How to connect external sensors to labview?

i want to ask How can i connect external sensors to NI labview for my final year project.? here are my lists of sensors:
a. Temperature sensor (LM35)
b. Humidity sensor (HH10D)
c. Light sensor (LDR)
d. Moisture sensor

I've used the NI's bread board (with DAQ assistant initially) when I was in school. We used it for temp, light, and etc... measurements, the whole system is very straight forward. I would say having the option to simulate signals is a big plus in that. From what you described, I don't think the "slower" rate of data acquisition will disturb you at all. But more information is needed on your sensors and  general functional spec. 
@ NIquist & RTSLVU, please correct me if I'm misleading/wrong :-)
Is that the ELVIS stuff?  Very neat but kind of pricey (unless the school is paying! )
Again, the low-cost USB DAQs from NI or MC are the way to go for the OPs project.  I am assuming that he has enough electronics background to make simple signal conditioning circuits for his sensor chips.

  • How to connect external trigger PCI-1433

    Hi all:
    I met the same problem as this old post: https://forums.ni.com/t5/Machine-Vision/How-to-connect-external-trigger-PCIe-1433/m-p/1677560/highli...
    however the post did not give solution.
    I am having an issue getting the external trigger( from PCI 6259) to work with a cameralink camera, a PCIe-1433 card . The PCI 6259 is connected to BNC 2111, the output trigger signal from CTR0 is connected to the SMB connector on the 1433 card and is providing pulse train at TTL voltages (0-5V).  Using the MAX SOFTWARE and under the Acquisition tab I have CC1 set to external 0, however the camera is not receiving this external trigger. The camera is Basler 4096-140km.
    I measured the ouiput signal from CTL0, the sigal seems good.
    I tried RTSI trigger before, failded. I thought SMB should be more straight forward, seems I was wrong.
    Looking forward to reply!

    Bobjojo,
    You will actually need to affect the properties of both the camera and the frame grabber to take advantage of this triggering mode. I found a document that contains a good run down of the process to acquire in this mode (linked below). As far as the programming for the acquisition is concerned, the frames will be built at the driver level for the specified frame height. This means that the IMAQ driver will composite the line scans for you, and any simple acquisition (the document shows using the Vision Acquisition Express VI) will be able to pull the image into LabVIEW.

    how to connect external keyboard to the garage band if its possible,
      is any body tried ? I have roland e66 keyboard and im trying to
       connect with grage band but i dont know thats is possible??

    You can definitely just connect a mouse and keyboard and then an external monitor and it will work. In the power options in the Windows control panel you will have a choice as to what happens when the lid is closed. Set it to "do nothing" and then you can shut the lid of the laptop and use only the external monitor.

  • How to connect external speakers to Satellite A100-451

    Hello,
    I have a Satellite A100-451 (UK) running Vista. I want to connect external speakers. There is a 'headphones' jack on the front (3.5mm jack I think), can I connect external speakers here? The speakers are 'PC Line' with their own power supply and also have a 3.5mm jack plug).
    Thanks
    KK

    You need the audio Line-out put and the headphone jack provides this output.
    In other words you can use this jack to connect the external speakers

  • How to connect external display to iMac

    which port do I use to connect external display to my iMac ?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Depending on the iMac you have, you have different ports: Mini-DVI, Mini DisplayPort or Thunderbolt. Mini DisplayPort is available in 2009 and newer iMacs, and Thunderbolt is available in the Mid 2011 and Late 2012 iMac.
    You have to use one of those ports to connect an external display. You will probably have to look for an adapter, depending on the port the external screen has got

  • How to simulate external hardware in LabView FPGA ?

    Hello,
    I have a NI 7952R connected to a 6583 IO module.
    This IO module is connected to a digital sensor that continuously sends patterned data.
    I am developping the code for the FPGA and I would like to know how to perform a cycle accurate simulation of the whole system.
    There is an example for a cycle accurate simulation of the labView -> FPGA interface, but it doesn't include the behavior of an external hardware connected to the FPGA IO module.
    Now I have a VHDL simulation model (not synthetisable) that describes my sensor. How to include that into the iSim cycle accurate simulation?
    Do I have to alter the 6583 IO module CLIP files by including my sensor description into it?

