Sampling rate 9172 OR cDAQ

I am using a cDAQ 9172 with modules NI 9219, NI 9264 and three NI 9211.  I'm looking to acquire signals out of the acquisition of data within a loop under continuous sampling.  My program works fine if I set the number of samples to read 1-2 Hz, but I need to go faster than that.  If I change the sampling rate, the loop is executed at this speed but sensors still read only in samples at 2 Hz and then duplicating over and over again.  I was wondering if it was possible to read on 1 sample at the time of the acquisition of data at a faster rate.  I know that the frequency of sampling on the sensors and data acquisition are much higher than that.  1 sample at the time of the Board of Directors has the limitatioins of being only able to run at 2 Hz?  Please let me know

Thank you

Hi Craig,.

I don't know exactly what you describe. Are you feeding the DAQmx Read output in an express VI? Or are you using the express VI DAQ Assistant for the analog input task?

If you use the DAQ Assistant, you can set the ADC synchronization mode without changing your code:

If not, use the 'Active channels (if subset)' property to control the subset of channels on which your VI defines AI. ADCTimingMode.

For example, the following code snippet creates 8 virtual channels named myVoltage0 by myVoltage7 and sets HAVE them. ADCTimingMode on myVoltage4 of virtual channels through myVoltage7. These are in the cDAQ1Mod2/ai0 physical channels via cDAQ1Mod2/ai3:

If you leave off of the entry "name" on the string to create VI, then the virtual channel names are the same as the names of physical channel, so it's the equivalent:

And by the way, a right-click on the property and selecting "create > Constant ' context menu saves you from having to hardcode a number like 14712.

  • High sampling rate for 18 strings in a single task - DAQmx

    Hello

    My current experiences require the acquisition of 18 channels (6 HAVE custom voltage with excitement, voltage AI 12) data at a sampling frequency of 50 kHz. My question is if it is faesible using a single cDAQ-9172 chassis. Used modules are 2 x NI 9237 and 4 x NI 9215.

    The previous researcher on this project used 2 different Renault to do this, but I was hoping that I could reduce it to a single DAQ to simplify the synchronization of all channels.

    I wrote a *.vi (attached) to do this and write to a TDMS file using a structure of producer-consumer; However, when I run the * .vi, I can run for minutes, but the number of samples recorded for the PDM is rarely more than 100 k. Subsequently a buffer size error (attempted to read from the samples that have been overwritten) with less than 200 k samples ever record. I checked the max sampling rate (using a property timing node) with the configured task as in the * .vi and it shows a maximum of 235kHz.

    I can't say if I make just the structure of the producer consumer incorrectly or if I ask too much of the cDAQ-9172 unique?

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    See you soon

    Bart

    Hi bart.s,

    TiTou speaks sampling aggregate not simultaneous, so sampling rate 50kS/s is the same for all channels.

    I see the problem in the loop of the producer. If your sampling frequency is 50kS/s/ch and you read that a single sample/ch you will lose data because the producer loop cannot run so fast. You should read more than one sample. I recommend you also to move your tracing to the consumption loop code and work with larger amounts of data.

    The second problem may be with the error handling in your loop of consumer. Merge the mistakes of loop of consumer and producer and also add a few general for two loops off if the error occurs (for example, using local variable).

  • Specified sample rate clock works do not

    I hope that I was right to post on this forum. I have a problem that I had not previously in the acquisition of data on a chassis 9172 cDAQ using a 9234 for 2 analog inputs and a 9219 for four thermocouple inputs. The 9219 is obviously not ideal as it has a rate relatively low sample (and I have a 9213 on the way), so I'll have to use to HAVE. ADCTimingMode to isolate channels on this module for "high speed" mode if I can get an adequate sampling for my load. The question that arises is that no matter what I do to specify a sample rate, the actual sampling rate ends up being 1651,61 Hz, higher than the features of the 9219, if I get an error. I tried to use the DAQmx property node to set the calendar and the clock sampling VI but neither work. The only source that I can choose is on board, but when I check the source used is cDAQ1Mod1/AI/SampleClock, even if I get an error when I try to provide as a source of sample VI clock.

    As it is, my VI runs despite this error and seems to produce accurate data, but the original problem is with long testing I will have unnecessarily large data sets unless I start to decimate my other data, and the secondary problem, it's that I can't get the program to run when I try to incorporate my task of counter. In this case, the error ends the execution and he acquires no data.

