Measures of true bipolar voltage with USB 6008/6009

The 6008 or 6009 to make true bipolar (positive and negative voltages referenced to GND) measurements?  If not, what is the solution to purchase cheaper data this feature?

Thank you.

The question of unipolar vs bipolar vs bipolar Pseudo-aleatoire also was mentioned in this thread.  The 6008 6009 use bipolar-only mode and load the setting differential input or CSR.  Please note that {unipolar / bipolar / Pseudo-bipolaire} is independent of {differential / CSR / Pseudo-differentiel}.

The 6008/6009 don't use 'Pseudo-bipolaire', which means that each differential input should be positive with respect to the ground.

Best regards

    Get incremental counter/sound to work along the coast with usb-6008 with labview tia sal22

    Hi all

    I can get this vi to work if they are distinct from the vi but I can't join them together

    Example of my error:

    If buffers are set to 0 the freq counter increment works, but no sound
    If the buffers are set to 1 the audio works fine but is not increment the Freq counter
    If the buffers are attached to more 1 clicks and pops are coming

    That's what I'm doing:
    (1) have the frequency of increment of my internal sound card to a certain level as .01hz a second until he gets to 20 000 hz

    (2) use my device usb-6008 daq, which is connected to the same machine to measure the voltage at the same time. (I am in a position very low voltages between 1-5volts)

  • Pulse counting with USB 6008

    Hello world!

    I have a project with USB 6008. I want to count impulses (for special features: count the pulses of the encoder) use USB 6008. I wirite with DAQmx to test a simple. But it do ' t run. Please see and help me to do this exercise. I just borrowed 6008 USB so I don't have any experience with USB 6008. Thank you! It's funny.

    Looking at the PFI0 manual (pin 29) is correct and I don't see anything wrong with the code and example should work. I have a M-series card, not a 6008 and it works for me. This error code is meaningless if. Are you sure it's the number?

  • Beyond the limits of voltage on USB 6008?

    I use a USB-6008 to measure analog differential in the range of 3 to 5.3 V. I chose this range, because outside this range, I'm not interested in what the tension is, knowing that his "on the rail", but to aid resolution of the ADC in this range.

    So for a signal of ~0.05 supply V, I expected to read 3V, telling me that the voltage is lower than 3V, but again it returns 0.05v?

    As it was unexpected for me, could someone please explain what can / should I expect of my USB6008 of the responsed to the signals that are the limits? Is there an effect of "rollover"? Should you return the value to the limit? Depends on how far the limit is?

    Thanks for your help!

    Entry level do not think that way. You specify the range is that you wait for the signal and the DAQmx driver will set the most appropriate range that the device supports. The actual ranges are indicated in the guide. In your case, because you specify a max of 5.3, the device would be defined the +/-10 volts range.

  • Loss of communications with USB-6008

    I have a USB-6008 be used to control a couple of valves with its digital output channels. The digital output channels are a relay that energizes the solenoid valves (valves are 115VAC) switching. The USB device is connected to a USB port on laptop.

    The software/hardware was working fine, then some time while it was connected there was a power surge. There was a 2 a fuse on the 115 VAC line that blew.

    After this communication surge was no longer able to be implemented with the box USB-6008. Is it possible for a power surge affecting the USB device, even if his power comes from the power supply of 5V USB?

    Things I checked so far.

    Restart the computer with the USB unplugged and start back up - no connection

    Check the Device Manager for the USB device to be present - not visible in the Device Manager

    Check MAX for device - does not present as gift

    Check the wiring to the son of course drop - no defeated cables

    try on different laptops - connection

    Connect other USB devices to the laptop USB - another fine feature of devices USB slot

    Check the + 5V channel on the USB device and do not read a voltage

    Any indication seems to be that, somehow, the USB device has been damaged during this surge? Is there some kind of diagnosis offline, I do without seeing the unit online?

