Hello Thiyagu,
The following steps describe how to configure a measurement with NI hardware in DIAdem:
Configure your hardware in MAX. It is necessary to define “Global Virtual Channels” in MAX for each signal you would like to measure with DIAdem.
Open DIAdem DAC and choose “NI DAQ driver” (icon DAQ) in the toolbar “Driver inputs”.
Open the “NI DAQ” block and select the signals to measure
Complete you DAC scheme with other function blocks of DIAdem DAC and start the measurement.
Greetings

How to read a trigger from my daq card?

Hi all,
I have a program A which uses my daq card for triggering and data acquisition. Now, I am creating an another program B which should be executed at the same time with A. The program B needs to read a trigger which A creates from the daq card. It would be kind of a stimulus for program B that it knows when to start executing its own code.
My question is, how to do this? I am using a flat sequence structure in B and after observing rising edge of a trigger in the first subdiagram I want move to second subdiagram where my main code is.
I've planned to use daqmx vis for this but which one? Maybe one vi is enough?
Best regards,
Jick

Jick,
if A and B can be part of the same LabVIEW application, things are getting a lot easier.
Next question:
What is the maximum delay between A and B and the actual trigger event? If timing isn't that neccessary, you should take a look into queues and notifiers.
hope this helps,
Norbert
EDIT: The BNC 2110 is a terminal block for connections to the transducers. It is no device with an analog-digital-converter (ADC). The sampling device is the device mounted in your PC/PXI where the BNC 2110 is connected to. You can alternativly look into MAX (Measurement and Automation Explorer) for information about your sampling device.

How to configure mail accounts with a DualSim Card

Hi all!
I have a BB 8520 and a Dual Sim Card (two lines in the same SIM, the work one and the personal one).
I have a corporate account Lotus Notes mail (with BES server) configured with the work line and i want also to configure my private mail account in my personal line, but when i think it's done, i get no messages in it nor i can send anything. Is it not possible? It is, to configure the work mail in the work line and when i boot my personal line, to receive via BIS my personal mail.
I need your help.
Thanks in advance

You can only have the PIN/IMEI of the device associated with one SIM or BIS/BES account at one time.
Each time you swap lines you will be required to re-enter/re-register the device with the associated account.
So, it is possible... I would never want to go through that hassle.

How do I syncronize and implement MANY DAQ cards?

I need to acquire 30 channels of analog data at 400 kHz scan rate (all 30 channels is one scan. It would be preferable to convert all 30 cahannels simultaneously and stream data to disk for long data collection times. Signal conditioning such as integrators/sample and hold is an option to reduce the simultaneous sampling requirements.

Do you already have DAQ boards or are you looking to purchase? If you already have the DAQ boards, you can synchronize them together by sharing the clock source between them. This can either be done externally or internally with a RTSI cable.
If you are wondering what DAQ boards to use, there are several options.
If you can drop your scan rate all the way down to 40 kHz, you can use one NI 6071 device to scan in all 30 channels. If you must sample every channel at at 400 kHz, you will need to use multiple DAQ boards, and possible multiple systems. With the 6070E board, you can sample 3 channels at 400 kHz, though you would need ten of these boards. Another option would be to go with a simultanious sampling boards. The NI 6110 has four analog inputs with a 5
M/samples per channel rate. You would need several of these as well.
Once you have the DAQ boards, you can synchonize them by having them all use the same scan clock. If the boards are in the same system. You can internally connect them using a RTSI cable. (up to five devices.) This way, you do not have to externally wire the clock. Since you will probably have to use multiple systems, you will need to use external wiring to connect the clock source to the multiple systems.
Let me know if you have any questions about this.

