The next step was creating the all the subVIs to give the program advancedfunctionality. This included the timer VI that uses the interval timer and delta timeunder the ski, the up and down by five VI, the volume left to infuse VI, and timeoutput.Using the online tutorials, Kevin developed knowledge about how to create anddownload labVIEW Vis onto the blackfin board. This gave knowledge of thebutton and LED functions.Kevin also procured the service manual that was needed to show the steppermotor connections from Soma Technologies. Some further device acquirementsinclude the PCL601 controller and TM4500 driver from Anaheim Animation.The testing to determine flow rates related to motor speed was completed byKevin. He also completed the programming of the serial communication thatwould be able to run the controller in the same way as the program provided.After gaining the serial communication knowledge, he also consulted Hassamon the serial programming for the text to voice and case structure needed fornumber outputs. Once all the pieces were in the LabVIEW he continued to finetune them until the functionality was correct and timing worked properly.Team Member 23: Hassam SultanHassam worked with NI Measurements and Automation in understanding theoperation of the BME lab stepper motor provided by Prof. Anestasio.Once the service manual was obtained for the Flo-Gard 6200 infusion pump,Hassam was able to interpret the schematic and connect the pump to the MID-7602 stepper driver to initiate testing with NI Measurements and Automations.Hassam communicated with analog device and national instrumentengineering in interpreting ways of operating the EZ-kit lite ADSP-BF537 Blackfinembedded microprocessor. LabVIEW interactive demos were available online inunderstanding the developmental process of TWI drivers, which Hassamincorporated in attempts to operate the LCD screen.Hassam tested and attempted in operating the various drivers (UART0, UART1,SPI, SPORT0, SPORT1, TWI) available on the EZ-kit lite ADSP-BF537 Blackfinembedded microprocessor with the LCD display and Text-to-Voice. This wasdone by analyzing and interpreting the blackfin board schematic for eachdriver and finding the driver pin functions on the blackfin board data sheet.106
