Want to simulate a PCI-6024E

I would like to use NI-DAQmx to simulate a PCI-6024E for developing code on my PC which does not contain this acquisition card (or any other DAQ card).
I just finished installing NI-DAQ 7.4, with MAX 3.1.1.3004. In MAX, I right-click "Devices and Interfaces", then select "Create New", then "NI-DAQmx Simulated Device". The dialog box that appears will only allow me to simulate devices for SCXI, SCC, TEDS, or RTSI.
Is there a way to simulate an acquisition card such as the PCI-6024E? How can I obtain this option?

I'm not sure what is different between your installation and mine, (I'm also running MAX 3.1.1.3004) but when I check on a machine with NI-DAQ 7.4, when I "right click" in MAX on NI_DAQmx devices it presents me with a menu that has as a selection NIDAQmx simulated device. When I select that it gives me another menu with a tree menu with what appears to be most of the current device types (M series DAQ, E series DAQ, etc.) It sounds like you may not have a complete installation, some how. Was yours "two cd's" worth? One is supposedly the 7.4, the other drivers.
Good Luck,

  • Run 2 PCI 6024E in parallel -- Dirty signals

    Hi everyone,
    I have two PCI-6024E Cards in my system. I want to run them parallel in continuous acquisition mode (I need to monitor 12 channels in differential mode).
    The VI works like this:
    Two tasks are configured for continuous acquisition (Device 1 and 2). In a following while-loop I read a certain number of samples from both devices, do some calculations, and write an extract (2 Vals) to a log file. Loop starts over.
    The problem:
    When doing so I have false measurements 3 to 4 times a second. Strength about 70% of my input range.
    Things I did so far:
    Checking the circuitry by using an analog data recorder. Result: clean signal
    Checking the channels in MAX (test feature). clean signals
    If anyone has any suggestions they would be greatly appreciated
    Peter
    p.s. I attached a copy of the code

    Hello Peter,
    first you should insert an error cluster to display the error (inside and outside from the while loop).
    Then you should reduce the amount of data for example from 600.000 to 6.000.
    You have 12 Channels with 600.000 values per channel and you save double values.
    The function "Save Data" needs a lot of time.
    You should try to open the file before you jump into the while loop.
    In the while loop follows the write function and outside from the while loop the close function.

  • How does the system Validyne pressure transducer -- Validyne CD280-Dual-- SCB-68-- PCI-6024E-- LABVIEW work and how can we calibrate the pressure transducer?

    Hello there,
    I am completely new to the LABVIEW software.
    I am learning an existing LABVIEW code of my pressure acquisition system (attached) which has the data path as following: Validyne pressure transducer --> Validyne CD280-Dual--> SCB-68--> PCI-6024E--> LABVIEW and I have some question:
    1. How does the complete system from transducer to the LABVIEW work? ie if we apply the pressure at the transducer, it will change the resistance of the transducer then ....?
    2. How can I find the equation which express the relationship between the pressure and the voltage at the oupt of the Validyne CD280-Dual in the LABVIEW?
    3. If I want to do the calibration for the transducer, what are steps?
    Thanks,
    Solved!

    Hello there,
    I do not understand what subVIs you are refering to but I have tried to run the LABVIEW program using the files I attached and it worked fine (pls see the attached pressure plot).
    As I mentined before, I am new to LABVIEW so maybe I do not know.

  • Is it possible to use SCXI-1531 together with PCI-6024E or PCI-6013?

    I want to perform acoustic measurements as well as measurements with Hot-wire anemometers and need therefore low-pass filter and simultaneous sampling.

    Greetings,
    The PCI-6024E can be used with the SCXI-1531, but the PCI-6013 cannot. Furthermore, you will need an SCXI chassis to house the 1531 (you may have already known this). The SCXI-1000 can hold up to four modules. Below is a link to information concerning the SCXI product line:

  • I have trouble finding the drivers to install a PCI-6024E data acquisition device.

    I can't find which drivers I should get to install a PCI-6024E data acquisition device. I had NI-DAQ 7.1 and I just upgraded to version 7.2, but it still doesn't work. From what I read, this is a plug-and-play device, so, if the drivers are in my computer, Windows XP should be able to complete the installation without any problems; we have a PCI-6110, which was re-installed correctly.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello,
    NI-DAQ is the correct driver for the PCI-6024E and PCI-6110 devices. Since you have two devices, you should try a combination of installations to see if you can narrow down the problem to a possible damaged board.
    What I mean by this is the following:
    Install the 6110. If it works, pull the device and plug the 6024E into the same PCI slot and see if it works. If it does not, then you may want to consider calling National Instruments at 866-275-6964 and requesting a Return Material Authorization to get your device repaired. If you call in, you will probably be asked to go through a few more troubleshooting steps with an Applications Engineer to try and determine exactly what it is that might need to be repaired.
    If it does work after perfoming th
    e above test, post back to his discussion so we can troubleshoot further.

  • Baumer encoder attached to PCI 6024E

    Hello all,
    I have the Baumer encoder BHK 06 05A 1024-12-6 which I want to connect over the TBX-68 connector block to the NI PCI-6024E. The encoder should run in compementary mode. Do somebody know how to wire this up, please?