    I have attached my VI under the task of counter (I'm on 8.5 and have the coming upgrade as well), but also an image of a simplified version of the VI only try to specify the settings of a channel of AI. I get the same result with it. I'm a bit of a loss here because I've never had this problem before, and it seems that there is something beyond rudimentary that I'm missing, so I would really appreciate any help anyone could provide. Thanks in advance.


  • channel and sampling rate is not updated until the next cycle

    Hi all

    I'm new to LabVIEW and I wrote the code for the measurement of temperature using the cDAQ-9178 or NI 9214. Could someone please look at my code and help me understand why... my names channel to sample and rate update, until the next time I run my program.

    For example: if I enter the name of the channel "ONE" and "10" sampling frequency... and draw my program will be executed using previous information entered by the user. If I press the race a second time, then it will use the '10' sample rate and channel "ONE". Everyone can't see what I did wrong? I know that my code is absent, but she does everything that I need, except for the update.

    I really want to use a structure of the event, but failed miserably in my attempts. Thank you

    Stream.  Updates the values in your Subvi are run in parallel to the Structures of your event.  The simple solution is to simply put your update of the values inside the event.  In this way the controls are not read until you actually press the next button.

  • Specific sampling rate?

    So maybe this is a stupid question, but I need to know because I train for a specific sound. Is there a way [to logic] to shoot/change of a certain frequency sampling rates. I can imitate the sound I'm looking for with a low pass filter, reverb and a distortion. But I don't want to 'emulate', this sound, I want to create. Then I can put my own effects and play with it like I want to. If I have to use a bunch of effects to make it sound like I want that also the addition of said effects remove the sound and sound horrible. as to where pulling the sampling frequency of the high frequency and no downs will make me THE noise that I need and always allow to add nice effects to make MY sound instead of someone else. I hope you know what I mean. Let me to you specific real once more. I want to pull or carry a certain frequency sampling rates for a sound under water. I don't want to use filters to make the sound. So can you please help me. I invited everyone locally on how to do it and nothing works. Also if this is not possible in the logic of tell me if there are third party plug ins or maybe even a different DAW that could do like komplete Kontrol or audacity.

    I'm new to myRIO and use it to measure sine wave (0V to 5V) of up to 10 Hz 20 KHz. I also quickly transformed of Fourier (FFT) of the signal measured in real time.

Does that mean this program gets a two analog inputs data exactly every 4 microsecond? If this is not the case, how can I make sure that the data is acquired through a fixed sampling rate?

    I realized that we can add to the FFT in FPGA function, but I wanted to manipulte the acquired data of analog inputs before it is sent to the FFT, which I don't know how to do now. Can someone explain me how do the arithmetic data (muliplication, division and so) on the acquired data and analog inputs to reducde the 12-bit resolution 10-bit to program FPGAS.

    Later, I created a myRIO program to read analog data 2 FPGA program which continues to turn in timed loop. In the program myRIO, the timed loop is configured to 1 MHz clock source type by a delay of 25 microseconds.

    This configuration means that the loop runs exactly every 25 microsecond?

    When I set up the less than 10 micro second time, myRIO has stopped working. Why is it so?

    A lot of good questions here, I will try to answer as much as I can so as to offer a bit of advice.

    First of all, if you are looking to acquire data at a very specific rate on the FPGA, you'll want to use the Timer VI.  You are also going to use a FIFO of DMA to transfer data of FPGA in real time. A node read-write using as you do now means you'll run out of samples, or read the sample even several times.  The link below is a very good tutorial on how to do what I described above.

    Is it because myRIO cannot run as fast as FPGA?

    In general, you should not run a timed loop much faster than 1 kHz.  Using timed inside loop knots, you can monitor the real rate of loop during execution to see if f you meet your needs of the moment.

    The portion of your myRIO RT is slower than an FPGA in the sense where it cannot manage the rates of lines 40 MHz (he makes up for it by being able to work with much better pictures) and it is important to remember that it is just a computer.  The advantage of a real-time operating system, is that you have more control on the Scheduler, not that he is faster (less jitter, not faster code). There is more good reading below.

    When I tried to do FFT using the power spectrum of myRIO side, he asked for waveform data. What I acquire is data analog. How can I convert in waveform data?

    I would say that it is generally advisable to treat your FFT on the side FPGA as long as you have the resources available, but for many applications probably little matter ultimately.

