How does the PCI-6229 DAQ-card communicate with CB-68LP connector block?

Hello!
I want to do a very simple task which is to just turn on/off a LED. I am using LabVIEW 7.1 and I have a DAQ-card PCI-6229. The DAQ-card is then wired to a connector block CB-68LP.
Now my problem is to figure out how the connector block communicates with the DAQ-card?
In the file I attached there is a picture of connector block and the device pinouts from the DAQ-card. But how do I know which of pinouts triggers some connector on the connectorblock?
Which are digital outputs on the DAQ-card?
Where can I read about this?

Hello asc01001:
The digital pins of the PCI-6229 are labelled as Px.y, where x is the port name while y is the channel name.  For example, pin52 of the NI 6229 is P0.0; which is also port 0, channel 0 of the digital I/O of the DAQ card.
While "D GND", which are located at pin53, pin18, pin50, etc. are the negative terminal of all digital I/O of the DAQ cards.
Please advice if this helps.

  • How can I connect the output of a force transducer unit(BNC cable) to the PCI-6036E DAQ card via the SCB-68 block connector?

    I m using the 404A force transducer unit by Aurora Scientific and i want to connect the (converted to Volt) output, which is a BNC cable, to the PCI-6036E DAQ card via the SCB-68 connector block, facing difficulties in choosing the correct input mode for my signal(couldn t clear this using the manual), setting the switches and which channel shall i use in the block connector in order to configure ot with LABVIEW

    Hi MSc Student,
    Connecting your transducer to the 6036E card via the SCB-68 connector block should be pretty straight forward. You have 2 choices of input mode, Referenced Single Ended (RSE) this is where you will connect the screen of the BNC cable to a ground connection for the DAQ card in the SCB-68 and the other to any analogue input channel . These are listed in the device pinouts in the help section of MAX, under the 68 pin devices section. The terminal block numbers correspond to the DAQ card's pin numbers. Another method, which avoids ground loop problems would be to use the Differential connection and connect the signal and ground connections of the BNC cable to a differential analogue input, these are listed in the 6036E manual and in th
    e MAX help section again. the disadvantage to using this method is 2 analogue input channels are used and you must use the lowest 8 analogue input channels for differential inputs.
    The switch settings that you need can be found in the manual for the SCB-68 in table 2-1, the manual can be found here : http://www.ni.com/pdf/manuals/320745b.pdf
    The switches are for power to extra signal conditioning and the cold junction compensation for thermocouples which in your case you do not need so set the switches to the positions in the first box ie Direct feedthrough, with temperature sensor disabled and accessory power disabled. The channel you use should not matter the only ting to remember will be that if you use differential mode measurement that you will be connecting the signals to AI(n) and AI(n+8) so differential input 0 is across the connectors for AI0 and AI(8). The channel numbers corespond to the analogue input number for the card.
    I hope this information helps,

  • Low sample-rat​e measuremen​ts on the PCI-6115 DAQ card

    I need to measure an analog signal at a sampling rate of a few tens to hundreds of Hz in sync with the rising edge of an external clock. I have a PCI-6115 DAQ card w/ Labview 6.1 and NI-DAQ 6.9.2. The PCI-6115 is a high speed card and has a minimum sample rate of 10 KS/s. Is there any way of implementing a low sampling rate measurement using the PCI-6115 in sync with an external clock?
    Thanks in advance.

    Kuldeep,
    It is possible to do what you are describing above (in fact I don't think an external clock is required to do this), however, bear in mind that the reason for this minimum sampling frequency is due to the ADCs used on this high speed board. The ADCs used are pipelined ADCs, meaning that when a signal is digitized, it is digitized in distinct stages within the ADC (in the case of the 6115, I think there are 3 stages involved). Data is moved from one stage of the ADC to the next each time a sample clock pulse is recieved. If too much time elapses between these clock edges, the signal to be digitized can actually 'leak' off of the ADC. This can result in improper digitization, which can lead to less accurate measurements. So, while it is possible to mak
    e the device sample below it's minimum rate, it may be advisable to sample faster than the rates required by your application, and either average multiple data points per measurement, or throw away extra points taken.
    I hope this helps,

