FlexiForce sensors LabView program

Hello

I work on a student project and we have to measure the power of the load of a flexiforce sensor. I have a decent amount of experience with labview, wheatstone bridges and the strain gauges, but none with the amps op and force sensors. LabView is recommended just coproduce DAQAssist module but I have a feeling it won't be just as easily go.

We need to have a balancing system bridge you need to strain gauges and similar wheatstone bridge? Or can I just use the single channel DAQ help LabView recommend? I've also heard various things about the modeling of operational amplifiers in LabView, is reliable and accurate?

Here is the basic circuit society force sensor is recommended.

Even any help pointing me in the right direction is greatly appreciated.

Thank you

mecheng16,

Yes, the conditioning of signals they provide will convert change in the resistance of the probe to a voltage that can be read by the DAQ card.

  • Run the Code Labview program on VN8970 vector material

    I would like to ask if anyone has ever tried to run the Labview Code on the material vector in Standaone Mode,

    The VN8970 have a PC as material and I would use as my hardware target.

    Labview programming would go toward, creating / establishing a controller which output is POSSIBLE only.

    Necessary sensor data is on the BUS CAN even output going to the CAN-BUS network.

    The vector hardware box 8970 should run with the Labview code inside and be just like a car engine controller, just a BOX knot...

    Can anyone shade some light on this topic because it is very difficult to collect all the required bits.

    Vector support won't help with that because that intends it to sell their own software, which does not fit this need.

    Far as I can tell the VN8970 has an ATOM processor or a core-i7 on board and running something called vector CANoeRT.

    From the VN89xx Manual:

    "The family of interface VN8900 offers a stand-alone mode that allows you to measure without any other PC user.

    To this end that a request can be configured in the canoe, which is then written to the NVM of the VN8900. After a reboot, the configura-tion is loaded and the measure began independently. »

    Canoe uses a programming language called CAPL. My understanding is that the code of the CAPL is downloaded on the series VN89xx materials and run directly on the device without the need to be connected to a PC.

    In other words, I don't think there is a way to get a LabVIEW code to run on a VN8970.

    The vxlapi.dll that is used here is intended to be used on a Windows operating system. You can use it to control the VN8970 similar to the other vector material, but not in standalone mode.   I don't know what OS runs on the material of VN89xx but I doubt you'd be able to install a LabVIEW run-time engine on it.

    I think your only option to run a VN8970 in stand-alone mode is to buy a canoe license that allows you to do and learn how to write the CAPL.

  • get the limits of the step of a sequence in a labview program

    I am writing a labview program to access the different properties of teststand sequences to automatically enter the data of the sequence for the documentation.

    The step.limits.high property is very difficult to recover from the teststand programmatically sequence by simply using the sequence as input file.

    Does anyone know how to get the limits on a stage in a movie file?

  • SRS problem lock at the labview program amplifier with regard

    Madam, Sir, I have a labview program for SRS 830 lock in amplifier and problem is that the output is depends on the sensitivity... as we change sensitivity 500mv to 1v then exit hydro-huileuses changes. automatic gain function does not work. I'm so amazing that, about what the sensitivity, the output is correct. Please, help me to overcome this problem by starting the function of automatic gain. I enclose you than vi. When I run vi to autogain, then it displays an error and stop.

    'This error' mean? Time-out error or a parameter? If it is a parameter error, definitely check the manual to see if this is supported.

  • Investigation of the APT software and LabView programming

    Hello

    I'm new to LabView programming. I am currently using LabView 8.6. As you can see in the attached files, I wrote some code to synchronize the movements of axes X and Y of two controllers of Servo DC T-Cube using LabView programming. Now I'm tracing some Move_Absolute_Position data on graph XY in LabView. After that I sketched a movement of positions of engines, the graph only draw for the current position and erase previous data. Is there a way to track all the data on the chart? If you could give some examples, I would appreciate it.

    Best regards

    There are no attached files.

    To draw a story xy, the easiest would be to use the 'build xy graph express VI' and configure it to not erase the data between calls. You get this express VI if you place the xy graph in the express palette on the front panel.

  • Can I still change a LabVIEW program even if device drivers are not installed on the computer used for editing?

    Hello

    If I do not install device with LabVIEW drivers can I still change any given LabVIEW program created with this version?  Or do I need to install device drivers if I'm editing a program that uses these drivers?