  • Sample rate Max USB-4065

    Currently, I am trying to log readings of DC voltage with an AA battery in an ASCII using LabVIEW 2009 of SingalExpress file and the USB-4065 digital multimeter (DMM). I have two stages:

    (1) acquisition of Signal > voltage DC using DMM

    -resolution 4.5 with 3.333333E the value-5 sampling period

    2) save in ASCII

    -The value to add to the file, delete the file after each race

    Faster reading, I can get is a data point written in the ASCII file every eighth of a second.

    Furthermore, I am new and software OR LabVIEW, the LabVIEW SignalExpress software I have is only for evaluation as it was included in the CD of the driver for the USB 4065 DMM.

    1. Max (30 000 samples per second) sampling rate is only achievable by a LabVIEW VI?

    2. Don't I have the wrong settings for DMM step?

    3. Is it because I haven't activated SignalExpress and am only using the evaluation version?

    Thanks in advance for any help!

    Hello Lukos,

    You are assuming that you need access to lower level functions in order to obtain the higher sampling rates. In order to get these speeds, we need to disable some settings that are not accessible via Signal Express. You can create a VI and then use a step VI call in Signal Express to stay in the same environment.

  • NI 9237 sampling rate

    Hi all

    I use a module 9237 for certain measures of the load. My experiences last over time and so I'm generating a lot of data due to the minimum sampling frequency.  I can't define an external time base so I can lower my sampling rate to something easier to manage?  Even just a sample rate of 500 s/s would make a huge difference.

    Thank you

    Hi cannisbellum,

    9237 specifications frequency range of minimum data (fs) using the internal master time base is 1,613 kech. / s and external use master timebase is 391 s/s. The simplest would be to sample at 2kS/s and decimate your data by 4. This can be done by using 'Decimate 1 table D' or ".vi Decimate (continuous).

  • PCI 5154 sampling rate

    Hello

    What is the sample rate max 5154 PCI for two channel inputs? The manual States the 2GS/s is for one channel only. So, am I not able to get a bandwidth of 1 GHz for the simultaneous measurement of two channels? Thank you!

    Hi gbhaha,

    First of all, TIS mode up to 20 GECH. / s using an ADC, while your real time sampling uses two converters a/n at the same time to a single channel.  Take a look at these diagrams that I linked in my first post for more details on this architects.

    About the difference in the bandwidth between the 5153 and 5154 - the 5153 has 500 MHz of bandwidth in its circuits, even when acquiring at faster sampling rates.  The 5154 1 GHz of bandwidth, this is why it is more expensive.

  • DMM (NI 4070), how to correctly set AC Freq (bandwidth) by the sampling rate

    using a NI4070 multimeter and I see the max connection is 300 kHz by respect it.  But I don't understand how to set the min and max, acFrequency according to the sampling frequency or speed reading.

    6 1/2 digits resolution, the speed can vary from 0.25 s/s to 100 s/s and this range corresponds to a lower end on the connection (minimum acFreq) from 1 Hz to 400 Hz.

    (Q1a) - is the playback speed, controlled by the minimum setting of IviDmm_ConfigureACBandwidth?   or vice versa?

    Otherwise, I do not see how to control the rate of reading or the sampling frequency.   IviDmm_ConfigureMeasurement only allows you to control the range and resolution.

    (Q1b) - is there a way to directly control the sample rate (digitizer) or playback speed (dmm)?

    (T2) - the upper limit of the bandwidth of AC always seems to be at 300 kHz... is there still a reason to reduce this maximum value?

    (T3) - Finally, unlike the traditional niDmm function, the resolution via the IVI configuration should be passed as absolute value; does directly when number of digits and the beach?   For example if I want to 6 1/2 digit to 300V range, I guess that by the specifications that the resolution should be set at 0.001 V... followign, if I want 5 1/2 digits to 1V range, the resolution should be set to 0.00001 V?

    Hi Rjohnson,

    I'll try to answer your questions as best as I can:

    Q1A.  The ConfigurACBandwidth function is used by the driver OR DMM to calculate the good aperautre for the measure.  So yes, by adjusting your minimum frequency, you will affect your reading speed.

    Q1B.  Your reading rate will depend largely on your measuring cycle.  To get a fast measuring cycle, there are a few things that you can adjust.  You can programmatically control your time aperature, as well as your time to settle.

    Q2. I can't find a reason to change. This parameter is only used for error-checking and verifies that the value of
    This setting is less than the maximum frequency of the device.