  • 6229 DAQ Card: Problem if only one connector is connected

    Hi!
    I'm using a LABVIEW 6229 DAQ- Card to acquire signals. Unfortunately I only connected on of the Connectors of this card and left the other one unconnected (This means that one half of the analog inputs is connected to nothing). So far no problem :-) Unfortunately I'm still measuring signals on the analog input channles that are not wired to anything if I'm measuring signals on the analog input that are wired!?
    The signals of this unwired analog inputs are quite similar to those of the connected ones..
    If I only measure analog inputs that aren't wired to anything I see a voltage ramp or a constant voltage of -10V as I would expect. Any idea what could go wrong? All this seems a bit strange to me :-)
    Thanks for your help!

    But I also don't see ghosting at the unwired channels if i'm measuringsimultaneously
    at the wired channels. Only if I'm measuring only unwired channels I see ghosting at that is what seems strange to me...
    If I would always measure ghosting at the unwired channels everything would be fine :-)

  • How does the SDK and Reader handle printing with orientation?

    I have a document that I want to print, and it contains a portrait page on Page 1, and a landscape page on Page 2.  Acrobat Reader correctly prints these pages (with a single print job), and I'm assuming it's because of the auto-rotate option on the print dialog.  Is this a feature of Reader, the API, or how the printer handles the request.  I've tried printing this PDF just using the JAva API, but the orientation remain portrait for all pages.  How does the Adobe Acrobat API deal with mixed orientation pages?  Ignore the fact that I did my test printing with Java, because my question is whether or not the auto orientation is a feature of the UI, the SDK, or the printer (or a combination).

    Same as the current Ipod Video or "Classic" there is an option under settings to toggle between original aspect ratio or Full Screen.

  • HOW DOES THE NEW MBOX 2 MINI WORK WITH THE MAC MINI?

    I have a old original Mac mini 1.25GHz with 1 GB SDRAM - 40GB Ultra ATA drive, 4x SuperDrive (DVD±RW/CD-RW) OS 10.3
    I also have just added the new MAC MINI 1.66 CTO OS 10.4
    with the following configuration:
    * Processor 065-6673 1.66GHz Intel Core Duo
    * Memory 065-6676 1GB 667 DDR2 SDRAM-2x512
    * Hard Drive 065-6750 120GB Serial ATA drive
    * Optical Drive 065-6679 Combo Drive
    In addition, I have a MicroNet 150 GB external hard drive.
    The 3 are linked together so that the icons for the MircroNet and the old Mac mini are shown on the New Mac mini desktop.
    I’ve kept the New MM as is for apps, moved most of the files and folders to the MNet, and have done a reinstall on the old MM, getting rid of almost everthing that was on it originally except the OSX and apps.
    I’m thinking about using the old MM to set up a recording studio. This would involve the new MBox 2 Mini with ProTools LE. For details, just Google it. It comes 2 ways, configured for the G4 MM or for the new Intel MM. I’d rather not clutter up the new MM with this, as sometimes the Digidesign Pro Tools apps can be a bit toxic.
    If I get the MBox 2 Mini and run it on the old MM, will this work? Has anyone tried this? Do I have enough processing power and speed, ram and hard drive space?
    Thanks!

    Hi Larry,
    I just purchased a Mbox 2 Mini. I am running it flawlessly with my Core Duo 1.66Ghz Mac mini w/2GB RAM.
    I have not seen the two versions for Intel and PPC Macs as you described. Digidesign only produces one box...compatible with Mac or PC.
    The Digidesign site states that the Mbox 2 Mini is compatible with your 1.25GHz mini, but Pro Tools LE 7.3.x requires Mac OS X Tiger 10.4.x, not Panther 10.3.x.
    You would get far better perfomance using the Intel mini over the PPC. And, you would get better perfomance by maxing the RAM out as well.

  • Setting different analog output's parameters in PCI-6229 DAQ card

    Hello,
    We are using DAQ assistant to set the analog output parameters (frequency).
    Is it possible to set different values for each channel using DAQ assistant?
    If not using DAQ assistant, what  is the other way to set it?
    Thank You
    Arunas

    If you are trying to set different frequencies for waveform generation on two channels, the answer is No, it can't be done. If possible, you will have to pick a sample rate high enough to work for both signals, and use an over-sampled waveform.
    Another choice would be to use a second device for the second waveform.

