Hi, I am using the TSF86Y100D sensor to create a code to do something along the line of:
Collect temperature readings constantly while arduino (uno r4 minima) is running, and when the liquid level reaches a certain threshold (red line in image), notify system/user until liquid level decreases below threshold.
My sensor has 4 wires total (2 for thermistor, 2 for switch), and I am confused to how to wire and sequence it on the bread board. Can I plug one of the switch wires directly into the 5v power source, or does it need to go through a resistor? Also, I would love some pointers to write code to perform the function listed above.
Thank you so much for helping me out!
