sensor

Pleasant day, i am trying to interface an untra-beam sensor with LabVIEW using it voltage configuration. I am having difficulties and would surely appreciate your assistance on how to create the right instruments to develop in using LabVIEW.

Hi Omario,

What kind of difficulties?

how to create the right instruments to develop in using LabVIEW.

Which DAQ hardware do you have available or want to use? For this sensor even the cheapest USB6008 from NI would be sufficient. Set up a DAQmx task and read in the voltage output of that sensor. MAX will show you which pins to connect...

<sarcasm>

I really like sensor manufacturers who reject to use proper SI units...

Gerd, relax...   the temperature is already in °C

They will never be conviced, they have to decline.

I am using the USB6008. I am having difficulties setting up the instruments i need.

My mistake, i accidentally accepted ur reply as the solution. we're not there yet.

Hi Omaria,

use MAX to create a task, it provides a step-by-step assistent...

Edit: You can take back the "solution" flag!

Thanks for marking my first post as a solution 🙂

This motivates to answer 😉

Setup the USB 6008 for differential measurement and connect pin1 to AI1 and pin2 to AI4

How do i take back the solution flag?
