Tip for DAQ acquisition...

I must measure the time between two signal ON -> OFF and then OFF -> ON from a Digital Input of a NI6034E (multifunction board). My idea was to execute a software polling over this digital input channel, waiting for a state change, and then start to count pulses of the source of a counter (on a 6601 board) with a time base of 20MHz. I want to connect this input on gate of that counter, but I'm not able to do it. Anyone has a tip for me? Are there samples on internet?
Thanks at all.

P.S. I use LabWindows/CVI for my application...

Peo,
there is a much easier way to do the trick.
The NI 6034E has its own 24-bits counters. You can use one of these 2 counters to measure the period of your digital signal.
To do this there are a couple of ways, depending on how fast is your signal changing state (frequency):
1)LOW Frequency Signal: You will need to connect your digital signal to the Counter's Gate Pin (say pin 3/GPCTR0_GATE) and select 20MHz internal timebase as a Source. This allows you to count how many 50ns-period pulses fit within one single period of your signal. The period of the signal will be (count+/-1)*50ns.
2)HIGH Frequency Signal: in this case the configuration in (1) will lead to unprecise results. The best way to measure a very short period is to connect th
e digital signal to the Counter's Source pin (pin 37/GPCTR0_SOURCE) and use the internal 100kHz timebase as the gate signal. This allows you to count how many periods of your signal fit within a 10 usec period. The period of your signal will be 10 usec / (count+/-1).
As far as examples are concerned, you can find different examples depending on the API you choose to develop with.
Traditional NI-DAQ
Find them on your machine running CVI in the folder
..\National Instruments\CVI71\samples\daq\Ctr
Look at the examples named
STCsingleBufPeriodMeasure.PRJ
STCsinglePeriodMeasure.PRJ
NI-DAQmx
Find the examples for DAQmx under

  • Standalone application for data acquisition using NI DAQ card

    I have made a standalone application in labview GUI for data acquisition and signal processing. if i have to run this application in any other computer what all softwares should be installed other than labview runtime engine...NI DEVICE DRIVER CD alone is to be installed or do i have to install any other software for data acquisition using NI daq card??
      thanks and regards
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    You should only need the run time engine, The device drivers for the device, maybe need VISA drivers if you are doing serial or something of that nature, You may need the channels or tasks created in NI measurements and automation if you created them there.
    There may be other things that you will need depending on what you include in your code and what tool kits that you have installed.

  • Multithreading and daq acquisition

    I�m trying to run 2 DAQ�s (PCI MIO 16 XE) devices in one PC (Win XP) to acquire N-data samples from 5 AI channels each using LV 7.0. For the acquisition to starts, each device is independently triggered (5KS/s) . It works fine and I can get the data. The problem is that the second DAQ starts the acquisition probably only after the first has finished its acquisition. (I cannot be sure about that because actually I do not know how to get the start time of an acquisition). At least the DAQ�s are starting the acquisition at different times and this could be a problem if the time difference is to big( >500 micro seconds).
    1. is this a classical Multithreading problem? Is there a solution?
    2. how can I assure that both DAQ�s start
    the acq. nearly at the same time?
    3. how can I get the start time of the Acq. ?
    4. if I have to use 4 DAQ�s on one PC will this work? Known problems?
    Thanks
    Alberto

    Let me try to explain my problem using the DAQmx example VI �Cont Acq&Graph Voltage-Ext Clk- Dig Start.vi�.
    Making few changes to the above VI, you can use it as a Sub-Vi. ( I also limited the number of scans to 1000). I used 2 PCI MIO 16XE-10 devices and wrote a program using two of this sub.vi. I used one trigger signal and one clock for both devices and scanned the same channel. As input I used a Sinus voltage. After the program runs, If I plot the obtained data time independent, i.e the x-axis is now the scan number rather than time (relative or absolute) I get a shift in the signals of about 90 clocks, this means that for example, the scan position for the max amplitude came for one device 90 clocks later than for th
    e first device. This is unacceptable for my application
    In other test , If I just did copy the block diagram of the example in a new VI twice and made the necessary changes (trigger channel, channel names, etc). Now I got NO shift in the Graph. Both sinus waves were exactly the same. But I still have no idea about the difference on the start time of both devices. I suppose, in this case both devices started at the same time. But how can I be sure of that?
    Without the possibility of using that Sub-Vi�s and because I have to use 1, 2 or 4 devices selectively, my program will be looking very complicated. I�m sure there must be a better way to solve this.
    Thanks