    Hello the plough,

    It looks like the surge caused a sort of feedback of the valve of your USB device. This USB device is not designed for industrial applications and can easily be damaged in the situation you described. For a USB device with a greater ability to withstand this type of power surge, you should watch the box USB-6525. A better solution would be a CompactDAQ or CompactRIO system with a NI 9401, which is designed to withstand 1 000 Vrms, verified by a 5 s dielectric withstand test.

  • Lack of external input clocked with USB 6008

    I'm a little confused on how to extract digital data without an external clock.  I guess that there is a way to do it, or this device would not do any digital input advertising, but I don't understand exactly how that would work.  Apparently, my only option is ' we demand. "

    I take data frames occurring about every 1 ms with a frequency of 950 kHz clock.  I have this completed with a more sophisticated Board using a clock from the data source.  We now want to translate this to the USB-6008, so we can use the 6008 OEM like a daughterboard for our data source.

    Avoiding him depends on the software you use, the pc, the os, etc. Whenever you want to do a reading of a line, you do a Read DAQmx. Absolutely no correlation with a time given because windows is not even close to deterministic. You may have readings in the low khz range.

  • Data acquisition with USB-6008 using C++

    Hello

    I am trying to use USB-6008 to collect analog data without using Labview, since I can't afford the lincence. I searched in the C++ provided with product samples and found "Simple example of analog input.

    The compiler I use is codeblocks instead of visual studio (once again for monetary reasons). The code seems to works since when I run it with the USB-6008 box connected, he wrote "gains 1000 points.

    I have 3 questions relating to the use of this code:

    1. where are stored the 1000 points?

    2. How can I modify the code to specify the time acquisition and the frequency of acquisition?

    3. How can I change this code sample points simultenously with 8 analog inputs?

    Thank you for your help,

    I'll try to add any clarification if necessary.

    Albany

    Your questions are answered in help for c programmers.

    1000 points are in the variable array of points called 'data '.

    The sampling frequency is set to sync.

    The number of points read is defined with the function of reading.

    Read channels are defined with the function channel set. To read multiple channels, use syntax such as Dev 1 / ai0:3 for the first 4 channels.

  • Amplification of Type K Thermocouple for playback with USB 6008 at high temperature

    I'm looking to amplify a K type thermocouple, so that the signal can be read with a bit of precision by a USB-6008. I watched the AD595 chip, but it indicates a maximum useful temperature of 100 ° C and I'll need to read up to 700 C.

    Is there another amplifier chip that would work up to this temperature, or should I resign me to use the unamplified signal and get a very inaccurate (~ 30/division) the temperature reading?

  • Frequency of maximum output with USB-6008

    I have a digital circuit containing 3 exits, 3 inputs digital and analog 1 entry in labview with my USB-6008. When I connect to the entrance (via the DAQ assistant) analog, the output frequency is reduced to a maximum of 27 Hz, but I need 50 Hz. is possible to do?

    Ah.  You'll need a DAQ better than the 6008, to do.

    There is no train generation feature buffering or the pulse on the 6008.  The outputs are all timed by the software, you cannot build a table and tell the 6008 in the output array.  Out of the 6211 must be able to produce this signal.  Series X-series Renault will do what it takes; the USB-6341 is probably your best option.

    512 bytes.  256 samples.  This is specified in the USB-6008 user manual.  See Specifications, input analog, AI FIFO (page 24).

    You can also always determine this programmatically.  Create a task of the desired type and query the size of the buffer in a property DAQmx buffer node.

  • order bipolar motors with usb DAC-NOR-6008

    you are more than welcome... OK, I've attached a vi that could help you... I will illustrate how to connect your driver for your usb data acquisition card.

    1. on the digital I / side P O/P of data acquisition is a 5V pin, connect it to the two 5V pins (pulse and Direction) of the driver.

    2 - 2 other pins (Pul - and Dir-) connect to port0/$line0 Pul-and port0 / line1 to dir.  (you can configure the ports like u as in the vi block diagram window).

