Which NI devices should I buy and how to start with?

Greetings!
I am an undergraduate who is trying to design a control system which can measure chemical solution conductivity as well as PH value; besides, based on those values, we need to control 4 valves to open and close so that acid, base, water,and salt from 4 tanks can flow into the main pipe.
Question: Which NI device should I buy and start with? The devices have to have at least 4 input/output, do you have any suggestion, Thank you very much!!
I am also new to LabVIEW, so any extra suggestion would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you , we are considering purchasing NI USB-6008
http://www.ni.com/products/usb-6008/
Doest it work with the following PH sensor, one specification says that it has output voltage of Output 0-5 vdc, does NI USB-6008 accept it?
Model A1004 pH Transmitter
Warning
Do not short the power connections. Wrong wiring of the signal and power wires will result in
permanent damage to the unit instantly.
Specs:
Range 0-14pH
Power: 12vdc 500ma nominal
Output 0-5 vdc
Material ABS
Calibration trim pots
Distance up to 50ft
Model A1004 is a pH transmitter designed to be used with PLCs and microprocessors that accept
analog input of 0-5vdc.
Connect any general purpose pH sensor to the transmitter. Double junction sensor is preferred.
Calibrate unit with 4 and 7 pH buffer solutions. Use zero trim pot to adjust 4pH and span trim pot to
adjust 7pH..Fine tune adjustment is done with span trim pot.
If you do not have a sensor , short the bnc connector ,this will simulate 7pH and observe output voltage
of 2.5vdc.
Din connector provides power and signal from one cable.
Note.: When connecting signal and ground to the PLC input ,use .01uf capacitor across signal
and ground to filter any noise issues.

  • Which file type should I use and how I use it?

    Hello!
    I need to create a file with some data that has been inserted manually.
    In this file, for example, there are:
    ProjectName1: string1, string7… string10, date1
    ProjectName2: string11, string15… string20, date2
    ProjectNamek: string 100, string 116 … string 140, date1
    I know only one thing: one of the strings.
    What I need to find in the file:
    I need to find the string at one of these rows and get its ProjectName and date.
    For example: if I have string15,
    I should find string15 in the file, and get its ProjectName and date:
    ProjectName2, date2
    Which file type should I use and how I use it? What is the best solution?
    Thanks!

    (ie:
    1. ProjectName always starts the line and ends with a ':'.
    2. The rest of the strings on the line are separated by ", " and will never contain ", "
    you might also want to have a look at String.split().

  • Which Nokia Device should I buy ?

    Dear Friends,
    My interest is watching movies and so I want to
    use the device as a DVD player. This means I download
    the movie direct to my device or to my pc and then to
    my device and then connect the device to the TV and
    watch the movie. In fact I have seen a friend who
    connected his N95 8g by cable to the the TV and played
    Spiderman 111 and the picture was terrific. But the
    thing which I did not like about N95 8G is that it
    has no external memory card.
    Therefore friends can you tell me which is the right
    Nokia device for me. Is N 82 the right choice?
    The connection to the TV must be by cable like the
    cable used by N95 8g not wireless as I will never be
    able to connect my device wirelessly to the TV. You
    see I am not good at these things.
    Thank you in advance for your kind response.

    By the way is the screen of N 82 same as N95 8G?
    The N82 has the video output for a television with the cable and so does the N95 8GB, but if you want to watch videos - the N95 8GB is better because of the massive screen.

    You can only return the machine if you're within 14 days of purchase - otherwise you're just 'stuck' with what you purchased (unless you sell it, of course).
    I always recommend that Retina owners order 16GB of RAM as the RAM is not upgradable - it's soldered onto the logic board.
    Your call - if you're with 14 days of purchase, take it back and exchange for a 16GB model. Or sell it and buy a model with 16GB. The higher amount of memory will allow you to run far more memory-hungry apps concurrently.
    Good luck,

    In general most macs you buy are the same. If you will be doing quite a lot of editing of photos and videos, then the big things to look for are:
    Processor - 2.8ish GHz Intel i7 4-core - is about the best I have head of thus far.
    RAM - fairly easy to upgrade yourself, but 16GB is typically more than you will need for the next 5 years at least.
    iLife is reasonably good software for editing media, but as a photographer, you may have your own prefered software
    The good thing about Apple is that they don't sell ****** computers in general. They offer little in the way of customization of hardware which is both their strength and weakness.

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    You can upgrade to Mac OS X Snow Leopard, and then, you should be able to use OS X Lion.
    First, buy Snow Leopard > http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard Then, make a backup of your data, insert the Snow Leopard disc and upgrade to Snow Leopard.
    The disc will install Mac OS X 10.6.3, so open  > Software Update to install 10.6.8, the most recent Snow Leopard version.
    See if your Mac is supported > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4949 If you see that it's compatible, call Apple to buy OS X Lion > http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57 Also, check if your apps are compatible > http://www.roaringapps.com

  • Which iPad Retina should I buy in the US so it will work in the UK?