  • Last call for DAQ photos

    I�m looking for some impressive DAQ photos in which LabVIEW is used.
    Prentice Hall will be publishing my �LabVIEW for Data Acquisition� book
    later this year, and I�d like to include such DAQ photos in this book.
    In particular, I�d like photos of NI�s DAQ hardware, and/or the
    equipment to which it�s connected. Relevant front panel screenshots
    would be nice, as well; if you�re Windoze-impaired, like me, you can
    get a screenshot by bringing the LabVIEW front panel to the front,
    hitting , copying to Paint, saving to 24-bit BMP,
    then zipping it for file sizes over 2 Mbytes. 1600 x 1200 resolution is
    good for publishing non-screenshots, such as photos taken from a
    digital camera or scanned photos. JPG, BMP, GIF, or any
    other popular
    file format I can use.
    If I choose your photo, I�ll credit you in the book, hopefully right by
    the photo if the publisher allows.

  • Is "Easy I/O for daq" library threadsafe ?

    Is "Easy I/O for daq" library threadsafe ?

    Hello Hopeula,
    The library "Easy I/O for daq" uses the DLL NI-DAQ which is threadsafe.

  • I am using PCI-6033E IO card and i would like to send 5 volts (high logic ) to the trigger box. the trigger box will trigger the frame grabber card, that i am using for image acquisition.

    i am using PCI-6033E IO card and i would like to send 5 volts (high logic ) to the trigger box. the trigger box will trigger the frame grabber card, that i am using for image acquisition.

    Hello;
    The first thing you need to figure out is the shape of the trigger pulse needed.
    In case you just need a logic high TTL pulse, you can use one of the digital lines of your DAQ device.
    In case you need a pulse train (multiple trigger pulses), you will need to configure one of the general purpose counters to accomplish that task.
    You can find examples in both Labview and NI-DAQ showing how to program your DAQ board to accomplish both approaches.
    Hope this helps.

  • I have question about hooking up an external hdd to a time capsule and still have my printer hooked up as well. Anyone got any tips for me, how to do it and what brand of harddrive that will work best for me 1 or 2 TB

    i have question about hooking up an external hdd to a time capsule and still have my printer hooked up as well. Anyone got any tips for me, how to do it and what brand of harddrive that will work best for me 1 or 2 TB

    You just need a powered hub.. if you already use one then fine.
    Plug in just about any external hard disk will work fine. Format has to be readable by the TC.. ie fat32.. or much better HFS+.. plug it into a Mac to prepare the drive.
    Pick whatever size suits.. nowadays 2TB are most economical.
    WD, Seagate have goobled up all the minor players.. so pick one.
    Whatever suits your budget and asthetics.
    NOTE.. The USB on the TC is fine for printers.. IMHO it is the wrong way to go with USB disks.. use the internal disk of the TC.. USB is less than half the native speed plugged into a Mac.. TC to USB is slow.. far slower than internal drive.. or using external drive as external.

  • Tips for blue screen (BSOD) errors with Windows Vista and Intel Turbo Memory on X61/X61s

    Important note: The symptoms and solutions described below address only a small subset of the possible causes for blue screen errors, aka BSOD.
    This information can help address blue screen errors specifically
    related to Turbo Memory, but may not solve errors related to other
    issues. Please read through the instructions completely, make sure they
    apply to your system, and after attempting the solutions please post
    back with your feedback for the community.
    Some users may experience random blue screen errors with ThinkPad
    systems running Windows Vista with Intel Turbo Memory hardware. These
    blue screens may occur during normal usage on the system or they may
    occur when booting into Windows Vista. Blue screens related to the
    Intel Turbo Memory hardware may reference a stop code of 8086 with
    memory address locations of {0, 0, 0, 0}.
    There are two main steps that you can take to help resolve blue screen issues related to Intel Turbo Memory.
    Step 1: Update Intel Turbo Memory Driver
    If the driver version is before version 1.0.1.1004-7.0.3.1001, please
    update to this version.
    To determine what version of the Intel Turbo Memory driver is installed:
    1.    Click Start, then click Control Panel.
    2.    Click System and Maintenance.
    3.    Click System.
    4.    Click Device Manager.
    5.    Expand the Storage controllers category.
    6.    Double-click Intel Flash Cache Logic Chip.
    7.    Click the Driver tab. Then you will see the driver version (for example, 1.0.1.1004).
    The new driver and installation instructions can be found here.
    Note: The Intel Matrix Storage Driver is updated with this package.
    Step 2: BIOS version
    If your BIOS version is older than those listed below, please update to the version listed.
    How to check your BIOS version:
    Turn off the system.
    Turn on the system.
    While the To interrupt normal startup, press the blue ThinkVantage button message is displayed at the lower-left area of the screen, press the F1 key.
    The
    BIOS Setup Utility menu will be displayed. If you have set a supervisor
    password, the BIOS Setup Utility menu appears after you enter the
    password.
    Check BIOS Version and Embedded Controller Version.
    Turn off the system.
    System BIOS versions:
    ThinkPad X61 or X61s - BIOS version 1.06 (7NET25WW)
    Please
    remember that these updates do not solve every possible system blue
    screen, but they do resolve several problems related to the Intel Turbo
    Memory driver.

