Question - Your HX711 library about hx711

[bogde]

no, there isn't. but, considering you start with the included example, you just have to connect the DOUT pin on the HX711 to the A1 pin on the arduino, and the PD_SCK pin on the HX711 to the A0 pin on the arduino. you also need to connect the VCC and GND pins on your HX711 to the arduino.

i used the following devices for testing:

Thanks for the quick reply. I will give it a try soon, I was just wondering if there was more info about it somewhere. I like your implementation with the tare and power down better than the the other implementations. And I am new to Arduino and programming and your descriptions and information are excellent. Thanks for your good work!

sure, let me know if you have any more questions or problems.

Just to let you know, I used your sketch today and it worked fine for me. I adjusted the scale.set_scale(2280.f) value and was able to get the get the weights very close for test weights that ranged from 10g up to as much as 546g. I'll adjust it a little more and it should do well for me. I want to use it n the range from 50g to as much as 2400-3000g. It was interesting that the 2280 value is adjusted down to about 360 now.

Thanks again, I'll close this now and if I need more help maybe I'll be back!
