Abstract
The study implements the sending end of the multimeter and the corresponding firmware and software needed. A GizDuinoX controller, an Arduino board clone, was used to simulate the hardware part of multimeter. A compatible Bluetooth shield was attached to the said controller to facilitate wireless communicate between the controller and server. Arduino Development 1.0.1 was used to develop the firmware of the controller. It is an open-source software capable of interfacing an Arduino-compatible board into a computer. Microsoft visual C# was used to develop the server software. C# language is based on C language. The software developed was tested using three sets of controllers and Bluetooth shields. Each set has its corresponding test data for voltage, current, and resistance inputs. Furthermore, the inputs in each set can either be analog or digital. The analog and digital input assumptions are made due to the ADC component of the hardware. The input can be assumed to be read either before or after it goes through ADC. After a series of tests, the software and firmware developed was proven to function the way it was expected to.