    X60 Tablet SXGA+ primary, Z61p fully loaded workhorse

    Dear Tim,
    First off, many thanks for the tips for resolving BSOD with Vista + Turbo Memory on X61.  I've been suffering from this BSOD for countless times since I bought in my X61 7673-CW9 in April 2008.
    Even prior to having the pleasure to visit this wonderful forum, I followed both steps as indicated, and updated my Intel Turbo Memory driver to 1.5.0.1013 and my BIOS to 7NETB4WW (2.14).  However, the BSOD recurrs.
    For the past two months, I've recovered my system to factory default settings using Rescue and Recovery for over twenty times, each time with the latest Intel Turbo Memory driver and BIOS.  Notwithstanding that, BSOD recurrs.
    During these painful experiences, I tried two options: 1) making my X61 up-to-date by using System Update and Windows Update (including Vista SP1 or excluding Vista SP1); 2) keeping my X61 the status as factory default (i.e. without updating through either System Update or Windows Update (the automatic/scheduled update function of both is turned off)).  In either case, BSOD recurrs.
    I'm 100% positive that the BSOD does not arise from any hardware or software/firmware I install.  I never install any hardware (e.g. RAM).  And, it is not caused by any software/firmware I install: the clear and unequivocal evidence is that at one time,I encountered BSOD while having restored back to factory setting and booting for the first time.
    I live in Taiwan, and I seldom heard this BSOD here.  All of my friends (as most of Taiwan residents) using X61 operate in Traditional Chinese environment, whereas I operate in English environment.  In Taiwan, when booting for the first time after purchase/recovery, the Windows Vista Business system provides for lanuage choice (Traditional Chinese or English), and, once chosen, the language cannot be altered later on (unless, of course, the system is restored back to factory default settings).
    My system specs are the same as the day I purchased it and are listed below (as I'm not sure if my machine type X61 7673-CW9 is applicable outside Taiwan):
    Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T8300 @ 2.4GHz
    Memory: 1.00 G.B.
    System: Windows Vista Business (32-bit)
    Hard Drive: 160 G.B. @ 7,200 r.p.m.
    And, of course, with Intel Turbo Memory 1 G.B.
    I contacted the Lenovo support staff here in Taiwan for countless times, but they seem to be clueless.  I learned that some friends at this forum downgraded their OS back to Windows XP, but I chose not to.  The reason is simple: my purchase price for X61 7673-CW9 includes the Intel Turbo Memory, which cannot function under Windows XP (at least so far).
    Therefore, I just wish to share my experience here and perhaps I can get some advice from you and other friends here.  Any advice will be tremendously and enormously appreciated.

    I have a Macbook Pro 15" that is three and a half years old.  Although it has slowed a bit, it still runs well and runs every program I need. Any tips for how to keep this old computer running well and in good health?
    I have a 250 gig drive and try to keep at least 100 gigs unused at all times, 4 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM memory, back up with Time Machine and CrashPlan, and have OS X 10.7.3.
    This was my first Mac since an old Apple II GS.  After that I used PC's and got really good at reformatting, replacing drives, reinstalling, defragging, resolving software conflicts, etc.  Since switching back to Macs (five in my extended family now), I haven't had to do any of those things. So, although, the cost is three times as much, the aggrevation has been ten times less.
    I'm retired and living on a fixed income and would therefore like to keep this computer running as opposed to constatntly upgrading.
    That said, any tips?
    Thanks
    It does have a crack on the left of the screen case about 3/4'' up from the bottom.  I've posted that as another question.

