• 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.

• NEITHER USB 6008 tension problem reading

  Hello

  I am trying to program a USB-6008 on a mac. When I connect to the input to analog 5V output I get a reading of 3.67volts, while on an osscilascope, I read a 5volts voltage. Is this normal? Need to load resistors? Also, I get the same effect with the release of tensions for the analog output.

  Hi Zepp2,

  Thanks for your post. The pins are you connect together on your device? Depending on the type of connection you have the wiring may not be quite right.

  I found a few documents online which hopefully should help you:

• NEITHER USB 6008 voltage offset using CSR and measurement of diff.

  Hi all

  I am currently trying the NI USB 6008 housing and I'm getting problems when reading voltage analog using CSR or differential.

  So basically, what I want to measure is a PWM signal (0 to 12V), which is divided by a divisor of tension (by two). But instead of measured 0V and 6V

  I am in a position a constant 0.8V and approximately 3V.

  On the side of digital data acquisition, I give you on impulses for the SSR... and it works fine.

  I connect it that way: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/95CC0CB11D7DF3D18625712E000C4ABD?OpenDocument

  Would apreciate any help

  Best regards

  EDIT: Attached graphics acquired are

  What is the impedance of your voltage divider?  The input of the USB-6008 impedance is not very high. If the impedance of the partition is large, it could cause the effect you see.

• NEITHER USB 6008

  Dear all!

  I'm looking for help on the NI USB-6008 case. I'm putting in place 4 K thermocouples using this USB-6008 4-channels. I made an express VI in the Labview 8.5 and I have installed all these 4 channels in this VI. The VI is attached for your review!  Come to the problem! I get strange readings of these 4 channels even if I have no thermocouple connected to the terminals with respect to this USB-6008. Please help me and explain what is happening? Why am I getting these strange temperature readings while there is no connected thermocouple?

  Greetings to all!

• NEITHER USB 6008 OEM DEATH

  Hello

  I have a problem with some NI USB 6008 OEM.

  They do not work! I have attached to my PC and the light starts flashing, Windows detects new hardware and everything's fine (the same way it usually works with the regular OEM-NIUSB6008 Board, not).

  Suddunly led turns OFF, and the jury never come back to life again. I run the MeasurementStudio, and I see the boards with a red cross or without serial number (when they are shown as if they were present in the system).

  I bought 10 boards and I don't want to try with anyone, because I don't know what is happening and I don't want to kill them all :-(

  We have developed some equipment with regular tips and there is no problem... What is the mystery with the OEM ones?

  Help, please.

  Thank you!!

  Hi Luciano,

  Thanks for your response and documentation on the flashing led behavior. It helped me a lot to know that if the led is flashing, it could be because it is not properly initialized.

  In fact, I had the 8.1 DAQmx version installed on my PC that worked perfectly well with regular advice to the NI USB-6008 (boxed version).

  When I plugged the OEM boards, the system seemed to load the drivers and then a message pops up saying "your device is ready to use", but as you know when I opened MAX he didn't have a serial number, or sometimes, he appeared with a red cross.

  So, I downloaded a newer driver: DAQmx 8.8. ... I installed it on my PC (first remove DAQmx8.1) and it worked

  So, the problem is solved! The problem was, I think, because of the bad initialization of the device. The problem is solved by installing a DAQmx 8.8 version. It works very well with regular and USB-6008 OEM boards.

• NEITHER USB 6008 AI acquisition and generation of pulse

  Dear users of LabVIEW,

  Greetings for everyone. I am a beginner of LabVIEW and I have a problem that I solved partially. I would really appreciate your help and suggestions that I searched for days without a bit of luck. The problem is as follows:

  I am the acquisition of tension HAVE (continue) 4 to 8 accelerometers. In the meantime, I send you a digital output signal each time when you click on the sampling frequency (i.e. 1000, 2000, 3000,...) If the sampling rate is 1000). In other words, try to send a signal of output digital (at a frequency n Hz) at intervals of 1 second (depending on the material). To make the digital output signal begins to blink a LED every one second. In addition, I need to write signals (voltage) AI and the LED blink timestamps PC (software) separately. All stages of the above are followed in my .vi program, but the real hardware/software level operations kill my timestamps. In other words each LED flash timestamps are not accurate, when I use LabVIEW measurement file express VI (the difference is not at least to the third decimal). In addition, the timestamp is kinda OK when I disable the file LVM write VI. Onemore thing I've noticed is that physically the LED blinks every second two times, I feel it's because of the shift register and loop delay of a second. Is there a way to control the speed of blinking (i.e. Boolean State must change to every 500ms without delaying the inside while loop).

  Results and comments:

  LabVIEW 2011 .vi, timestamp of files with or without generator of LVM (express VI) files are all attached. Please note that there is a considerable amount of drift in the consecutive timestamps when the file LVM generator is used, on the other hand there are derivative of 0.001 ms when the file LVM generator does not. The reason for horodateurs PC have is about aligning the various measures or observations or events to global time scale.

  Please give me any suggestions or help me do at least accurate to milliseconds in VI of witten. Finally, is there any USB DAQ module relatively inexpensive which allows to send an impulse to directly from channel impulse of output digital channels when the "n" sampling frequency Hz is obtained by level of material which could all be accurate, so that the software timer is completely reduced to a minimum. Although there are very material sophistiated of NOR, but our goal of this project is to build and test the system profitable.

  Thank you and I really appreciate your time and effort inavluable. Have a great weekend!

