Analog Devices RTI815 RTI-802 and Opto 22 AC28

I have an application that involves the AD, and opto 22 cards mentioned above in a test rig. Has anybody had any experience with these cards within labview?
* RTI-815 - Analog Input and Output card (+ some digital I/O)
* RTI-802 - Analog Output card
* AC28 - Digital I/O card
Regards,
John.

Hi, thanks for the responses. I did a search on the 815 and 802, but I must admit, I neglected to search the forums for the AC28. All 3 cards are still available (although AD has discontinued their cards UEI manufactures replacement units) The company I work for has these cards in several test rigs, and I'm looking at options of modernising the PC & control software without incurring the cost of a complete control system retrofit (the current control software is DOS based). In view of performance & accuracy it probably makes sense to upgrade the cards and signal conditioning, but In the short term that would be a difficult proposition.
We also have other test machines which use labview, AD 5B signal conditioning, and Siemens profi connected I/O. Ideally if we were to look at a complete retro I would be keen to commonise as much equipment as possible. However, while the current hardware remains available, and performs adequately It will be quite difficult to justify.
SSK: Also, I would be interested in the code that was you utilised, if you could dig it up that would be a great starting point.
Mark: Thanks also for your post. I'll look into the driver kit, and most likely ask NI if they would consider writing some drivers at some stage.

Labview driver for Analog Device cards RTI 800 series

Hello,
I'm Mathieu Meisser, from EPFL Lausanne - microtechnique.
I'm working for a company, that produces
laboratory PC-controlled analysers, sold all over the world.
we are searching for the Labview drivers for the I/O analog Device
cards RTI 815/817 in order to developp a new intrumentation control
with Labview 5.0.
It's very important to know if any kind of these drivers are
still avaible and work properly.
please let me know as soon as possible if you know
something about this !
thank you for your cooperation !

Hi Mohan,
Unfortunately there isn't a instrument driver specific to that device. What you could do though is use our NI-VISA driver and try to communicate with the instrument over serial (I assume it uses serial for communication) There are examples in the Example Finder (Help>>Find Examples) that ships with LabVIEW that will demonstrate some functions you can use. I hope this helps out.

Using USB-8451, and AD7747 from Analog Devices to measure capacitance and convert the capacitance to digital output

Hello,
I am new to LabView and data aqusition. I have LabView 8.5.1 installed on my laptop, and I studied the Getting Started document of LabView, except the data aqusition chapter.
I have microfabricated a differential capacitive sensor, and now I want to test the capabilities of my sensor.
After asking NI engineers, I have been suggested to use USB-8451 with AD7747 (24-Bit Capacitance-to-Digital Converter) from Analog Devices because AD7747 has I2C serial interface.
I have ordered USB-8451, AD7747, and Evaluation Board for AD7747. And I am waiting for them.
Are there any suggestions about how to connect my differential capacitive sensor to AD7747, and eventually to USB-8451?
You may want to know some further information to answer my question:
*The sensor is similar to the sensor on pages 501, 514, and 515 of "Microsystem Design" book from author Stephen D. Senturia.
*The datasheet for AD7747 can be reached from this link: http://www.analog.com/static/imported-files/data_sheets/AD7747.pdf
*My purpose is to make a very precise and accurate "displacement measurement micodevice" by using "the change in the capacitance" during the motion of the mobile fingers of the sensor.
As an initial challenge for myself, I will feel satisfied if I can measure the capacitance change in my sensor when I apply an external mechanical disturbance to my sensor. For example, there must be a change in capacitance if I just swing my hand from top of the sensor region.
I am looking forward for your reply,
Thanks in advance,
Sincerely,
sriverfxtr

Hi Aaron,
Here you go, this is made with a USB-8452.
When you run the code tick the power en dac enable box on.
Maybe you can help me with my problem, I want to use a fiber to sense light from a led.
Do you use any fiber hardware with the TCS3414?

How to Add Analog Devices Components to MultiSim v.9

I was wondering if it is possible to add the new Analog Devices component libraries to MultiSim Version 9.1.221 by a drag and drop in windows, or possibly through an import function in MultiSim.
If one were to download the MultiSim Analog Devices version 10.x and already have a licensed professional version of MultiSim 9.1.221 is this possible?