    Kappy's Personal Suggestions for OS X Maintenance
    For disk repairs use Disk Utility.  For situations DU cannot handle the best third-party utilities are: Disk Warrior;  DW only fixes problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by directory corruption; Disk Warrior 4.x is now Intel Mac compatible. Drive Genius provides additional tools not found in Disk Warrior.  Versions 1.5.1 and later are Intel Mac compatible.
    OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are scheduled to occur on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. The maintenance scripts run in the early AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep.) If this isn't the case, then an excellent solution is to download and install a shareware utility such as Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacron, or Anacron that will automate the maintenance activity regardless of whether the computer is turned off or asleep.  Dependence upon third-party utilities to run the periodic maintenance scripts was significantly reduced since Tiger.  These utilities have limited or no functionality with Snow Leopard or Lion and should not be installed.
    OS X automatically defragments files less than 20 MBs in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files there's little need for defragmenting the hard drive. As for virus protection there are few if any such animals affecting OS X. You can protect the computer easily using the freeware Open Source virus protection software ClamXAV. Personally I would avoid most commercial anti-virus software because of their potential for causing problems. For more about malware see Macintosh Virus Guide.
    I would also recommend downloading a utility such as TinkerTool System, OnyX 2.4.3, or Cocktail 5.1.1 that you can use for periodic maintenance such as removing old log files and archives, clearing caches, etc.
    For emergency repairs install the freeware utility Applejack.  If you cannot start up in OS X, you may be able to start in single-user mode from which you can run Applejack to do a whole set of repair and maintenance routines from the command line.  Note that AppleJack 1.5 is required for Leopard. AppleJack 1.6 is compatible with Snow Leopard. There is no confirmation that this version also works with Lion.
    When you install any new system software or updates be sure to repair the hard drive and permissions beforehand. I also recommend booting into safe mode before doing system software updates.
    Get an external Firewire drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
    Carbon Copy Cloner
    Data Backup
    Deja Vu
    SuperDuper!
    SyncTwoFolders
    Synk Pro
    Synk Standard
    Tri-Backup
    Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQs on maintenance, optimization, virus protection, and backup and restore.
    Additional suggestions will be found in Mac Maintenance Quick Assist.
    Referenced software can be found at CNet Downloads or MacUpdate.
    Be sure you have an adequate amount of RAM installed for the number of applications you run concurrently. Be sure you leave a minimum of 10% of the hard drive's capacity as free space.
    Adding more RAM, if feasible, and a new, faster hard drive may also help pep it up a little.

  • Tips For Solving the Mac OS X Lion Slowness (Lots of Beach Balls)

    Hi Folks,
    Just a quick list of tips for this issue that some of Mac OS X Lion users face.
    The main symptom is that we get the Beach Ball on almost any task, it takes 4, maybe five times more time to do what we need to do. So depending on the schedule, it can drive us crazy. I was facing that, and started to think that Lion was a Windows Vista relative.
    Please remind that the tips below involve backing up and restoring your system. If you are not careful, you may lose everything. You are responsible for your acts. Be cautious!
    How I solved my issue:
    1) Checked for Disk Permissions and the Disk itself:
    - Applications / Utilities / Disk Utility:
    - Click on your disk, and then VERIFY DISK. If everything is OK, move on. If it is not, REPAIR DISK.
    - Now click on VERIFY DISK PERMISSIONS. If everthing is OK, move. If not, Repair.
    This step 1 is to make sure that your slowness is due to something related to the OS itself and not to permissions/disk.
    If this solves the slowness, then you are OK. Now further steps are necessary. In my case, this just helped a little bit. The beach-balling reduced by 20% only. Still too slow.
    2) Do a full backup of your system.
    I used Time Machine. Make sure you have all of your applications closed. So the backup will be full. If you fail to do a good backup, you will lose everything! Make sure you do a good one. Maybe do it twice on 2 different disks! Now you have been warned.
    3) Do a Full Restore of your entire system.
    Now, get that Install CD that came with your Mac,
    - Put it on your drive, shut down your computer.
    - While holding the C key, press the start button of your Mac. It will boot using the Install CD that came with your Mac.
    To recover your entire system:
    Connect your Time Machine backup disk to your computer. If you’re restoring your system because of a problem with your startup disk, make sure the disk has been repaired or replaced.
    Insert your Mac OS X Install disk, and double-click the Install Mac OS X icon.
    In the Installer, choose Utilities > Restore System from Backup.
    In the Restore Your System dialog, click Continue.
    Select your Time Machine backup volume.
    Select the Time Machine backup you want to restore.
    Follow the onscreen instructions.
    4) Remove the CD, and boot.
    When I did that, the system came back very fast and responsive. No more beach balls (only on the really-intensive tasks), and everything was back to normal.
    5) So, what was it anyways?
    Before doing this Backup/Restore, I was getting lots of DISK I/O ERRORS, specially during boot time (you can check that by shutting down your mac, powering it back on and imediatelly pressing Command-V - Verbose Mode).
    Sure, the first thing in mind was that I had a faulty hard drive, but I checked it several times for errors (via Disk Utility), and nothing showed up.
    So I decided to do a full backup/restore of the system. And it solved it, at least for me.
    My config:
    MacBook Pro (2009 edition) - 5 GB RAM - 640 GB HD - Mac OS X 10.7
    Regards.

