Abstract |
We developed a simulator for the laboratory practices of the Industrial Instrumentation course specifically for the
practice of pneumatic circuits. Simulator consists of a software developed on Linux platform development tool for
graphical interfaces PRAWNS 2.5 and hardware that has the brain a PIC 18F4550 microcontroller. This hardware
is in charge of simulating the movement of a piston, as well as for racing and the sense that were displaced. For
the interaction Software / Hardware is configured a USB connection protocol, so it had to be programmed to
handle a socket driver that enables this connection. This system has the features to be operated remotely via the
Internet because we created a Web page that will allow access through the network simulator developed.