  Just change the samples to the constant playback at the entrance of the DAQmx Read.vi from 1000 to 500.

• NEITHER USB 6008 help to order 3 relays.

  Hello! I have a DAQ 6008, and I need to control the three relays for the filming of lights, so I scored a VI to activate the relay through three buttons. My problem is that I don't really know what kind of relay that I need. I need something like 5VDC to 230VAC. What do you recommend?

  You will need a driver-relay or transistor to provide current to fly this relay.

  On a datasheet for the relay, tried google?  The part number printed on the side of the relay.

  The ULN2003A is a good relay driver.  A 2N4400 transistor will do the job too.  Both are very easy to connect.

• 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.

• USB 6008 - how to display the two position linear pot (mm) and output (volts) in LabVIEW?

  I have a USB-6008. I have a linear potentiometer attached to the USB DAQ. Now I can view the output voltage of pot in LabVIEW through the AI0 on USB DAQ channel. However, I would also like to be able to show the position of the stem of the linear potentiometer (mm) that generates this tension. can anyone tell how to proceed?

  Since there is no lag, just use wired the primitive multiply with a constant of 20 to one of its entries, thread the other entry to your reading the voltage. Wiring of multiply it to a digital display to show location output.

• Input/output USB 6008 test failure

  OK I am posting this for the third time, but whenever I go back to the home page of the forum, I'm not able to find my post. If by chance I created duplicates than apologies.

  IAM in train to test the USB-6008 case I just got and decided to hang the analog of the analog inputs and see using labview VI.the wiring was done as:

  http://i284.Photobucket.com/albums/ll5/bigdawg6/USB%206008%20wiring_zpss2b7hql9.jpg

  the problem is that the labview VI did nothing, so I go to NI Max and try to see in test panels. But I get 1.4V constantly my same analog input value when I'm changing my analog value:

  http://i284.Photobucket.com/albums/ll5/bigdawg6/AIO%20screenshot_zps9beiimbj.PNG

  the analog output works very well since I plugged it to my multimeter and I can see the tension that I see on this Panel of test:

  http://i284.Photobucket.com/albums/ll5/bigdawg6/AO0%20screenshot_zpsqpei37bw.PNG

  I created an entry/exit of the tasks; screenshots of them are:

  http://i284.Photobucket.com/albums/ll5/bigdawg6/task_ai_zpsix5se9yg.PNG

  I am quite frustrated with all this since I'm unable to access my actaul draft. I know that 1.4 V value is from the device itself; as in the manual it says 'internal resistance divider can cause the Terminal to float at about 1.4 V when the analog input terminal is configured as a CSR', but the funny thing is that I use it in differential mode so I don't know what to do and any help is appreciated.

  BTW, I did a google search and there are other tutorials onlune who seem to do exactly what I do and they seem to work very well; so I don't know what else to do.

  Please don't host images on some odd third-party site. Attach them to your message.

  I don't understand what you've done. The 6009 can produce only a signal of CSR in order to set up the differential input makes no sense. If you want to measure something different, try a simple battery.

• USB 6008 digital output signal

  I am VERY new to LabView and have been racking my brain trying to get digital output of my USB-6008.  All I want is to be able to get a signal of + 5 V of my digital output when I click on a button.  This signal opens a valve on a system I see so when it is pressed, it must stay open until I press the new button.  It seems simple enough to me, but I'm not too familiar with LabView.  Help, please!

  Stripling07

  You must first take the LabVIEW tutorials and then look at the links to get started with DAQmx .

  The simplest program would be with the DAQ Assistant. Drop it on your schema, and then select digital output > digital line. Select the line when the wizard has completed, click OK. Wire a Boolean value in a table to build and the output of which is connected to the data entry. That's all. You can test the output of MAX (Measurement & Automation Explorer) with the test Panel. Do NOT test with your connected tap. Your valve may require more current that can provide the 6008.

  

• Want a ramp of output voltage over time and measure input 2 analog USB-6008

  Hello

  I want to produce an analog voltage output signal that increases over time with a certain slope, which I'll send in a potentiostat and at the same time I want to read voltage and current (both are represented by a voltage signal) that I want to open a session and ultimately draw from each other. To do this, I have a DAQ USB-6008 system at my disposal.

  Creation of the analogue output with a linear ramp signal I was possible using a while loop and a delay time (see attachment). Important here is that I can put the slope of the linear ramp (for example, 10mV/s) and size level to make a smooth inclement. However when I want to measure an analog input signal he's going poorly.

  To reduce noise from the influences I want for example to measure 10 values for example within 0.1 second and he averaged (this gives reading should be equal or faster then the wrong caused by the slope and the linear ramp step size.) Example: a slope of 10 mV/s is set with a 10 step size. Each 0.1 s analog output signal amounts to 1 mV. Then I want to read the analog input in this 0.1 s 10 values)

  Because I use a timer to create the linear ramp and the analog input is in the same loop, the delay time also affects the analog input and I get an error every time. Separately, in different VI-programs (analog input and output) they work fine but not combined. I searched this forum to find a way to create the ramp in a different way, but because I'm not an experienced labview user I can't find another way.

  To book it now a bit more complicated I said I want to measure 2 input analog (one for the voltage of the potentiostat) signals and one for the current (also represented by a voltage signal) and they should be measured more quickly then the bad of the analog signal. I have not yet started with because I couldn't read on channel work.

  I hope someone can help me with this problem