  • How to switch multiple relays using PCI 6601 DAQ card

    What is the specification of the digital output value given from the PCI 6601 DAQ card?How to develop LAB VIEW code to switch a relay?Can anybody please explain?

    Hi hasi,
    did you read the manual and the specs of the PCI6601? It says: "5V TTL/CMOS compatible"...
    You shouldn't expect to much current from a simple DO pin - probably it's not enough to drive your relay!

  • 32 bit I/O using PCI-6533 DAQ card

    I am thinking of purchasing the PCI-6533 DAQ card and need to know if the the 32 bits can be configured individually as input or output. I know that they can for unstrobed and static applications but I need to be using strobed or non-static. I also know that the you can set the 8 bit ports as input or output ports for highspeed. So my question is... Can I configure each individual line as input or output for highspeed applications?

    Hi,
    Unfortunately, the 653x boards can only be configured on a line-by-line basis for asynchronous digital I/O.
    When in synchronous pattern acquisition/generation mode, the 653x is divided into 2 groups (2 ports in each group). These two groups can be operated independently as input or output and at different clock frequencies. However, all lines on both ports of a group are configured in the same way.
    If you are looking for completely individually controlled lines in a pattern generation/acquisition application, you might consider the new high-speed digital board (NI 655x).
    Hope that helps. Have a good day.

  • How Does the scheduler works with ODI engine

    Hi All,
    I am new to the ODI and I was going through the documents over the web regarding the scheduling.
    Can anyone please let me know how does the Scheduler in ODI is coupled with the ODI engine.
    How does the internal scheduler works and how does the external one works. What are the processes the it calls while invoking the scheduler.
    Your help will be highly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Sumit

    Scheduling in ODI is controlled by a special type of ODI agent, strangley called the ODI scheduling agent. This agent is installed as a service and as well as being responsible for all tasks associated with a normal agent is also responsible for managing ODI jobs based on any scheduling information associated with an ODI scenario. All scheduling information is stored in the ODI repository and the scheduler agent reads from this to determine which jobs/scenarios need to be executed and when.

  • How do i generate the TTL pulse from PCI 6024E DAQ card

    Hi, I'm trying to write a program which generates a single TTL pulse when it is run. My goal is to generate the pulse, send it to the output channel of my PCI 6024E DAQ card, and then use a BNC cable, to display the signal on the oscilloscope. I have written the code and I think it appears fine but when I try to view the signal on the scope I am unable to see the pulse. I have tried slowing down the sweep on the scope and have adjusted the voltage and time scales but have not seen any response. After examing my DAQ card, I noticed that none of the PFI/TRIG terminals on the card are wired; the output channel connects to terminals for DAC0OUT and Ground. I'm wondering if this pin needs to be wired in orde
    r to generate the pulse since PFI0/TRIG1 is the start trigger terminal. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Hello,
    I've found the problem
    The PCI1200 has a chip 8255 for Digital I/O
    If I use the bad VI, it reconfigures the port and all the lines go in a low logic state
    so I'd to write only on the port or the line without reconfigure the port
    So the good VI in the palett is: Port Write and not Digital Port write!
    See attached file..
    Thanks

  • What is the maximum number of samples that can be acquired with a single trigger using PCI-6036E DAQ card?

    1. My PCI-6036E card has a FIFO of 1024 bytes in AI. Maximum how many samples can be acquired with single trigger for digitizing a waveform?
    2. PCI-6036E DAQ card has got a AO with 10ks/s update rate? Can I generate a pulsed output with the AO of this card? I need a pulse of, say, 5 V and 1 kHz frequency.

    Giri,
    1.The trigger is usually for enabling the acquisition. I mean, when it is logic zero, you acquire nothing; however, when it is logic one, you start acquiring your waveform,and you can acquire continuously without having to worry about how many samples, unless you want to set your program for doing so. You can acquire continuously by implementing buffer acquisition. Finally, the FIFO that is in the board will not affect the buffer acquisition.
    2.Yes, you can do that! You can generate your 5V signal with that specific frequency, and you should not have any problems, because the freq fits in the update rate.
    I hope this information is helpful.