    Also my mac will not complete my 5 software updates, no idea which software, but it said it could not do it. Also backing up with time machine had failed twice today. Thanks

  • Transferring DAQ acquisition data via TCP/IP

    Hi all. I am trying to write a program which shares the raw data acquired from a DAQ acquisition device to several computers at the same time. I am using a NI-USB DAQ 6251 to acquire 2 channels of data at 200kS/s on each channel. I need to send this data to other computers in a network so that the each computer can perform different functions on the signal.
    Anyone who has done something similar before? Can you help to advice on how I can go about doing this efficiently and reliabily? I cannot afford the data to be lost during the transfer. I did try using shared variables but it did not work well.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi K.P,
    I hope you are doing well today! The following links should help you get started. If you face any other issues, please be sure to let us know.

  • Exchange 2013 with Outlook 2013 - Not getting pop-up or mail tips for attachments exceeding max size

    Our environment is Exchange Server 2013 CU3 and Outlook 2013 in cached mode. We have a transport rule that sets the max attachment size to 20 mb.
    If someone sends an attachment larger than 20 mb they receive an NDR letting them know the message wasn't delivered because it exceeded the max attachment size. We would like for the user to be prevented from sending the message at all or to at least
    get a mail tip before they try to send the message. The Outlook pop-up message that says "The file you're attaching is bigger than the server allows. Try putting the file in a shared location ..." isn't being generated for us. Not sure if that's
    because we're running Exchange or not. If that pop-up isn't going to work it would be nice if the user could at least get a mail-tip warning them that the attachment exceeds the limit. But it doesn't look likes there's a mail-tip for attachment size, only
    for message size. And, I've found that the message size mail-tip only works if the limit is set on the user. It doesn't seem to work if the limit is set via a transport rule.
    Has anyone else gotten Outlook to present the pop-up or a mail-tip when exceeding attachment size? Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks but I performed all of those trouble shooting prior to posting to the forum. But, I have found the answer!

    I removed the 10mb default limits from the organization config and chose to set the attachment and message size limits in our environment via transport
    rules instead. That is the only way you can actually set an attachment size limit.
    I had read this article several times searching for an answer;
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2813269#appliesto
    The key is here;
    "If you are using an Exchange Server account, the 20-MB attachment
    limit for Internet email accounts is not used by Outlook 2013. Instead, Outlook uses the limit that is configured on your Exchange server. To modify the setting that is used to control the size of a message that is sent through an
    Exchange Server account, follow these steps."
    The steps that follow are for Exchange 2010 but they show setting organization limits not server limits. And note that it
    says the size of a message, not the size of an attachment. Since mail-tips for message size are not displayed when the limit is set via the transport rules I thought it
    was possible that the same inconsistency might apply to the attachment pop-up warning. I set the organization limits and voila! The pop-up now displays when an attachment that exceeds the message size limit is added to a message.
    This is exactly what I wanted. Now users won't fill up their sent items trying to send large attachments that just bounce anyway.
    It would be wonderful if Microsoft would provide information about what features of Outlook are affected when you apply message size limits at the
    various levels.
