What you need

• T8 Lead Screw Nut
• Arduino
• Power cable
• 1 kΩ resistor

Steps

1. 1. Connect the Nut to a digital pin on an Arduino.
2. 2. Connect the resistor between the Dado and the GND.
3. 3. Download the following code to Arduino.
4. 4. Check the datasheet for the presence of an external power supply.
5. 5. Run the project and check the screw turns.
6. 6. Adapt the code to your specific needs.
7. 7. Test the Dado with different screw turns.
8. 8. Adjust the sensor to improve sensitivity.

Example code

```void setup() {  Serial.begin(9600);  pinMode(2, INPUT); // Collega il Dado a una porta digitale}void loop() {  int count = digitalRead(2);  Serial.println(count);  delay(100);}```

Mini project

Create a screw turn counter for a sewing machine.

Common mistakes

• Do not connect the Dado directly to the VCC without a resistor.
• Set the correct digital pin in the code.
• Forget to check for the presence of an external power supply.
• Do not adjust the sensor to optimize sensitivity.

Recommended accessories

• Screws to test
• Arduino UNO
• Power supply cable
• Arduino IDE software
