| Problem | Likely Fix | |-----------------------------|-----------------------------------------------| | HX711 not found in Proteus | Library not installed correctly → recompile | | DOUT stays HIGH | Check wiring; add pull-up resistor on DOUT | | No serial output in Proteus | Use + set baud rate match| | Weight value erratic | Increase averaging in code ( scale.get_units(10) ) | | Proteus crashes | Incompatible library version → try another source | hx711 proteus library

Navigate to your Proteus installation directory. The potentiometer value is stationary, or the clock
To use the HX711 Proteus library, follow these steps:
To "tell" Proteus the HX711 exists, you must place these files in the correct directory:
If "HX711" doesn't appear in the (P) menu, ensure you pasted the files into the DATA/LIBRARY folder, not the root Library folder. Fixed Values in Simulation To use the HX711 Proteus library, follow these
: The new component will now appear in your "Pick Devices" (P) list under the search term "HX711". The Engineering Projects Interfacing in Proteus
