User:B.Osborne369/enes100/Multimeter Arduino

Write problem/project Goal
Combine a multimeter with an arduino for the purpose of collecting data.

My First Task
Record the process of disassembling and reassembling the multimeter and note any problems occur.

Summary of actual work over first weekend
Unscrewed two screws to disamble case to multimeter. carefully pulled the body of the multimeter apart and removed the 9 volt battery. unscrewed the four small screws to the circuit board. Then the circuit board was gently pried away from the body.

Week1 Narrative
Tell a detailed story describing what you did for your team over the weekend.

My Second Task
Record what you are planning on doing for the team during the second weekend.

Summary of actual work over second weekend
How is what you did different than what you planned?

Week2 Narrative
Tell a detailed story describing what you did for your team over the weekend.

My Third task
Record what you are planning on doing for the team during the third weekend.

Summary of actual work over third weekend
How is what you did different than what you planned?

Week3 Narrative
Tell a detailed story describing what you did for your team over the weekend.

My Fourth task
''Record what you are planning on doing for the team during the final weekend of project work. ''

Summary of actual work over fourth weekend
The multimeter was disassembled and reassembled to determine the best procedure to combine it with the arduino.

Week4 Narrative




Unscrewed two screws to the outer case of the multimeter. Next the nine volt battery was removed. Four screws were removed from the circuit board and then the circuit board was gently pried away from the case. The multimeter was disassembled in a matter of minutes. Next the multimeter box was reassembled to verify that that the multimeter still works. In doing this last step a problem occurred. There are two ball bearings that help the multimeter function dial, rotate around the functions. The ball bearings have to be carefully installed into there position on the dial. If not careful these ball bearings can be lost. After reassembly it was verified that the multimeter was functioning properly.







Next the circuit board, near the display was tested for connectivity using another multimeter. starting form left to right 12 holes were counted that apply power to the display. Hole 1,2, and 9 all read .3 where hole 3,4,5,6,8,10,11,12 all read .7 or .8
