1. Introduction
Water level sensors are designed specifically for water depth detection, and can be widely used for sensing rainfall, water levels, and even liquid leaks.When the water level sensor is placed in water, the more the water level exceeds the copper wire, the larger the simulated value becomes. Read the simulated value of the water depth sensor module, print it in the serial port. If you want to know the water depth, we directly place the sensor a little bit in front of the detection part in water, so we can know the simulated value when just placed in water. Knowing this value, we can derive a formula: the current simulated value is CA, the simulated value when placed underwater is DA, water depth = (CA - DA) / 100.

Arduino UNO test results:
After the device is connected to the wire, upload the above program to the Arduino UNO development board, open the Mxily serial port monitor, slowly place the water level sensor module into the water, and the serial port outputs the analog value of the water depth sensor greater than 670 (equivalent to greater than 3cm), and the buzzer sounds.