Hi,
It is not possible to import components from a higher version of Multisim into a lower one. You can import older databases into newer version. Take a look at the tutorial below:

Analog Devices Edition: Current feedback amplifier models not working

Hi, I'm using the Analog Devices version of Multisim and have problems simulating their current feedback amplifers. For example, I want to use the AD8000 as an inverting transimpedance amplifier, basically run a current into the inverting input, ground the non-inverting input, and chose the feedback resistor to be the transimpedance. I want to make sure that I can use feedback resistors between 100 and 2000 Ohms to convert negative current pulses to positive voltage pulses, but I can't get anything to work, even with the recommended feedback resistor values. With a current input I get negative rail saturation, while with a voltage input I get a step output.
Thank you.

Hi there,
I think I figured out why your circuit isn't working. It has to do with the treatment of the dedicated feedback output pin that exists on your amplifier. While this pin and the main output pin both exist on the physical package and are electrically connected, this isn't the case in Multisim. The feedback pin in Multisim exists on the schematic only, it doesn't actually have any simulation functionality. So, as a workaround, I suggest that you connect the feedback path to the output pin instead of the dedicated feedback pin. You would never do this in real life, but for simulation, it will work fine.
Thanks for pointing this out. We will look into this problem and have it fixed in the future.

Drivers for Analog Devices RTI-815

Hi,
Does anyone know where I can find Labview drivers for an Analog
Devices RTI-815 card, if they exist?
The card came out of a Haake Rheocord System 90. The old
controller for it is a 286; we'd like to replace it with a newer computer
and software written in Labview. Thanks for your help.

How do I add Analog Devices symbols and footprints to component database?

Hi,
Analog Devices conveniently has a library of their component symbols and footprints for Ultiboard and Multisim. How can I add these to the library?
Is it a drag and drop thing? If so what is the folder location?
If I go thru the available database interface it doesn't allow for selecting footprints outside of the existing library and adding them.
In ultiboard I can open the footprints, but 'save to database' is not an option available.
thanks
Ryan

I am not sure which file you downloaded, but I downloaded the Ultiboard Zip file (the small 3KB one). Each footprint is an individual footprint and apparently must be added manually to the database in Ultiboard.
How to do this? In Ultiboard, Extact them to a location on your drive and double click the footprint and it will load onto the screen like a normal board would. Now you have to goto DATABASE>DATABASE MANAGER. Once there you right click on USER DATABASE and add a family like say TRANSITORS. Then highlight your new family by clicking on it. Then goto the very top of the and you will see a little yellow "+" . click that and it will give you the option to add a new part from the current design to the user database. That is all you need. The footprint will be in the user database.
The next step is to assign it to the component in Multisim and you will have to refer to a turtorial on the NI Site in order to do this. I will post a link to it once I find it.
I do not know about the other file. Most of the time there are .PRZ files that the only thing you have to do is to go into the database manager of Multisim and select the user database. This will give you the option to do an import. If your files are a .PRZ file then you will be able to import using this option.
I hope some of this helps a little

Analog Devices RTI-800

Hi
We have several RTI-800 (older AD boards), and we want to update the control
software to LabView.
I'm looking for info on VIs for the RTI-800 in particular, or similar boards
in general.
Simple AD and DO are all we need.
Anybody have a VI, or a possible source for one?

Multiple device syncing advice needed and appreciated.

Hey everyone, happy holidays to everyone
I need some advice from you Apple lovers out there if you can spend some time replying. Thanks alot in advanced
My devices and current status
13" Macbook Pro with 8gig RAM with lion OS - Mosty used for word processing, DJing, low Internet usage now that i have Ipad, photo management, DVD ripping etc etc - i use this as my main device to organise emails and i purchase most apps, music and films on this device too
Ipad2 - Mostly for media content, web browsing, Youtube, playing games, FB, watching films. I use this device for fun not functionality or work related things
Iphone 4 - Usual phone usage, I use my phone as my main device for iCal, contacts, checking emails/messages on the move
2GB time capsule - brand new in the box as yet unused
Generally speaking i get confused or change my mind frequently about what to sync to which device, i started off using icloud but then things got confusing and i had things real messed up, multiple same contacts, apps on differnet device, differnet music on all 3 devices so now for the moment i think of my Macbook as the main device with both my iphone and ipad backed up to the Macbook. I then back up all of this on a regular 500g external Hard Drive.
So my questions are as follows
1. Can and should i use icloud to back up my devices and if so how should i do this effectivly
2. What syncing procedure would suit me best
3. How should i integrate Timecapsule to my devices
Any other suggestions would really be apreciated
Thanks again