    3. allow the PIN to activate it without a connection. (it is normally activated).

    for the connection of the motor: (do not connect these pins for data acquisition)

    It has 6 pins.

    first of all, you must know the motor coils wires, you could test with any counter AVO.

  • USB 6008 weird analog voltage reading

    Hello

    I use the USB-6008 to measure a voltage of a Lithium battery, 3.66V.

    the battery come with a blocking diode (in series with the battery) of 1N5820, who have a fall of voltage drop of 0, 1V.

    battery with diodes in series (this is the way in which the battery is shipped with)

    -measure with DDM yield 3.66V without you connect to usb6008

    -measure with DDM yield connected to usb6008 (putting OUT VOLTAGE USB6008) 3.59V

    -able with USB-6008 performance 3.59V connected to usb6008

    battery with diode removed

    -measure with DDM yield 3.66V without you connect to usb6008

    -measure with DDM yield connected to usb6008 (putting OUT VOLTAGE USB6008) 3.66V

    -able with USB-6008 performance 3.66V connected to usb6008

    Thus, it seems that the problem is in the led in the series.  This is why the battery voltage has fallen to 0.07V? the series diode will hurt the USB-6008?

    Maybe people who know the circuits inside the USB-6008 can give me an answer.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi learnerd,.

    The fall that you see is falling forward in the diode.  As an entry class device, the USB-6008 case has a relatively low input impedance (144kOhm) and thus draws a little current of the device.  Looking at the datasheet of the 1N5820 (http://www.onsemi.com/pub_link/Collateral/1N5820-D.PDF), Figure 7 shows that at 25 ° C, a draw of 50mA will cause a fall front of 200mV.  While the figure does not extend the curve below 50mA, extrapolating the given curve would indicate that a drop of 70mV would cause only a few current microamperes.

    A DMM will have a much greater input impedance (GOhms instead of kohm) and won't draw enough current to influence the measure, that's why you wouldn't see the decline with only the DMM.

    The diode will not harm the USB-6008 somehow.

    Good luck with your application,

  • USB 6008 angle measurement?

    Hello friends

    I need to measure the angle of rotation of the shaft with a precision of 1 degree... is there any simple device can I connect with usb 6008 custom angle...

    Thank you

    180 degrees is very different from continuous rotation. Just wire a potentiometer to one of the analog inputs and try to calibrate it.

    You don't need the LM317.  It will not help you with what you have described so far.

  • NEITHER USB-6008 connect to thermocuples and pressure sensors, control valve

    I am endevoring to build a gasification plant biomass for bench scale test process control plans. NEITHER USB-6008/6009 will be adapted for use as a data acquisition. I'll take RTDS, thermocouples and pressure sensors. I don't want to use industrial automation controllers.  It is also possible to use the channel of analog output for sending signals to a control valve position (using sufficient current/voltage between the two drivers).

    (1) OK.  I just wanted to be sure that you were aware of the potential dangers.

    (2) an RTD is a resistance that has small changes in resistance per degree of temperature change. To measure that you have need of a current source and a sufficient resolution in order to detect small changes.  At 25 degrees C a typical RTD is 109,73 ohms and resistance ohms 0.38 per degree changes.  If you had 1 my crossing this RTD voltage through it would be 109,7 mV and the voltage change of 0.38 mV by degree.

    The resolution of the 6008 on the most sensitive range is 0.49 mV > 1 degree.  The accuracy of the 6008 is 1.5 mV typical.

    For a Type K thermocouple, voltage at 25 degrees is 1.407 mV and change by degree is 39 µV.  Millivolt solving half of the 6008 translates into about 12 degrees.

    If you need a source of excitement for RTD and a kind of amplification for thermocouples and RTD before she would make any sense to try to use USB-6008.

    (3) I have not used anything except LabVIEW with DAQ devices and drivers.  I think DAQmx can be used with MATLAB and other languages.

    (4) the 6008 is the low range made by NOR. You will need to go to a more expensive camera or add signals conditioning circuits.  Talk to your representative OR assistance in the choice of a suitable device.
