Controling heating/cooling element with labview and usb 6008 DAQ card

Greetings All
I'm looking for a heating/cooling type of element that I can control with labview and my usb-6008 card. Heating/Cooling will just be for clean water and the temperture range will be from 0 C to 100 degree C.
Thanks
The heating and cooling elements can be seperate products. Any recommendations

A simple kettle element will of course be sufficient for upto 100°C
To get the temperature down you need a cooling system, what springs readily to mind of course is a refrigerator.
Just a note of warning, water and electricity are dangerous bed fellows.
On that note perhaps one of those vortex air units would be safer - they blow hot in one direction and cold in the other, nominally to 100°C

Controlling a chemical process with LabVIEW and the SC 2075 board

Hi,
I am a degree student and one of my projects is to control a chemical process using LabVIEW and the SC2075 board. The process variables i must control are temperature, pH and also several motor. Is this viable using the SC 2075 board and if so does anyone know where i can attain information on using the board. Also if anyone has suitable sample vi's that may be of use to me it would be very much appreciated. My email is [email protected]
Kind Regards,
Derek

Hi Derek,
Bellow is a link the the user guide for the 2075.
http://www.ni.com/pdf/manuals/371217a.pdf
You should be able to aquire data from you sensors but you might need some signal conditioning depening on the voltage levels they return.
For sample vi's try going to Help>>Find Examples... within LabVIEW or goto the following link to search our developer exachange.

Connecting Agilent DSO3062A Oscilloscope with LabVIEW using USB

I am trying to connect Agilent DSO3062A Oscilloscope with LabVIEW using USB but the device is not recognized by MAX. I have installed the drivers for scope and it works fine with the scope software. The problem is LabVIEW dosen't recognize the scope. Please tell me the procedure of setting up the scope with LabVIEW 8.2. I am using Windows XP.

Hi there,
I think the issue is that the DSO3062A will not be recognized by LabView as a GPIB instrument through the USB connection. If you check out the 3000 series manual (http://cp.literature.agilent.com/litweb/pdf/D3000-97016.pdf) you'll notice on page 8 it says you can't use the USB for programming, it can only be used with their scope software. You need the N2861 module installed on the back to connect via GPIB, and then a GPIB interface to your computer. I hope that helps.

How to switch central frequency fastly with labview and USRP?

Hello everybody,
         Recently I was making a frequency hopping receiver with labview and USRP N210 and SBX. The transmitter works on the 2.4G band, and it changes from one central frequency to another every 65536us. As I think, if I start receiving at the correct time, and change the central frequency of the USRP every 65536us, I should be able to receive the data.
    But I find that, when usrp switch form one central frequency to a different one, it spends nearly 48ms and when it switch from one frequency to the same one, it only spends 3ms(I test the performance by modifying the niUSRP EX Rx Continuous Async Reconfig on the Fly.vi example). So if I want to follow the hopping sequency, I may can only receive 17ms data because I have to save time for switching central frequency.
     My problem is that: why usrp changes central frequency so slow, how can I make the process faster? If I want to follow the hopping sequency, can anybody give me some good advice? Thanks

There is an attribute "LO Frequency" that you can use to lock down the frequency of the local oscillator. Then, when you set the "Carrier Frequency" attribute, the difference between the carrier frequency value and the LO frequency value will be realized by frequency shift in the DSP in the FPGA. Changing this "digital" frequency shift value is much faster, since you don't have to re-tune the local oscillator.
Let's say you're sweeping from 2.44 GHz to 2.46 GHz. Set the "LO Frequency" to 2.45 GHz then Commit. Then, in your loop, program the "Carrier Frequency" attribute from 2.44 GHz to 2.46 GHz. In the loop, it will only program the digital frequency shift, which will happen much faster.
Another tip is to use the property node to program only the attributes you want to change, rather than the niUSRP Configure Signal.vi (which sets many at once).
For more details, see the "Configuration:Advanced:LO Frequency Property" in the NI-USRP Help, and look at this example:
<LabVIEW dir>\examples\instr\niUSRP\niUSRP EX Fine-Tune LO Frequency.vi

It was subreport-related, though I still do not know the exact root cause.
I was having trouble with both the built-in export as well as a custom process.
Removing the subreports as suggested, I isolated the failure to one of the three subs and rebuilt this subreport from scratch (it was only three fields) and now the report has no trouble with the pdf export. I am not sure if it had a resolvable technical issue or if it was just corrupted, as it is now working, I am not going to expend much energy on finding out.
Thanks for the suggestion.

Hello,
Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
Then perform these steps:
*Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
*In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
*In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
*Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
[[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
[[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
volume controls issues are windows, not firefox.

How can i work simultaniously with labVIEW and Excel ?

Hello . I study engineering and need some help with labVIEW, and the connection to microsoft excel.

Hi
NI offers an "Report generation toolkit". You get some VI's with this toolkit and so you can directly create your reports from LV.
Another possibility is the communication through ActiveX. There is a nice link with application notes and LV examples for that:

Anyone got experience with LabView and JTAG ?

Anyone got experience with LabView and JTAG ?
Especially in system programming of Altera and FLASH

Yes, I've actually driven JTAG using DIO, but this was a project in itself.
I guess you're just wanting to get the job done! I'm currently evaluating
gear to do the same job myself, in addition to interconnect testing. I've
been looking at JTAG Technologies equipment. They do PCI/PXI cards and the
SW, with a LabVIEW interface.
They're at:
www.jtag.com
You'll need to be sitting down when you get their quote though - their development
system costs about the same as a decent car!