    I am going to the States next month and want to buy the new iPad there.  Which iPad Retina should I buy in the US so it will work in the UK, the AT&T or Verizon model? I'm probably staying with O2, but can't tell if different models are sold in the UK, or if its just the one.  If just the one, I can't find which model number it is for the UK. The apple store website isn't exactly clear on which model(s) is/are sold in the UK.

    Hi,
    We don't have cellular, but I have often read many ques. and answers here just for my own info when we were first buying. I do know that in the past, Verizon had a different system than ATT and others. That could all have changed with LTE. I checked a couple of articles and found the following links which might help you. PLEASE NOTE these were published in March and May of 2012, so things might have changed with the new ipad 4. Also note that you can buy a cellular here without a contract that you could then set up with your own UK phone company.

    You also said you wanted retina display and then said you were probably staying with 02. If by that you mean the ipad 2, I want to let you know that the ipad 2 does NOT have the retina display. That would mean you'd have to get the old discontinued 'new' ipad or the ipad 4. And if I were you, I would not even think of buying an old 'new ipad, even if there's a great sale on them. I'd go straight to the ipad 4.
    Make sure you do as much research as possible.
    Hope this helps.

  • Which macbook pro should I buy?? 13 or 15??

    I am planning to buy a macbook pro but I don't know which macbook pro I should buy.
    Games are not that important to me, however I play games such as call of duty, nba 2k, need for speed sometimes. Portability is important to me because it is compulsory for bringing laptops to school. I am confused on buying which macbook pro because the gpu of 13 is bad but 15 might be too big and heavy.
    So which macbook pro should I buy?

    Hi Lawrence,
    You've point out some of the important factors. For me, the choice would be easy. I'd gladly put up with a bit more bulk/weight to have a 15" display. ymmv

  • Which macbook pro should i buy if i use finalcut7?the i5 or i7?

    which macbook pro should i buy if i use finalcut7?the i5 or i7?

    Either one will do the job.  The more powerful the CPU, the faster it will perform.  I suggest that if the budget is tight, go for the i5, if not go for what the bank account will allow.
    It is nice to have a fast CPU, but they are not essential to the overwhelming applications that most people use, especially in a non-vocational context.  On this forum there are the 'speed freaks' who will tout the virtues of faster CPUs, yet most have never compared two MBPs side by side and experienced the differences of real world results.
    Ciao.

    If your Mac is new-ish and has one of the Lions as its OS, the drives, cards, USB sticks no longer show up, even though they're there. Go to Finder's Preferences and tick the corresponding items in the General and Sidebar tabs.

    Have an IMac 7.1, desktop system 10.4.11, 2.8 GHz, 4MB, 4GB.  what can I upgrade to?  What do I need to buy and how high can I go?

    You can replace one of the 2 GB RAM sticks with a 4 GB stick for a total max. RAM of 6 GBs.
    Here are the specs.
    Maximum Memory
    6.0 GB (Actual) 4.0 GB (Apple)
    Memory Slots
    2 - 200-pin PC2-5300 (667MHz) DDR2 SO-DIMM
    Purchase reliable Mac RAM from online vendors Crucial or OWC (Other World Computing).
    The highest OS X version you can go is OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion.
    First, though, you need to purchase a retail disc version of OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard in order to download upgrade to OS X 10.8.
    Purchase OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard here.
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    Use Software update, in OS X Preferences Pane to update to the latest version of OS X 10,6 Snow Leopard before upgrading OS to 10.8 Mountain Lion.
    OS X 10,6.8 will install the Mac App Store icon in OS X's Application Dock.
    From there, you can launch the Mac App Store and download and install OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion.
    Use Sofware Update again to update to the latest version of Mountain Lion.
    Be advised, you may want to play around in OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard before updating to OS X 10.8 Mt. Lion.
    Some users aren't happy with the Hybrid OS X/iOS functionality of OS X 10.8 Mounatin Lion.
    If you upgrade to OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion and aren't happy with it, the only way to return to OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard is wipe the internal drive, reformat it, then reinstall OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard.
    You might want to consider purchasing an external FireWire hard drive, format it so you can install OS X 10,6 Snow Leopard and all of its updates onto the internal drive, use a copying/cloning app like Carbon Copy Cloner or Super Duper to make a duplicate of your internal drive to the external FireWire drive as a backup that you can reinstall onto your internal drive just in case you find you are not happy with the look and functionality of OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion.
    Good Luck!