    Thank you for your answer, I think now we have a common understanding of your intent.
    Your I/O simulation model is integrated via a clip or ip integration node:
    "In addition to VHDL code for the FPGA VI, you must provide simulation models for any IP you include through the CLIP and IP Integration Nodes. You specify the models for CLIP simulation and the IP Integration Node simulation through their configuration wizards."

  • How to connect external trigger PCIe-1433?

    I am having an issue getting the external trigger to work using a cameralink camera, a PCIe-1433 card and a signal generator.  The signal generator is connected to the SMB connector on the 1433 card and is providing a 20 Hz signal with a 20ms pulse width at TTL voltages (0-4V).  From memory, we are using the MAX software and under the Acquisition tab I have CC1 set to external, however the camera is not receiving this external trigger.
    I've attached a rough diagram of our setup.
    What could my issues be?  My thoughts are:
    1) Are there other settings in MAX I need to ensure?  I know the SMB connector can be an input or an output.  How can I make sure this is set to input?
    2) My input signal is 0-4V which is TTL, but does the signal need to be 0-5V?
    Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you.

    Hello tuckturn
    Thank you very much for getting in touch with us. 
    1)  In Measurement and Automation Explorer, the default is an input.  You would need to use LabVIEW to change the SMB connector to be an output. Can you please show me a screenshot of your camera attributes in Measurement and Automation Explorer.
    2)  Where does this input signal come from?  Do you have a 5V TTL compliant output to test this?  Can you please provide me the specification for whatever device is outputting the voltage?
    Thanks again.
    Sincerely,

  • How to connect mysql database to labview and plot the graph

    Hi all,
     I am doing my final year project about labview. I need to connect my mysql workbench database to labview and plotting two sinwave in same graph. I can already connected my labview to mysql and showing the data in labview table.But I need to plot the two sinwave in on graph according to table data. Eg: table data&colon;      timestamp   wind speed  wind direction

      The attachemtn vi is about inserting file and plot the graph. And now I  want plotting the sinwave using table data and the  wind speed Y-axis,wind direction Y-axis in both side of my graph and the X-axis is showing the whole day timing like 00:00:00-24:00:00.  Can anybody combine these 2 vi to polting the graph according table data not according to file data.Thanks

  • How to connect external 24'' display to a Satellite A210?

    I am using an lcd tv as an external display for my satellite a210, connected with a vga cable. But I cannot just use the external monitor, I can only use both at the same time. Also, the maximum analysis I can get by using them at the same time is 1280x800, because that's the laptop's highest analysis I guess. Are there any drivers I need to download or is it something I can't resolve?

    Hi
    Generally speaking you can switch between the devices using the FN + F5 key combination.
    It should be possible to output the video signal on both devices (notebook & external screen) and only on external screen.
    I think you should change the external screen resolution to a lower level
    As mentioned above, the 24 supports high pixel rate and I would reduce this to the same like supported by notebook screen.
    PS: you can also update the graphic card driver if an newer is available.

  • How to connect external hard drive and DV camera

    I have just bought a macbook pro with only one firewire 400 port. My question is, what is the best way to connect up an external hard drive and a DV camera so I can import video to Final Cut. Should I be plugging the camera directly into the external hard drive's firewire port and conecting the hard drive to mac via USB or connecting DV to mac via Firewire and then mac to hard drive via USB? Or does it make no difference!
    Thanks in advance

    If the drive has two firewire ports, connect the camera to one FW port on the back of the drive and connect the drive to the computer using the other port.
    If the drive does not have two firewire ports, you'll need an Expresscard 34 firewire card to create a second firewire bus. The card goes in the slot on the side of the computer. Hook up either the camera or the drive to it.
    The cards can be found online for a reasonable sum of money.
    Do not use USB.
    Good luck.
