Resistance Measurement & Multiplexing

[Rob22Rob]

Hello NI PXI Experts 🙂

I have a need to measure several pins and their resistances on a device in fast succession. 

Currently I have in my possession the NI PXI-1033 Chasis and NI PXI-2527, 4071, 5422, 6541 and 4130 modules. 

I went over Getting Started with PXI Express Multifunction I/O Hardware and LabVIEW - NEW but I do not see there a guide on how to configure these modules to work with one another.

I basically need to connect the MUX into a ribbon cable and a connector to multiple pins and have the DMM module measure the resistance between the 1st PIN and all the rest and output the results into a file. 

Can this be done with the HW above? 

Can this also be done with just the DAQmx or should this be done in Labview? 

Thank you for your help in advance!

Rob.

You're literally asking how to do your project.

Quick answer, it seems possible with the hardware you've but needs more information on your device under test to have better confidence.

You need to develop a significant amount of code to automate all the instruments (using their respective drivers, not just DAQmx) to do the job. If you're new to LabVIEW and instrument automation, you've long way to go to achieve what you described.

Hey Santo_13, 

Thanks for replying, i'll clarify:

I don't intend to receive a "how-to-guide" to do my project specifically, i'm aware of the general architecture and the code that needs to be written. 

I'm not completely new to LabView but I wouldn't call myself an experienced user either. 

Appreciate the time you took to answer, i'm looking for more of a 'push' in the right direction to understand how I can access each module and combine them in this context. If I have a long way to go, so be it.

Thanks!