How to generate pwm pulse using NI DAQ in MATLAB

hi everyone. please tell me how to generate pwm pulses using Ni DAQ card in MATLAB Simulink. if through coding is possible then post the corresponding code.....reply me

Make sure you have installed the Measurement studio support for VB 6.0 then you will be able to find examples in the folder below on win7 and 8.
C:\Users\Public\Documents\National Instruments\NI-DAQ\Examples
Narrow down to Analog Output and choose update voltage example for measurement studio.
You also have the possibility to use DAQ assistant if you have measurement studio installed. This function is a configuration type programming. After going through the configuration Wizard code is automatically scripted for you so that you can output the voltage you need. Read more about DAQ assistant in the blow link.

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?
Attachments:
daqANDconnectorblock.bmp ‏2437 KB

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.

Multifunction printer - how to configure the scanner

Hi,
I just finished installing a multifunction printer - Canon Mx 310 to the print server using a computer with Win 7 (64bit).
The printing option works perfect. Now I need to configure the scanner option, since I get an error that no scanner is connected when trying to use the scanning option.I connected the multifunction printer directly to the computer and I am able to scan.
Can someone guide me in how to configure the print server so the computer can detect the scanning port.
Thanks

I will try the software at the page you linked to. I am in a similar boat, in that one of my machines is Windows 7, but the utility on my XP machine doesn't see the print server even though it's there and can be accessed on the network as a printer by both machines.

How to arm channel 1 of a PCI 6133 DAQ card using labview?

Hi,
I am new to the Labview and I need some help. I have a PCI 6133 multifunction DAQ card and I'm using Labview 8.2 to capture five channels waveform data. I setup channel ai0 to be the trigger channel and I need to capture data from ai0, ai1, ai2, ai3, and ai4 when ai0 is trigger.
Question:
1) I am using DAQ assistant to configure my channels. How can I arm the channel ai0? I have an "execute button" and it should arm the scope when I click it.
2) Is there trigger ready signal, so I can save all the channels data when channel ai0 is trigger?
Can anyone provide some help?
Thanks

Hello wirte spreedsheet,
Thanks for posting to Discussion Forum. It looks like you are using the
PCI-6133 to acquire analog data from ai0:ai4. You want to use ai0 as
the trigger for the other channels.
Does your application need to be retriggerable?
Are you doing continuous acquisition?
Are you doing Analog start trigger or reference trigger?
Take a look the following shipping examples, found in LabVIEW click
Help>>Find Examples. On the browse tab, Hardware Input and
Output>>DAQmx>>Analog Measurements>>Voltage:
Cont Acq&Graph Voltage - Analog SW Trigger.vi
>> This example demonstrates how to perform an analog software
triggered acquisition. The example allows the user to specify the
triggering condition and the number of pre-trigger samples to acquire.
Cont Acq&Graph Voltage - Int Clk - Analog Start.vi
>> This example demonstrates how to continuously acquire data
(Waveform) using the DAQ device's internal clock and an analog slope
start trigger.
Take a look at these applications and let me know if you have any questions or comments.
Have a good day.

How to configure a shell and tube heat exchanger with Lab VIew to get data

HiI
In our undergraduate chemical engineering labboratory we want to configure our shell and tube heat exchanger with a DAq and Lab VIEW to get information about the temperaure (of the cold fluid stream being heated), the pressure (of the steam on the shell side of the heat exchanger) and the flowrate (of the water being heated).
Can anyone suggest thermocouples, pressure transducers and flowmeters to fit between the heat exchanger and the DAq?
P.S. the heat exchanger is already fitted with thermometers, a pressure gauge and a rotameter but we don't know how to connect these hardware to the DAq
Solved!
Go to Solution.

It sounds like you have enough information to pick out appropriate sensors, you just need to do the research. I would start looking through the Omega catalog, or give them a call - they're usually helpful. I can't take the time to spec out parts for you - that would be a lot of time spent on someone else's project. Most pressure sensors put out either a 4-20mA or 0-5V signal, either of which you can read through an analog input on a DAQ; measuring a 4-20mA signal requires a resistor to convert to voltage. Most of the NI DAQ boards can read a thermocouple on an analog input, but make sure that your hardware does support reading thermocouples. For accurate readings, use a device that has built-in cold junction compensation - for example, the SCB-68 connector block - and for the most accurate readings, get a board specifically designed for temperature measurement.
For the flow measurement, a standard, simple solution is an orifice plate. You put a differential pressure transducer across it, look up the appropriate equations, and use them to calculate the flow rate given the density of the fluid (which you'll be able to calculate from the pressure and temperature, since steam tables are widely available). There are other differential pressure devices available as well - at a previous job we used a V-Cone from McCrometer. If you call them they'll spec one for you - but get an approximate cost first to make sure it's within your budget.

