Hello:

Attached is a VI, with comments, that I tried to put together to read changing status on Digital Input Pin 7. A change in status should cause the counter to increase via interrupt call. However, when reading the accumulated counts I still get 0 while I rotate Encoder to cause Pin 7 to go Hi then Lo several times, by sending 5V to pin 7 for High, and 0 Volts for low. The -ve Digital Input channel is connected to ground terminal on Arduino board.

Am I doing something wrong to monitor the interrupt events on Pin 7? Can someone please take a look?

Thanks for any help that can be provided.

Anthony

You need to read the help context of the Attach Interrupt VI or open the front panel.  There are only 2 digital interrupts on the Uno on pins 2 and 3.  You cannot use pin 7.  You would also use the corresponding interrupt number (0 or 1), not the pin number.  Take a look at the Interrupt - On Digital Input Edge.vi example.  You could use that example as is to test you are receiving interrupts from your encoder.  Just wire it to the pin 2 where the switch is shown.

Steffan:

Wow it worked! Just had to change to Pin 2 and assign interrupt as 0. The working LabVIEW VI is attached for the benefit of others.

Thanks Steffan! This has been a productive week for me due to exemplary support from TxExperts Admin person.