    Thank you

    Dave

    What you reinstall? The dll is part of the traditional DAQ driver.

  • How to make a LabVIEW program auto adjust the resolution of the window

    How to make a LabVIEW program that I wrote auto adapt to any size window.

    You have a few options in fact.

    Right click on the VI icon on front panel (top-right). Then select Properties VI---> window size.

    You can check 2 boxes it: 1 maintain proportions of window for monitor resolutions 2. scale all objects on the Panel before the window resizes.

    I think 1 is the one you want.

    If you are not satisfied by the results, do what I usually do. Create a different front for different resolutions by changing the resolution of your development computer. Detects on the resolution of the computer code target of your executable file, and then open the Panel before which best fits. If a PC has none of the resolutions you display a message that prompts the user to change the resolution, before it run your executable file.

    I hope this helps. I know it is one headache but what else can you do.

  • interaction between 2 labview programs that are running on two separate computers

    Hello

    I have two separate computers and 2 labview programs that run on each computer. labview program is ready for the acquisition of data and the record of the acquired data in a computer. now, I want to send these data acquired by cable to another computer to be processed. first of all, I'm looking for the best protocol to send data between two computers. It is important for me to diliver data near real time about in miliseconds. and finally it is necessary to have any particular type of software?

    Hi farashi,

    you want "diliver data near real time in miliseconds."

    Even a GigaBit-LAN has latencies of 100 milliseconds...

    When you search for a Protocol, you can read some articles in the knowledge base is located at the Web site of NOR.

    And according to the volume of data, you should consider to send data using DataSocket...

  • Sensor using IR Sharp 2Y0A21 to enter data in a labview program using mydaq

    Hello

    I'm working on a LabVIEW project. A portion of it (creating a sub - VI), I want to make use of a record international sensor (SHARP 2Y0A21), in order to measure the proximity of my hand from the sensor. I also have the myDAQ to help me with the sensor inputs. I want to make a program that turns a Boolean LED on when my hand is out of range of the sensor. Please guide me as to what I have to do to make it work. A few steps on how to make my program will be highly appreciated!

    Thank you

    Ksquared.

    Hi KSquared,

    This article by DeveloperZone, measure the Distance with myDAQ and Sharp IR proximity sensor should help you get started. Although the model of sensor used in this article is different, the specifications seem to be very similar suddenly look at the data sheet. If you follow this link, you should be able to acquire the output voltage of the sensor, filter and convert the voltage up to a distance. From there, the rest of your program should be fairly simple to complete. Feel free to post any other questions you may have about the article or your application. Hope you find the article useful!

  • LabVIEW program works on a single computer, but does not work on another.

    We have a laptop running a custom data acquisition program that has been done with labview by an external company. It communicates via ethernet with a box full of material national instruments that is connected to some sensors. While it works fine on the laptop, try to install the software on other computers results in the following error message "year error occurred while trying to open the configuration file"C:\program files\ (program name) \data\ (name of our company) fieldpoint.iak. This error occurs whenever we try to open the settings page of test or run a test. I checked that directory and the file is actually there.

    New computers (we tried several) always have difficulty connecting to hardware via ethernet, and if you look at the network activity in windows, you can see a whole bunch of packages sent but only a little if any course of reception. I wonder if there is a network configuration problem? I tried with the settings as much as I can find, but nothing helped.

    The company that made the software does not meet the emails.

    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

    A thinking hand: the file you are trying to read is a FieldPoint config file. I don't know if the FieldPoint configuration file format changed with different versions of FieldPoint. You may not have the same version of FieldPoint installed?

  • Close a non-LabVIEW with the LabVIEW program?

    I have two programs running on the same computer.  One is a 3rd party software that collects data from a sensor and generates files.  The other is a LabVIEW application that analyzes the files before deleting them.  (The 3rd party software is written in LabVIEW, but closed source).

    I want to stop the 3rd party software automatically whenever my LabVIEW application stops.  If someone stops the LabVIEW application without stopping acquisition of data on the 3rd party software, hard drive fills up with files in one day about.  Not good!

    Is this possible without turning off the computer?

    "kill Task" in command prompt will help you achieve what you want? Use systemexec in LabVIEW to do this. After the back if this is not what you want.
