ADDIE MODEL On Python Data Acquisition

This document discusses using Python and the Pyserial module to perform data acquisition from a digital multimeter via its serial port interface. Data acquisition involves measuring electrical or physical phenomena with a computer. It allows experiments to be automated, reducing human error and improving efficiency over manual data collection. The document provides an example of using a basic digital multimeter with a serial port to demonstrate acquiring voltage measurements programmatically with Python.

ADDIE Model on Python Data Acquisition - Using Pyserial to Read Serial Data

Output from Simple Digital Multi Meter

 Analyze

Students are engaged with conducting experiments in laboratories at academic

institutions, similarly in electronics engineering where experiments such as measuring

electrical or physical phenomena such as voltage, current, temperature, pressure, or

sound are normally conducted. Usually, the collection of data from experiments is

done straightforwardly. The normal process would be observing at a sample then

recording it by writing all the data gathered in a piece of paper or make it into a digital

file by encoding it into a computer. But what happens when a student will have to

conduct multiple experiments that require him to gather data accurately. The traditional

way would take up so much time. By gathering the data manually, could also mean a

higher risk for human error. The inaccurate data result may affect data-driven

decisions and the lack of quality data causes the inability to accurately assess the

performance of a system.

The scenario is dealt with by data acquisition (DAQ). Data acquisition (DAQ) is

the process of measuring an electrical or physical phenomenon with a computer. A

DAQ system consists of sensors, DAQ measurement hardware, and a computer with

programmable software. Compared to traditional measurement systems, PC-based

DAQ systems exploit the processing power, productivity, display, and connectivity

capabilities of industry-standard computers providing a more powerful, flexible, and

cost-effective measurement solution.


About python, a multi-paradigm programming language that has become the

language of choice for data scientists for data analysis will be used in scripting the

data acquisition program. This module encapsulates the access for the serial port.

Hence, Pyserial is the Python API module. Data acquisition devices could be costly,

as a result, the proponents used TekPower TP4000ZC, a digital multimeter that has

serial RS-232 interface, to demonstrate the data acquisition process.

Basic knowledge with programming python is anticipated before the usage of this

module.

To appreciate much about the data acquisition, an actual experiment is intended

for students.
