  • This paper presents the simulation of real time data acquisition of a solar panelin LabVIEW. A prototype model has been made where two Arduino were used. One is used for interfacing the solar panel with the PC for acquisition of data and the other one isused with the servomotor. The servomotor is linked with the solar panel with the help of a shaft and is rotated according to the LDR output. Two LDR is fixed on both the sides of the solar panel for tracing the sunlight. The whole simulation is performed with the help of LINX firmware wizard, which is available in LabVIEW Maker’s Hub. Data were collected of different days in different duration of time. According to the collected data, behaviour and the voltage of the solar module was analysed. This paper describes the design of a low cost, solar tracking and real time data acquisition system.
