无法从 Arduino 代码到 LCD 的 output 电压

Question

Ok, SO I am trying to create a UV meter and output a UV index to a Nokia 5110 LCD. I am using an arduino Nano. Have a GY 8511 UV Sensor that I need to output the voltage and use the If/esle string at the end to output the UV index onto the diplay.

Currently I am outputting these values to the serial monitor so I can see what the code and sensor is seeing.

Serial.print("output: ");
  Serial.print(refLevel);

  Serial.print("ML8511 output: ");
  Serial.print(uvLevel);

  Serial.print(" / ML8511 voltage: ");
  Serial.print(outputVoltage);

  Serial.print(" / UV Intensity (mW/cm^2): ");
  Serial.print(uvIntensity);

The one that I want to use in the If/else string at the end is the "ML8511 voltage"; this is a voltage from 1.00v-3.3v

Currently the code has voltage as what is being compared and output the UV Index but that is not the value I need. I want to compare the values that are being output by

  Serial.print(" / ML8511 voltage: ");
  Serial.print(outputVoltage);

I have tried to change "Voltage" to "outputVoltage", "UVlevel" I have tried to move the math to before that string... Im kinda lost at this point

Here is the code... Its a mess, I know, I am not a code person and I am struggling through this trying to get this to work so please try to be nice...

Hopefully you guys can help me out and its a simple fix.

Answer 1

So I got the correct output to work... Not sure what clicked, and I thought that I was doing this already but here is the part of the code that finally got what I wanted to be output correctly.

It was changing voltage to outputVoltage (since thats the value I wanted) but not sure what it worked.

  int voltage = outputVoltage; 
  
 Serial.print("LCD OUTPUT: ");
  Serial.print(outputVoltage);
 delay(100);
 
  if(outputVoltage<1.0)
  {
    UVIndex = "0";
  }else if (outputVoltage>1.0 && outputVoltage<=1.015)
  {
    UVIndex = "0.0";
  }else if (outputVoltage>1.015 && outputVoltage<=1.03)
  {
    UVIndex = "0.1";
  }
  else if (outputVoltage>1.03 && outputVoltage<=1.045)
  {
    UVIndex = "0.2";
  }else if (outputVoltage>1.045 && outputVoltage<=1.06)
  {```

as you may notice in the new code, I want to be able to output to the LCD from 0.0 to 10 in increments of 0.1.  Is there a (relatively) easy (For a beginner) to sort of use a lookup table or something?  The datasheet for the sensor shows a linear relationship between voltage and the UVI I am trying to output.  

Thanks
