/products/arduino/b/blog/posts/cpu-monitor-panel---part-2In the first part, I tested out Python to see if it was possible to gather some system information which worked very well. While waiting for the LCD screen to arrive I thought I&#39;d try to see how straight forward it was to get that information out...en-USTelligent Community 12https://community.element14.com/products/arduino/b/blog/posts/cpu-monitor-panel---part-2Sun, 14 Apr 2019 18:48:11 GMT93d5dcb4-84c2-446f-b2cb-99731719e767:6be04f09-d63d-4aec-a3cb-4d57e3c19183DAB0<p>Nice update.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>DAB</p><img src="https://community.element14.com/aggbug?PostID=6861&AppID=145&AppType=Weblog&ContentType=0" width="1" height="1">https://community.element14.com/products/arduino/b/blog/posts/cpu-monitor-panel---part-2Sun, 14 Apr 2019 15:39:46 GMT93d5dcb4-84c2-446f-b2cb-99731719e767:6be04f09-d63d-4aec-a3cb-4d57e3c19183ralphjy1<p>Remember that RS232 also has the signals inverted so if you just do level shifting you&#39;ll need to account for the inversion in software.&nbsp; If you use an RS232 interface IC like the Max3232 then it does the inversion as well as the level conversion.</p><img src="https://community.element14.com/aggbug?PostID=6861&AppID=145&AppType=Weblog&ContentType=0" width="1" height="1">https://community.element14.com/products/arduino/b/blog/posts/cpu-monitor-panel---part-2Sun, 14 Apr 2019 14:19:12 GMT93d5dcb4-84c2-446f-b2cb-99731719e767:6be04f09-d63d-4aec-a3cb-4d57e3c19183jw07520<p>Hi Lucie</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>It was good that you did the testing and determined the level difference before hooking things up.