    Hello
    As I understand you are after some information on wiring encoders, I have not been able to find a diagram specific to the PCI 6024E, but I have found some other resources which will help you.
    The encoder has 3 channels, A, R and ZorN, the diagram on the following link is for a C series module, but it shows the pin configuration. The pins on your encoder are noted in the specification and are labeled A, B and N

  • How much is the value of minimum delay of PCI-6024E?

    Hello:
    I use PCI-6024E board to do some work.when I use function "scan_op" of multichannels sample,I find I can't get a value in the help files.One of parameters of function "scan_op"---"scanRate" is so described:"When scanRate is not 0, scanRate must allow a minimum delay between the last channel of the scan and the first channel of the next scan." I want to ask how much is the value of minimum delay of PCI-6024E?If you know,please tell me,thanks.

    Hello;
    For E Series devices, this delay corresponds to the speed of the board. So, for the 6024E case, as the maximum Sample Rate is 200kS/s, that means that the minimun delay will be 1/200k = 5u seconds.
    Hope this helps.

  • How do i generate the TTL pulse from PCI 6024E DAQ card

    Hi, I'm trying to write a program which generates a single TTL pulse when it is run. My goal is to generate the pulse, send it to the output channel of my PCI 6024E DAQ card, and then use a BNC cable, to display the signal on the oscilloscope. I have written the code and I think it appears fine but when I try to view the signal on the scope I am unable to see the pulse. I have tried slowing down the sweep on the scope and have adjusted the voltage and time scales but have not seen any response. After examing my DAQ card, I noticed that none of the PFI/TRIG terminals on the card are wired; the output channel connects to terminals for DAC0OUT and Ground. I'm wondering if this pin needs to be wired in orde
    r to generate the pulse since PFI0/TRIG1 is the start trigger terminal. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Hi,
    You are looking for a retriggerable pulse generation. Please check the Generate Retriggerable Pulse (DAQ-STC).vi example that ships with LabVIEW.

  • Noise in thermocouple measurement using PCI-6024E DAQ card

    I am using a PCI-6024E DAQ card for thermocouple(TC) measurement. The
    TC is installed in the mold cavity of an injection molding (IM)
    machine. The leads from the TC are connected to the DAQ card using a
    CB-68LP board. I made a  temperature mesurment task in LabView 7.0
    with the two leads from TC as differential inputs and used CJC value of
    25 deg C.
    The problem is that when the IM machine is OFF, I get a reasonable temp
    reading with some slight noise but as soon as I turn ON the IM machine,
    the temp readings go wild with a lot of variations around the mean
    value. The temp values also don't go to higher values when the TC is in
    contact with the molten plastic in the IM machine.
    Do I need to ground something here or put a resistor in the I/O board?
    BTW the IM machine is grounded and the TC give correct temp values when
    connected to a hand-held temp reader.
    Any help will be highly appreciated.

    Hello  Aftab,
    Looks like you need to use bias resistors to reduce the noise. Check out the following tutorial for more information about how to use bias resistors.

    nce of nth triggering pulse. i need to know when the when the ist trigger occurs and when the nth trigger occurs . please tell me how to to . what i know is that event triggering has to be done with start and stop trigger. please tell me how it has to doneSuresh;
    What you will need to do is to set up a digital start and stop triggered Analog Input acquisition. Then you will need to have a counter set as event counter, having the specific number of pulses you need configured as the preset value, configured to count down, and generating a pulse after the terminal count has been reached. That counter output will be the stop trigger of the Analog Input operation. In summary, you will have the external pulse being both the digital trigger of the Analog Input operation and the source pin of the counter, and the counter output being the digital stop signal for the analog input.
    I'm attaching a Labview VI that does the start and stop analog input acquisition. You will need to include the counter part and set the stop s
    ignal to be the counter output.
    Hope this helps.

  • Can version 7.1 work with a PCI-6024E?

    Hi! I've been trying to run a VI which is being successfully used in my lab to acquire data. However, whenever i try to run it i get stuck when the AI Waveform Scan VI file is being searched. Following your replies to similar questions i've made sure that the traditional NIDAQ is properly installed. is it possible that my data acquisition card (PCI-6024E) cannot support ver. 7.1? what do i do next?
    Thanks,
    Tamar

    from what i understand from your post, your problem has nothing to do with the card.
    your vi cannot run because a subvi is missing: AI Waveform Scan. it is probably in a different library than on the original computer (i would guess the original computer has a different version of LV installed). maybe it is one of the examples in a previous LV version?
    Either way, the easiest solution for you is to go to the original computer, save your vi with all dependencies (as an llb for example), and try again on the new computer.
    ... And here's where I keep assorted lengths of wires...

  • R6850 kit to connect 5B backplane to PCI-6024E DAQ card is it possible?

    I have an old 5B01 backplane that I have connected to an SC-2050. Can I connect the SC-2050 to my PCI-6024E DAQ car using the R6850 kit?

    Lcacho,
    I've reviewed the manuals and specifications for all those devices, and the connection should work.  Please note, however, that given the age of the 5B01 backplane, I cannot confirm this completely.  However, from the information I have, you should be able to connect all these devices.

    For optimum accuracy, sample at 5-10 times the highest frequency component of the signal if possible (minimum of 2x per Nyquist), that would be 166.6Ks/sec rate max which is still within range of the card.
