIC Microcontroller and 8051 Microcontroller. So, let's get started with this New LCD Library for Proteus:

• Here's a video explaining the above tutorial in a better form:

Note:

• Other Proteus Libraries are as follows:
  • Arduino Library for Proteus.
  • Genuino Library for Proteus.
  • GPS Library for Proteus.
  • GSM Library for Proteus.
  • XBee Library for Proteus.
  • Ultrasonic Sensor Library for Proteus.
  • PIR Library for Proteus.
  • Bluetooth Library for Proteus.
  • DS1307 Library for Proteus.

New LCD Library for Proteus

• First of all, what you need to do is to download this new LCD Library for Proteus by clicking the below button:

New LCD Library for Proteus

• In this package, you will find two files named:
• LCDLibraryTEP.LIB
• LCDLibraryTEP.IDX
• Now place both of these files in the library folder of your Proteus software.
• Now in the component search section, you need to make a search for LCDLibraryTEP or you can also search LCD 16x2 or LCD 20x4, whichever you wanna use.
• Now you will find two components as shown in below figure:

• Now place both of them in your workspace and they will look like something as shown in the below figure:

• Aren't they looking more pretty now ??? :)
• So, that was the idea to make them look more alive. They are working perfectly as I have tested them.
• So, now let's test them with the Arduino board.
• I am going to run a simple program from an Arduino board on both of these LCDs.
• Let's design a simple circuit as shown in the below figure:

• Now upload the below Arduino code in your software:

#include 

// initialize the library with the numbers of the interface pins
LiquidCrystal lcd(13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8);

void setup() {
  // set up the LCD's number of columns and rows:
  lcd.begin(16, 2);
  // Print a message to the LCD.
  lcd.setCursor(1,0);
  lcd.print("www.TheEngineering");
  lcd.setCursor(4,1);
  lcd.print("Projects.com");
}

void loop() {
  
}

• Now get the hex file from Arduino software and upload that hex file in your Proteus software.
• After uploading the hex file, run your simulation and if everything goes fine then it will look like something as shown in the below figure:

• Now you can see both are working correctly. Now you can use them like normal LCDs but with a more realistic look.

So, that's all for today. I hope you guys will enjoy this New LCD Library for Proteus. Moreover, you should have a look at this tutorial where I have used this LCD Proteus Library, named: Display ADC value on LCD using Arduino. So, will meet you guys in the next tutorial soon. Take care and have fun !!! :)
