Third party DAQ units compatibility?

?Hello,
             I am curious to know that can we use any third party DAQ units rather than NI products. For example, NI USB 6008 or some other device from NI. AT the same time, If I choose any third party device for DAQ then can I use DAQ assistance or DAQmx functions?

Then how can i acquire the data and what functions will do the job as DAQ Assistance or DAQmx?

  • Interfacin​g LabView compatible DAQ board w/ third party DAQ boards

    Dear NI-team and board-members,
    In my current project I'm using a third party Direct Digital Controller which supports customizable Programmable Logic Control (PLC) via a graphical programming software. Therefore, I'm acquisitioning temperatures (etc.) from my miniature-HVAC application via physically attached and mounted sensors, connect them to a dedictaed analog input (0-10VDC typically) and in further assign the analog input to some selected PLC modules with the help of the graphical programming software, and finally after doing the computation (calculator block) or control (Proportional-Integral-Derivative block) I assign the resulting control signal to a dedicated analog output (typically 0-10VDC as well).
    So far for the previous history, NOW I actually want to be able, to manipulate these analog values in a way, that I'm not interested in the physical acquisitioned value from my real-time operating equipment (e.g. temperature sensors), more than that, I'm interested in assigning a certain level (e.g. +5 VDC) to that dedicated analog input, which in turn would represent a temperature e.g. in this simple case (+5VDC) 50degF.
    Now to the questions, can I possibly interface the physical ANALOG INPUT (0-10VDC) of my third party DDC unit, with the ANALOG OUTPUTS (0-10VDC) of a NI DAQ board? In that way, I'd be able and with some additional help of LabView to program time intervals, where I raise the voltage level every 5 minutes by 1VDC, and in turn can proceed with my intended purpose.
    To sum that up, are there physical limitations (e.g. ground loops, damage equipment, shorting) connecting an analog output of one board, to the analog input of another board?
    Also, which DAQ of NI might be best suited for my intended purpose, using a NI DAQ board for "simulating" temperature values (etc.) onto the analog inputs of another third party board.
    Thank you,
    Sandro

    Hi Sandro,
    If both boards are in the same computer I wouldn't be too worried about ground loops or damaging equipment. The ground reference to the AO board will be the same ground reference as the computer and AI board. You would have to check with the specs for your third party AI board to see what overvoltage protection it has and whether or not our AO board could give a voltage high enough to damage it.
    I would suggest one of our AO boards to do the job. Depending on what kind of control and precision you want, we have static update boards available in PCI form. The static board will be cheaper but you are limited to software timed voltage updates (instead of clocked buffered waveform output).
    http://sine.ni.com/apps/we/nioc.vp?cid=12550〈=US
    I would suggest the AO board (PCI-67xx) instead of our M series multifunction boards because the AO boards have 8 or more output channels. The multifunction boards only have two output channels.

  • Third party purchase unit of measure issue.

    Hi Friend,
    I have created sales order for third party process unit of measure in sales order is in Meter  qty is 3.7 mater.
    But PR & PO id created in the unit of measure Piece i.e. 3.7 pieces.
    GR is already done for qty 3 pieces. Now when user is trying to do GR for qty 0.7 pieces we are getting error message serial number management allows only whole number.
    How can I do GR for this. Also I want to know what setting I need to do to have PO in unit of measure M i.e. Mater.
    Thanks,
    Kiran

    Its all about your material master unit of measure.
    In Material master - Basic data 1 view - Base Unit of measure will be picked in PR.
    In Material master - Purchasing - order Unit  will be picked in PO (If blank, then base unit of measure)
    In Material master - Sales Organization 1 - Sales unit will be picked in Sales Order.
    And for your error message, please search in SCN, you will get many thread regarding the error.

  • Installing Third Party Audio Units

    Wonder if anybody can help. I have just bought a G5 Dual 2.3 and Logic Pro 7.1 I can not find any way of "installing" third party plug ins. I have checked the ones I have ( Waves Platinum for AU for OSX ) and they are valid for Logic 7. I have put several plugs in Applications , but they are not even appearing in Logic Audio Units Manager. Im probably missing something really simpe here. Im also having the same type of problem trying out "demo" versions of some new AU instruments e.g. X treme FX and MOTU MX4 Soft Synth ( that is appearing in Audio Unit Manager but will not open, so maybe its not valid for Logic yet?) Pleeeeeeease Help. Thanks. Paul

    Hey Paul & Welcome!
    I don't quite understand what you mean when you say you can not find a way of "installing".
    You should have installers for your AU's. If you doubleclick one of those, it should take you through the installation process. Apologies if this is what you have done, but I become a little suspicious when you say you have "put several plugs in your Applications folder". This is sometimes the right procedure when it comes to installing certain applications (e.g. Reason), but rarely or never the case with plug ins. You need an installer.
    Now, If indeed you have gone through the installation process, it is still possible that the plug in question won't show up as available. As you rightly point out, it may be rejected by Logics AU Manager.
    Check in your following folders:
    HD/Library/Audio/Plug Ins/Components
    and,
    Home/Library/Audio/Plug Ins/Components
    wich is were your AU's are supposed to be located.
    If they are not there, they are not installed. If they are there, they should be scanned by AU Manager and be validated or refuted.
    When you have checked the folders, you can open Logic and run AU Manager and check the status of your installed AU's. The ones that have failed or crashed can still be selected by checking the little box, with the risk of making Logic unstable. You will indeed get a warning every time you open logic, telling you how many failed AU's you're currently running.
    So, check for installers, check your component folders and cross reference with the AU manager.
    Again, sorry if this is at a beginner level for you, I could not quite make out where you're at.
    Good Luck!

