    • How to get 5v pulse from a water meter

      Hi

      i have a water meter with a pulse out. this i ned to connect to a arduino now and maybe some other device later, so i need the pulse to 5v. now i can't get any good volt reading from the pulse. the only good reading i get is a value 10-40 Kohm pr. pulse. is there a way to fix this?

      I'm thinking like a solid stat relay or a pulse or ohm to volt converter.
      the solution need to handle up to minimum 35 pulses a second
      it stands in the manual that i can use a pull up resistor. i have tried this with 5v and a range from 2-6 Kohms resistors but the i get a constant 5 volt

      someone that can help?
      i add the sensor manual
      its the PR7 version.
