Reading temperature using 5508TC adac card

i am using 5508TC adac card to read the temperature from the thermocouples fitted in the pipelines. I developed the application. but i dont know exactly what it is reading. because the temp. is 29°F and it is displaying 0.01. and i also dont know what this 0.01 is? whether it is voltage or some garbage. how to read this temperature into the computer.
thanks,
kalpesh

Hi,
The card that you are using is actually outputting voltage reading which is natural. Depending on the type of thermocouple (K, T, etc.) that you are using, you have to convert the voltage into corresponding temperature using the thermocouple co-efficients.

  • "Reading temperatures from using 5508TC adac board"

    I am measuring temperature using the "5508TC adac" board on Windows2000.I have a "K-Type" Thermocouples, but I can't select the channels from the Measurement and Automation Explorer window using Labview 7.0 software.When I click on NI-DAQmx in Labview 7.0;I clicked on "Analog Input" then Temperature, Thermocuples then it says "no supported devices found".I even installed an updated version of NI-DAQ drivers, but I'm still facing the same problem. What do I need to resolve the problem?

    I'm sorry but Measurement & Automation Explorer is a National
    Instruments software and knows only about National Instruments hardware.
    The same applies to the DAQmx functions.
    You will have to ask the manufacturer of your board for a config
    uration
    utility for your hardware and also some LabVIEW drivers.

  • Can I use LabVIEW to load data directly into system memory? The serial card I'm using isn't supported by NI nor does VISA recognize it. I'm using a Win32 function to read the data from the card and now I want it to go directly to system memory.

    Can I use LabVIEW to load data directly into system memory from a VI? The serial card I'm using isn't supported by NI nor does VISA recognize it. I'm using a Call Library function to read the data from the card and now I want it to go directly to system memory.
    The data is being received at 1Mbps.
    Thanks

    Two questions:
    One, if it's a serial card, then presumably it gives you more serial ports, like COM3, COM4, etc. If so, VISA would see the COM ports, and not the card directly. The drivers for the card should make it so that you see the extra serial ports from the OS. If you don't see the extra COM ports from VISA, then it sounds like the drivers for the card are not installed properly. Do the extra COM ports show up in Device Manager?
    Two, you said that you're using a Call Library function to get the data and you want to put it into system memory. Errr.... you just read the data and you have it in memory by definition. Are you saying you need a way to parse the data so it shows up on a graph or something?

  • Can an sd card reader be used on an iphone to transfer pictures?

    I was looking at the sd card readers for iPhone and I am not sure if they are going to work like I thought.  Can you use it to transfer pictures from the phone to thee card and then to either a computer or a photo kiosk?   If so, does anyone know of a good one under $20?  This is for an iPhone 4s.  Thank you so much for the help!  GOD bless<><

    If you have a Windows PC, when you connect your iPhone to it, the iPhone should appear in Windows Explorer and My Computer as a camera.  You can copy the photos to your PC using either of the PC programs.  I mention this method because you seem to want to be able to move your photos as inexpensively as possible. 
    I have never used an SD card reader with the iPhone so, Ill leave that question to others that have experience with this setup.

  • Can I use a smart card reader to avoid typing the master password?

    Does anyone know if there's a way of using some physical card reader to avoid having to type the 'Master Password' when prompted for one?
    I understand some people use CAC readers to access certain sites but I'm wondering if there exists some extension/software that can be used to achieve this.
    If relevant, I'm running Firefox 4.0.1 on Windows 7 x64.

  • NI PXI 4351 read temperature

    Hi,
    I'm trying to read temperature from TBX-68T connected to NI PXI-4351.
    I see PXI-4351 in my hardware explorer, it show me right data in test panel.
    But, I can't found any tools for reading temperature in LabView!
    I installed drivers for NI PXI 4351
    http://joule.ni.com/nidu/cds/view/p/id/285/lang/en
    but still noresults. Driver didn't contain any examples for reading.
    I use LabView 10 and I have NI DAQ Traditional 7.4.4
    so, I confused. How read temperature?

    Hi kmcdevitt,
    The SC Express product family was specifically designed to take advantage of the PXIe architecture and therefore the timing circuitry on the PXIe-4353 is not designed to be compatible with the PXI platform.  There are no plans to design any of the SC Express products in the PXI form factor.
    Jared,
    Please explain what it is that makes the PXIe-4353 so special that there can not be a PXI-4353.
    This 32-Channel, 24-Bit, Thermocouple Input Module does 90 S/s/ch sample rate in high-speed mode or 1 S/s/ch sample rate in high-resolution mode.  Surely you are not claming the the PXI platform's architecture and timing circuitry can not hadle the troughput generated by the 32 channels of 24bit data at 90Hz.
    Jared, it is not a pleasent fealing to be prommised that the new signal conditioning cards are going to be made for your soon to be purchased PXI-1045 chassises, and later find out from an Applications Engineer Jared that it has been in the plans to never make PXI versions of signal conditioning cards.  How would you feel if you purchased about 30 PXI-1045 18 slot chassises with PXI Embedded RT controllers with the promiss that if you bought the controllers and chassises that NI would continue to develope new Signal Conditioning and Other PXI Cards for your chassises.  Just buy them, and the new PXI cards will come.  How would you feel when you were told to be patient and just wait till next years NI week.  How patient would you be after the second year of being told to be patient until the next year's NI week?  How patient would you be after the third year of being told to be patient until the next year's NI week?  I have been recently asked to be patient again.  NI Week 2012, there may be something.  And now you tell me that there will never be anything.
    I just don't buy it that there is something about the PXIe architecture and therefore the timing circuitry that is required for 90 Hz data.

