WEEK 10 (FYP 2)

PROJECT PROGRESS



This week I met my co-supervisor, Prof Zul. We sit for about 2 hour to figure out the problem about why my driver not working. Its take some time, to troubleshoot all the possible root cause. At last, alhamdulillah.. I can upload my coding to nodemcu and it has no error.


Computer cannot detect USB of Nodemcu


After troubleshooting, the USB port can be read. I can upload my code to Nodemcu.


USB port is able to detect Nodemcu


The coding can now be upload to Nodemcu.

No error


So, the next task is to get the output graph in grafana and also to make this project manage to send alert when the pressure in pipeline is high than the normal pressure reading.