How to create and use scales for DAQ-6014 in Labview?

Hello,
In my application, I use the DAQmx-driver to read the 16 analog input terminals of my DAQ-Card. I create a task with all the 16 channels and define for each channels the input domain (from 0 to 10V) and configure them as NRSE. Then I configure my task to measure the waveforms during 10s with 1000 Hz each time I need it.
The waveform I measure are raw data and I need to scale them to get a mesurement with physical signification. This is actually done after each measure, which costs a lot of time (almost 5 seconds). Then I tried to use the DAQmx Create Scale.vi to create scales and attach them to the channels during my task creation. The creation of scale works fine and I can attach them to the channels. But when I do my measure, I get the raw data - unscaled.
I have no idea, what I am doing wrong. I look for some examples on how to use the DAQmx Create Scale.vi but I can't find none.
Does anybody already have some experiences with this VI?
Cheers,
Olivier

Hi,
May be I don't get exactly what you mean with:
"Right click On DAQmx read and check the options with DAQmx AI read (it is a polymorphic VI) ."
I set the DAQmx read polymorphic VI to the option "Analog 1D Wfm NChan NSamp".
Anyway, I send you 3 VI:
- NIDAQ_6014_CreateScales.vi: where I create my scales
- NIDAQ_6014_StartAIN_Scaled.vi: where I create my task and use the scales
- Measure.WaveFormReader.vi: where I read my data
May can you see what is wrong.
Cheers.

How to avoid dependance between output digital port with a PCI 1200 daq card?

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

How to configure 6533 both as input as well as output

Hello,
I am using 6533 for acquiring data from the peripheral. I am recieving 16 bit data(so i am using port 0 and 1) . i am using pattern generation mode for acquiring the data.i am writing the application on vc++. Now i am required to use the one line in the remaining 16 bit(first bit of port 3) as output port. Can some one me how to configure the port in vc++. which API to be used DIG_grp_congif,DIG_prt_config??????
waiting for reply
praveen

Hi Praveen,
You would want a combination of NI-DAQ function calls for input and for output. NI-DAQ ships with example programs for digital input and output for VC++ as long as you installed support for VC++ with your install of NI-DAQ.
You can do a repair on your install by going to Add/Remove Programs and adding the support from there. If you already have the support installed for it, you'll find your examples in the following directory: "C:\Program Files\National Instruments\NI-DAQ\Examples\VisualC".
The two examples you'll want to merge are:
1) DIdoubleBufPatternGen653x
2) DOdoubleBufPatternGen653x
Hope that helps. Have a good day.

Configure DAQ cards in RT PXI system

Greetings all,
I'm just trying to learn how to use Real Time and I'm having trouble setting up the DAQ cards in the PXI chassis.
I am able to successfully connect to the PXI RT system and run simple VI's that have no DAQ or VISA access.
What I can't any info on is how to setup and access the DAQ and serial ports on the RT system. A quote from teh help file says,
"To configure remote DAQ devices, select your DAQ device from the Devices and Interfaces category under My System. Select Tools»NI-DAQ Configuration»Remote DAQ Configuration from the MAX menu to launch the Remote DAQ Configuration dialog."
I've tried this and it wants to see the RDA server running on the PXI, which of course isn't there sin
ce it's running RT.
What am I doing wrong here?
I'm running a PXI-8156B with a PXI-6071E and PXI-6713. This also has NT4 installed. Both PXI and host machine have LVRT 6.0.3, NI-DAQ 6.9.1
The host is running Win200.
Thanks

Using the Abort button to stop your VI is like using a tree to stop your car. It works, but there may be consequences.

