3.2 Connecting to Arduino

Follow these steps to connect the SW-420 module to an Arduino board:

1. Повежите ВЦЦ pin of the SW-420 module to the 5V pin on your Arduino board.
2. Повежите ГНД pin of the SW-420 module to a ГНД pin on your Arduino board.
3. Повежите ДО (дигитални излаз) pin of the SW-420 module to a digital input pin on your Arduino (e.g., Digital Pin 2).

Ensure the power supply to the module is within the specified range of 3.3V to 5V.

4. Упутство за употребу

The SW-420 module operates as a normally closed vibration sensor. This means that in a static, non-vibrating state, the internal contacts (guide pins A and B) are connected. Upon detecting vibration, these contacts momentarily disconnect, triggering a change in the digital output signal.

4.1 Дигитални излаз

The module provides a digital switching output (DO). When vibration is detected, the output state changes. It is important to monitor the променити in state rather than a continuous HIGH or LOW signal to accurately detect vibration events. For example, if the output is HIGH in a static state, it will momentarily go LOW upon vibration, and vice versa depending on the internal comparator configuration and sensitivity setting.

4.2 Подешавање осетљивости

The module includes a blue potentiometer (variable resistor) for adjusting sensitivity. Turning this potentiometer allows you to fine-tune the threshold at which the module detects vibration. Clockwise rotation typically increases sensitivity, while counter-clockwise rotation decreases it. Adjust this carefully to prevent false triggers or missed detections for your specific application.

4.3 ЛЕД индикатори

The module features two LED indicators:

• ПВР ЛЕД: Indicates that the module is receiving power.
• DO LED: Illuminates when the digital output (DO) changes state, indicating detected vibration.

5. Одржавање

The SW-420 Vibration Sensor Module requires minimal maintenance. To ensure optimal performance and longevity:

• Одржавајте модул чистим и без прашине и прљавштине. Користите меку, суву крпу за чишћење.
• Avoid exposing the module to excessive moisture or extreme temperatures.
• Handle the module with care to prevent physical damage to the sensor or PCB components.
• Regularly check connections for looseness or corrosion, especially in permanent installations.

КСНУМКС. Решавање проблема

If you encounter issues with your SW-420 Vibration Sensor Module, refer to the following troubleshooting tips:

6.1 No Output or Constant Output

• Проверите снагу: Ensure the module is receiving stable power within the 3.3V-5V range. Verify the PWR LED is illuminated.
• Подесите осетљивост: The most common issue is incorrect sensitivity. Use a small screwdriver to slowly adjust the blue potentiometer. If the output is always HIGH or always LOW, try adjusting the potentiometer until the DO LED responds to light taps or vibrations.
• Проверите везе: Double-check all wiring to your microcontroller. Ensure VCC, GND, and DO pins are correctly connected.

6.2 False Triggers or Insufficient Sensitivity

• Подесите осетљивост: If the module is too sensitive (false triggers), turn the potentiometer counter-clockwise slightly. If it's not sensitive enough (missed detections), turn it clockwise. This may require trial and error.
• Оријентација монтаже: Some users report that mounting the module with the pins facing downward can improve sensitivity. Experiment with different orientations if sensitivity is critical.
• Фактори животне средине: Ensure the module is not exposed to unintended vibrations from its mounting surface or nearby equipment.

6.3 Incorrect Output Interpretation

• Remember that the SW-420 is a normally closed sensor. Its output indicates a променити in state due to vibration, not a continuous HIGH/LOW for vibrating/not vibrating. Your code should look for transitions (e.g., from HIGH to LOW or LOW to HIGH) to detect a vibration event.