The second part puzzles me - excuse me (but i honestly don't know) do both units give off a wifi signal of roughly equal 'amounts'?
Yes. Since both are connected by "Ethernet" each base station is its own wireless network and you have a few options on how best to configure them.
One of those options is to give both wireless networks the same Network Name (or SSID) so that you can, for example, "walk" a laptop from one to the other and stay connected. This is known as a roaming network.
If this is something that you don't desire or have a requirement for, then leaving them as two separate wireless networks would work just as well.
So what i am asking - i guess - is can i increase the distance the wifi signal reaches of the second unit (the time capsule - that is wired to the airport extreme)
To extend the wireless range of the Time Capsule (TC) you would need another 802.11n AirPort, like the AirPort Express Base Station (AXn). This should get a stronger signal out to the garden. Of course, it would really depend on the distance from the TC to where you would like to place the AXn to get the best results.
Let me know if you need help configuring the base stations.

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.

Activate a call forward with a Third-party SIP Device or with a analog device

Hi,
In a CUCMv9, how i can activate a call forward (all, busy, no anwser...) with Third-party SIP Device or with a analog device connected to a fxs?
I want to activate a call forward like a Alcatel or Aastra PBX with a code.
For exemple, i pick up the phone, with the code *95 followed by the destination number and hangs up the phone. And use the #95 for désactivate this call forward.
It's possible?
Thanks.

No codes for 3rd party SIP phones, no way to do it. Or for that matter, not even for Cisco Phones, other than CFA.
Anything besides CFA needs to be done via CCMadmin or CCMuser for any kind of phone.
For FXS that's only doable if you're running SCCP

Can I merge database of multisim analog device version in multisim?

Can I merge database of multisim analog device version in multisim?
If yes, please tell me how. Thx!
I saw the file named "MSCOMP_S.prd" in the folder:
C:\Program Files\National Instruments\Multisim Analog Devices Edition 10.0\database

Hi Zenith,
The databases between the two products are not compatible and therefore cannot be merged. This database was created specifically for the Analog Devices Edition. Merging two "Master" databases is also not possible since the merge utility will only allow merging two "User" or "Corporate" databases.

Connecting 802.11b/g devices to an 802.11n AirPort network

I have a Time Capsule with an iMac and a MacBook connected to it. I want to add a Windows laptop to the setup, but it only has 802.11 b/g networking built in. As I understand it, adding an 802.11b or g device to an 802.11n network will slow the network down to the speed of the slower b or g device. What kind of 802.11n device, that is compatible with the AirPort (Broadcom?) chipset, should I get to connect this computer to the network? (The PC does not have a card slot.)
Would an AirPort Express work in WDS mode, with its Ethernet port connected to the laptop's Ethernet port?

As I understand it, adding an 802.11b or g device to an 802.11n network will slow the network down to the speed of the slower b or g device.
Not quite all the way down to 802.11b or g, but there will be a bandwidth degradation for 802.11n clients.
What kind of 802.11n device, that is compatible with the AirPort (Broadcom?) chipset, should I get to connect this computer to the network?
A number of vendors, specializing in networking equipment, offer 802.11n USB wireless adapters. I have used a number of Cisco/Linksys products that work just fine with AirPort networking.
Would an AirPort Express work in WDS mode, with its Ethernet port connected to the laptop's Ethernet port?
If this AirPort Express Base Station (AX) is a 802.11b/g version, then it would have the same affect as any other 802.11b/g client. In fact, in a WDS, the network will only operate in the 802.11g mode, so you really don't to go that route either. Another option, would be to use a newer 802.11n AX; reconfigure it as a ProxySTA, and use its Ethernet port for the connection to the PC.

Trouble activating Multisim component evaluator Analog Devices Edition Version

I downloaded Multisim component evaluator Analog Devices Edition Version
13.0.. I’m having the same problem that I had last time I downloaded something
from NI. (Unactivated license). I think this is because of the tight security
where I work. The solution last time (after a lot of time and back and forth
emailing was to send me the activation code and I typed it in manually. (I
pasted that email below).

Maxium calls on Analog devices CCM v.7

I know this is probably a silly question but I would like to verify. Devices such as ATAs and VG248s that converts calls to analog, I've notice have only maximum call of 2. Is there a way around this or another way I have analog maximum calls set to 4?

The help document for the directory number settings page says:
"The default specifies 4. If the phone does not allow multiple calls for each line, the default specifies 2."
Analog devices do not support multiple calls per line. There is no way around this limitation to my knowledge.
Hope this helps.