I'm using:
LabVIEW 6.1
NI-DAQ 6.9.2f4
MAX 2.2.0.3010
This may be obvious to others, but it certainly was not to me...
I wanted to configure devices on my remote PXI RT system, and I experienced the exact situation described above.
All the instructions and help I could find seemed to suggest that I should select the following menu item:
Tools >> NI-DAQ Configuration >> Remote DAQ Configuration...
But when I went there and entered the name or IP address of the Remote System, MAX couldn't find it. The PXI system was listed in the "Remote Systems" folder, and I could set up its networking parameters and software downloads from the "Remote Systems" folder.
It turns out the
key is to:
right-click on "Devices and Interfaces" in the "My System" folder
select "Create New..." to bring up a dialog<\li>
selec "RDA/Ethernet Device" then click "Finish" to bring up yet another dialog
specify the remote systems address, then click "Next"
The List of Remote Devices Appears!!! (Hallelujah!)
select a device, "Next", specify a local device number, "Finish"
Now the Remote Device is listed in the "Devices and Interfaces" folder of "My System" (strange that it's not listed under the Remote System - but who cares at this point).
repeat for each device
Now you can go back and select that original menu item (Tools >> NI-DAQ Configuration >> Remote DAQ Configuration...), specify the address, and (Behold!) there are those pesky remote devices.
(NOTE to NI... If this process is described anywhere in documents or help files relating to configuring devices on a remo
te RT PXI system I couldn't find it. Perhaps my trouble is that I've never used a PXI system or remote devices prior to trying to us LabVIEW Real-Time, but I'm probably not the only person in this situation.)

Change pin configuration in linear position DIO daq assistent

Hi,
I have an Device for interferometric Displacement Measurements that gives out an digital A quad B Signal plus the clock signal (runs at 10MHz).
I wanted to use the DAQ Assistent to calculate the Displacement. The Problem is, if I select the "linear Position" Option it wants me to use the Inputs PFI8 and PFI10 for A and B.
Unfortunately we use a BNC2110 Box which only connects PFI0 - PFI9. Leading to my qestion: Is there a way to change that Pin-Configuration?
If not, are there complete vi´s available for downliad where I can select the Inputs for A,B and clk and that at least gives me the A and B Signal in Labview?
Setup-wise we are using a 6259 M-Series PCI DAQ-Card which should be able to handle 10MHz.
I would be really happy if anyone can help me with that!
Cheers,
Daniel

Hi Daniel!
Unfortunately the DAQmx assistant is limited to a small subset of the DAQmx capabilities. If you want to change the PFI assignment for a counter task you have to use the low level DAQmx functions provided in the Measurment I/O > DAQmx palette. I attached a small example where you can see how PFI for a Counter Linear Position Task are assigned with a DAQmx property node. Hope that helps!

How to use counters of PCI 6251 to count the number of pulses

Hello,
I have inputs from an optical encoder {pulse train} and i need to count the number of pulses for a short period of time to estimate the speed of the DC motor. Could you please tell me how to use the counters in PCI 6251 DAQ. I found something on DAQ STC, whichs says the input pulse should be connected to PF0 {ctr source}, but i have query where do i get the output {number of pulses counted in a particular period of time}.
Looking for your reply.
Thanks & Regards,
bsnr

Hi bsnr,
Thanks for the post!
In MAX (Measurement and Automation Explorer), if you find the device (DAQmx devices) and right-click, you can select pinouts - which should contain a table telling you which pins are what PFI lines.
Then, in labVIEW, you need to generate some code to use the choosen coutner in a task to count digital edges. If your not sure on this, go to Help>>Find Examples>>Hardware I/O>>DAQmx>>Counters.. and take a look at some of the code provide.
ps. It seems (maybe just your wording), but your expecting the counter output pin to provide the number of counted edges - this isn't the case.
Please let me know what you think?
Kind Regards,
Kind Regards