  • How to use a Third Party DAQ evaluation board/ module

    Hi to everyone,
     This question may have occuerd earlier but I have never got a clear and direct answer for this.
    ISSUE : I have a High Speed DAQ module DC1371A evaluation board from Linear technology [ http://cds.linear.com/docs/Demo%20Board%20Manual/d​c1371A.pdf ].
    Question: Since DAQ/DAQmx allows only Ni devices to be interfaced, how can I configure this module to work with labview.This module has a software Pscope [ http://www.linear.com/designtools/software/ . How do I proceed.
    Thank you guys,

    I asked her and she told Linear Technology wont provide any kinda drivers to communicate with LV. If needed I have to use their PSCOPE program that displays the signals etc.
    This is bad.
    Can you guys please suggest any other DAQ module with ADC ( 14 bit and 250 msps) and a DSP board with it to process the data, Both of which I can communicate with LV without any hassle.
    I am tired of waiting for other companies to offer some way to communicate with LV. or Please advice HOW TO GO ABT SETTING UP A HIGH SPEED ADC AND DAQ MODULE. I think its better I start from scratch.

  • IPod Classic Compatibility With Third-Party Sound Dock

    I own a TEAC Micro HI-FI CD-X10i and I was wondering if it would work with an iPod classic 160GB. I was considering purchasing an iPod classic (I already own a 5.5 G 80GB iPod). Has anybody tried using third-party audio systems with docks? If you have, please respond.

    Hey Funky,
    I have a Bose SoundDock (from 2005) and my Classic-160 works like a charm with it. It also works fine with my Altec-Lansing inMotion portable speaker unit.

    How much of a hurry are you in, and are you considering upgrading to Lion?
    File Vault on Snow Leopard only encrypts home folders you select, and doesn't work well with Time Machine.
    But Lion will have "full disk encryption" of local or external disks.  See File Vault 2 here: http://www.apple.com/macosx/whats-new/features.html

  • HealthKit Compatibility of Third Party Products

    Hello,
    With iOS8 being released in two days I'm curious about support by third party products for the new HealthKit framework.  I've seen statements about Health app and HealthKit supporting standard bluetooth medical devices but I don't know what "standard" is (any LE BT 4.0?  specific bluetooth communication standards used by medical devices?).  I've also seen many references to support by third parties like WiThings but the context is never clear to me as to whether that's an example of the type of companies that could integration; that they've announced they WILL integrate; and/or whether that applies to future product releases or existing devices.  I'd like to pick up a few products to work with this new framework but right now I lack clarity as to which (if any) current devices will have this support.  I don't want to throw everything away in six months when the wave of actual HealthKit supporting devices come out (or natively supporting of the Health app versus having to keep using the menagerie of other apps to pass data back and forth through Health).
    Anyone have insight on who does or does not support this?  Is the an equivalent to MFI that is a HealthKit specific certification?
    Thanks!

    still technically an accurate response but doesn't get me where I'm hoping to go
    I've done some searching and didn't find anything but I'm appealing to the discussion forum in case anyone else knows of anything or has better search skills than I. 
    So, we've established that Apple doesn't have a big list, that's OK.  We all agree that manufacturers would probably have this data somewhere they control.  Here are some more specific questions that I hope clarify what I'm after:
    Is anyone aware of third party manufacturers that have stated HealthKit or Health app compatibility in their current product line?  (press release, statement on web site, have it on good authority, etc...)
    Does anyone know if Apple has claimed support for a specific BlueTooth protocol for their native support of BT medical devices in either HealthKit or Health app?  Looking for the possibility to just select any device that adheres to that specific BT protocol.
    Is there any certification that third party manufacturers have/will obtain for items that are compatible with HealthKit or Health app?  (a la MFI)
    Thanks!
    PS Meg: I hope this doesn't sound snarky, I appreciate you taking time to respond.

  • Mavericks compatibility issues with third party displays

    I just upgraded from mountain lion to os x mavericks v10.9.3.  I use a three-year-old macbook pro with two peripheral third-party displays, each of which is connected to a Diamond adapter which I connect to a Belkin hub that connects to the computer.  I had no problems with Mountain Lion after I upgraded from Snow Leopard once I downloaded the Diamond adapter drivers lost in the upgrade. 
    Now that I've upgraded to mavericks, only one of my two peripheral displays is receiving a signal.   An apple tech advisor suggested that mavericks might be incompatible with the Belkin hub.  I haven't been able to reach Belkin on this as yet. 
    Anyone experience this issue and have a fix for it?

  • Third party AU audio units disappear after archive and install

    hey everybody.
    so after an forced unfortunate archive and install, my third party AU have disappeared from DP and Logic. they run fine in standalone. how can i get them back into logic?

    Move them back from your old archive, or reinstall.
    When you do an archive and install, your old system gets removed and a new fresh system put in place. If you had plugins in the system components directories, obviously they aren't gonna be there on a new fresh system.

  • Compatability of LabView RT with Third Party( NOT N.I ) PXI chassis

    I want to use NI LabView and LabView RT, some PXI chassis of N.I and
    some PXI chassis of Third Party( not N.I ) for diversity, How I will Install
    Pharlap ETS ( LabView RT ) on those third party PXI's.
    More simply
    Third party PXI chassis and controllers support LabView RT or not?
    Note: Mark Andre Hary [email protected] of Sensing Systems LLC answer to this question as:
    "You can't.  I think NI bought Pharlap, and they do not offer board support packages (BSPs) for non-NI PXI controllers.  There is no way to get LabVIEW-RT running on a controller not purchased from NI.  You will have to use a standard RTOS like Linux,VxWorks, or QNX.
    Regards

    Hello,
    You can install LabVIEW RT ETS on a third party PXI controller just as if it were a PC.  Check the requirements that a PC needs to have in order to run LabVIEW RT ETS.