  • How can I set up different profiles (accounts??) using the credit card?

    Each member of my family would like to have there own itunes profile (or account??), but we'd like to use the same credit card. Is this possible? Does each family member need a unique email address for log in.
    Thanks
    Markoman

    So my sister and I have our own separate iTunes accounts, and she has her set up with her credit card. She let me use her credit card on mine but it keeps saying the security code is invalid. Then the credit card company called about her credit card activity. Are you sure it's not impossible to use the same credit card on our different accounts?

  • How do I use my gift card instead of my credit card?

    I have always used gift cards to buy my music off of Itunes, but when I recently used it I only had 25 cents left. So when I clicked on the music to buy it, it showed me all of my account information and asked for the security number to the credit card that I have listed under my account. But my parents didn't want me using their credit card, so my mom bought me some more gift cards. I redeemed the money on the cards, but for whatever reason it still takes me to the "Billing Info" and asks for the security number, even though I have money already in my account from the gift cards. Until then, I am unable to purchase any new music. How do I switch back to using my gift cards and not the credit card?

    It is a security measure that has been implemented in iTunes.
    When it asks for the security info on the CC, make sure to uncheck *Do not use this card for this purchase* (or something similar).
    It will then use the gift card for the purchase.

  • How do I use my gift card balance on Apple TV to rent movies

    I have balance on my I tunes gift card that I entered on my apple account.
    When I try to purchase a movie on Apple TV it wants to charge my credit card.
    How do I add gift card to Apple TV ?

    If it's signed into the same iTunes account then it will use the credit automatically, is there a message that is giving you the impression it wants to use your credit card?

  • I would like to buy an app but when I do it says there is an account billing problem and it brings me to my billing account but I want to use my iTunes card, how do I fix that

    If you have a credit card on your account then it has to be a valid card - do you get the 'none' option on your account so that you can remove the card, or is there an error show anywhere on the card payment details screen so that you can correc it ?
    As long as you are buying content for yourself and not trying to gift, then your balance should be automatically used for its purchase.

  • Can I use a gift card to pay of my credit card balance? I bought a song off iTunes and I forgot to redeem my gift card before doing so.

    Hi everyone,
    As you can tell from the topic of the discussion, I was just wondeirng if there's any way to use a gift card to pay off a credit card balance?
    It's not a huge problem as I only bought one song, lol, but it'd be nice to know if I can use my gift card to pay off the balance. I forgot to redeem my gift card before purchasing >_<. Smart I know. So please, if some one knows the answer to reply back. Thanks!

  • HT201454 How do you handle family members outside the household being a part of the Family Sharing program?  I don't want them using my credit card for itunes and/or apps on their phones - just want to be able to share pictures/videos.

    Wanted to include my sister and parents in the Family Sharing group under the iCloud app, but I don't want them using my credit card for their purchases.  We just wanted to be able to share pictures and/or videos and find each other, if necessary.  Is there a way around my card being the default for them when they go to purchase something?

    If you don't want your sister to make purchases on your credit card, then Family Sharing is not an appropriate way to do what you want. You can use Find my Friends to locate each other and you can use Shared Photo Streams to share photos.

  • How do you reset the security questions when you havent used a credit card to make any purchases, only the gift cards. Apple support will not help me even though i know my account and apple id and password?

    Have a new computer and now cannot access itunes without knowing the answers to the security questions. Apple support cannot reset as we have never used a credit card when purchasing prior, have only used gift cards. Can provide apple id and password and all other account details but still no help. Have we to open a new3 account and start again, this means losing a lot of credit on the existing account?!

    I have the same problem. I didn't set a rescue email for some reason. To find out weather you hav a rescue password: Go to appleid.apple.com, sign in, go to manage account and then password and security if you do there will be a link below telling you that you can send an email to it. If not the link won't be there. Hope this helps.

  • How do I use multiple GPIB cards in one computer?

    I have two GPIB cards installed in my computer. One has aprimary address 0 and the other is 1. The card with adress 0 works fine but when I try to communicate with some instrument via the second card, the instructions are not carried out. However MAX ha detected the presence of instruments on both the cards, but it is only that when the second card(address 1) is used the intructions are not carried to the instrument. Please advise on how to select the card while sending an instruction? Or is it that I can use only one card at a time??

    When you say that your commands aren't carried out, could you describe what commands you are sending, and what error is being returned?
    When you say that you cannot communicate with the second instrument, are you using the 488.2 Communicator in MAX?
    Did you make sure that all the settings for the second GPIB board in the properties page are correct?
