Multi system control architecture

[Rajesh_Nair]

Hello,

I am trying to develop an application to control and monitor two systems. The two system will be using a single CDAQ chasis to acquire and control the signals. The two system is identical in all aspect only the channels will be different.

I am bit confused in selecting the architecture. It will be very helpful if somebody can give me guidance/advice/suggestions/thoughts ....

Thank You!

Regards,

Rajesh

If the two systems are identical, make reentrant VIs so that they can run completely independant.  Just pass in which channels in the cDAQ to use.

Thanks crossrulz for your reply!

I am sorry that I missed some information, the two system should have two GUI's which shall have the valve status, heater status, a PID loop, an activity log, test sequencing, database logging etc. like a standalone application. At the same time two system will use one CDAQ chasis. So the functionality of each GUI will remain same, only difference will be the selection of channels for example cdaq\mod1\ai0 will be pressure sensor for system 1 and cdaq\mod2\ai0 will be pressure sensor for system 2.

I am just trying to figure out what will be the right architecture! Please let me know your thoughts!

Thank You!

I want to add one more thing, these two GUI shall be controlled/monitored simultaneously.

Thanks!