Even after doing the recovery of my iphone 4, still i am getting a picture with itunes and usb port in phone. showing only the emergency call

I did a recovery of my iphone4. After extracting, recovery and verifying completing, my iphone restarted. But still i can only see the picture with iTunes and USB port in the iphone 4. Only the emergency call is allowed.
After recovery and re-start of my iphone4 the itunes doesn't detect my phone. What should i do now

DFU Mode and restore again, if it doesn't work, well then...I suggest you try using a custom firmware maker (sn0wbreeze), NOT for the jailbreak, just to try and fix your phone.

Laser operation with a USB 6008 DAQ

I'm wondering how I go about using the USB 6008 DAQ in conjuction with labView to turn on and off ths laser:
http://www.maplin.co.uk/p/1mw-3v-red-laser-module-le07h
The laser must be turned on using 3V which isn't possible with this DAQ. I was thinking of usinga BC 109 transistor, then have the laser connected to an external power supply which is supplying 3V to the laser. then have the laser connected to the collector of the transistor.
I set this up and it didn't exactly work out as the laser was drawing to high a current and not working correctly.
Can anyone help me?

OK. The problem is that you need to supply about 30 mA to the laser to get it to work. The digital outputs of the USB-9008 are limited to 8.5 mA or less. Furthermore, a laser diode is a current operated device. If you apply a fixed voltage the current will vary depending on the exact doping used when the device was manufactured and on it instantaneous temperature. The curretn rises exponentially with voltage as in any diode. The link you posted does not have any real data about the electrical characteristics of that diode.
Typically a current regulating circuit is used to drive laser diodes. The simplest circuit is a resistor in series with the diode connected to a power supply with a voltage higher than 3 V. The value of the resistor depends on the power supply voltage, the voltage drop across thes witching transistor, and how much current you want to run through the diode. If you have applied 12 V to that laser from a source which can provide substantial current (>50 mA), you have probably destroyed it.

nce of nth triggering pulse. i need to know when the when the ist trigger occurs and when the nth trigger occurs . please tell me how to to . what i know is that event triggering has to be done with start and stop trigger. please tell me how it has to doneSuresh;
What you will need to do is to set up a digital start and stop triggered Analog Input acquisition. Then you will need to have a counter set as event counter, having the specific number of pulses you need configured as the preset value, configured to count down, and generating a pulse after the terminal count has been reached. That counter output will be the stop trigger of the Analog Input operation. In summary, you will have the external pulse being both the digital trigger of the Analog Input operation and the source pin of the counter, and the counter output being the digital stop signal for the analog input.
I'm attaching a Labview VI that does the start and stop analog input acquisition. You will need to include the counter part and set the stop s
ignal to be the counter output.
Hope this helps.

Controlling Brushless maxon DC motrs using NI 6221 PCI Daq card

Hi ,
I have a NI 6221 PCI Daq (M Series) card. I need to know how to use it to control a brushless DC motor from maxon with digital encoder? Also I need to know how to access the daq from matlab 7.0 as i am not familiar with labview and i need to know where i can get the matlab drivers for the card. Also i am trying to learn labview in the course of time. So it would be great if someone can give me some good tutorials in labview for motor control.
Thanks

The lowest cost servo control option from NI is the PCI-7342 board which allows you to control two servo motors.
Please have a look at the datasheet for a detailed description.
Both, the 6221 and the 7342 provide synchronisation capabilities through the internal RTSI-Bus interface. This makes it easy to correlate e. g. analog values and motor positions.
As the 7342 doesn't provide power you will need to connect the board to an external drive.

Generating a tri state waveform pattern and writing into DAQ card

Hi,
I am using LV8.0 and NI-6259 DAQ card.
I want to generate a waveform pattern which initially goes to +5v and goes to 0v and then again goes to -5v
and finally goes to 0v.
I have used the waveform pattern generator and have generated 4 kinds of waveform with some particular samples
and I will be appending all the 4 waveform patterns(+5, 0, -5, 0) and the appended waveform will be written into DAQ card.
The problem is:
When I probe CRO at the Analog output pin of the DAQ card, the pin level will be always at +5v and sometimes
it goes to 0 and back to +5v. But I am expecting a waveform with 3 voltage levels i.e.., +5( some 100 samples), 0v(for some 1000 samples.
-5v(same as +5v) and 0v( 2000 samples).
How to get this kind of waveforms in NI-6259 DAQ(M Series) card.
Please find the attached VI which I have created.
Letme know the loophole in the VI and correct way of generating a tristate waveform.
Thanx in advance,
Yogesh

Hello YogeshaYS,
Thanks for your post!
I see that you are wanting to output a waveform that goes from 5 to 0 to -5 and then back to 0. It looks like from your code that you want to do this in a continuous fashion? If this is so you will need a while loop to output the waveform. Take a look at one of our shipping examples that shows how to do analog output waveform. Go to Help >> Find Examples. When here go to Hardware Input and Output >> DAQmx >> Voltage >> Cont Gen Voltage Wfm-Int Clk.vi. Your VI works great but it only does the output once so that may be why you see some interesting results on your output. Let me know if any of this information helps you with your program. I was able to run it in a continuous mode and see the voltage levels go from 5 to 0 to -5 just like you were wanting. Have a great day YogeshaYS and please reply if you have any other questions on this.
Cheers!