    Q2B.  I think what you say is right, but I'll need to check on that - I'll let know you as soon as.

  • sample rate real vs min sampling rate

    I'm sure it's an obvious answer, but here goes.

    I have a USB-5132 ' scope and using niScope horizontal configuration Timing.vi I put, among other things, the minimum sampling rate. In my case, I chose 20 MHz, which of course gives a sampling of 50 ns period.

    I use niScope reading (poly) .vi with the WDT variant to read waveform data.  I noticed something very strange - waveform limit testing throw error 1802 "signals have a dt of different values '-if I put a waveform components unclusterizer Get on the wire of waveform and looked at the value of dt of the wave." He told me that my dt is 40 ns, which of course is of 25 MHz. I also plead for only 2000 samples.

    So what causes this shift? Why the digitizer does not accept everything just my desired sampling frequency?

    Austin Walton wrote:

    Andy,

    The setting of minimum sampling frequency is the frequency at which digitized
    the samples are stored, expressed in samples per second. This setting is rounded
    up to and including the next legal collection that supports your device.  Ownership of the actual sampling rate calculates the actual sample used for the acquisition rate.

    Unless you specify another source of the clock, the digitizer uses an internal oscillator as clock source.  For the 5132, this oscillator is clocked at 50 Mhz.  When using the oscillator internal as the sample, the digitizer clock source can use versions split to the bottom of this clock, for certain sampling frequencies are not possible.

  • 6255 sampling rate causes the dc offset

    I see a dc offset in the measures of analog input I select different sampling frequencies.

    I have USB-6255 (mass termination) multifunction data acquisition and I use measurement and Automation Explorer to put in place my entries.

    My raw analog input is-0, 6250 volts dc, I have set up a task that uses 4 differential channels with no custom scale.

    I have defined the scope of the input signal to +/-0 .8v for you sure I get good resolution.

    Acquisition mode is continuous, samples of read is 1 k and I play with the order of 10kS/s rates 50kS/s.

    While this task runs in the MAX, I can put my cursor in the rate field and use the top and down arrow keys to change the sampling frequency. As I do, I can see the light changes reported as much as 150 MV rate from one to the other.

    It is a significant change when the total time of entry is lower to +/-1v.

    The direction of movement is independent of the increase or decrease of the sampling frequency.

    For example,.

    23kS/s, the declared value is - 0.540v,

    24kS/s, she moves to-0.620v.

    25kS/s, she moves to-0.690v.

    26kS/s, she moves back to-0665v.

    27kS/s, she moves back to-0.625v.

    and 28kS/s, she moves to - 0.535v.

    At first, I thought that the sampling change made a change of the input impedance and change the load on my source, however, all the time, my dc signal source remained at the - 0.625v (as measured with a multimeter fluke at the connection point to data acquisition).

    Why this is happening and what can I do about it? I want to give my users the ability to choose their desired sampling frequency.

    My guess is that I need to add an amplifier to fixed gain with a gain of 5 to 10 to make the input signal to use the maximum of the analog input level (+ / 10v).

    I use MAX version 5.0.0f1

    Thanks for any help,

    Tobin

    Hi Tobin,

    What do you use to generate the signal-. 625 volt? If you are using a switching power supply, you can experience aliasing where the power supply is turned on and stop.

    In addition, are see you the same tensions at the same sampling rate? See you always - .540v to 23kS/s or vary over time?

    Finally, you have a second 6255 you can try to replicate this on? It could be that the unit is defective.

  • fast sampling rate question...

    Hello

    I use USB-6009 and max sampling rate is about 48 K samples/s according to

    the specification...

    Question 1.

    48 K samples/s means... only when you receive 1 analog input?

    If I have 2 analog inputs then forge would be just half of the 48K?

    Question 2.

    using the daq assistant.

    I would like to get about 50 samples between 10ms

    If I do the math I get 5 K samples/s, which is enough for me

    However, I played with samples to read and throughout the day, the sampling rate,

    do not get this rate... (I'm outputing in file with LVM)

    I searched on the sampling frequency, and people here said

    samples read and sample rate do not havea correlation...

    but I see clearly that they are relevant. When I change a setting

    I get a different number of acquisition... I do N smaples.

    Please help:)

    Q1. Yes, except that the switching of channels takes awhile so the net price per channel is slightly less than half the rate of single channel.  The USB-6009 specification document does not indicate what is the switching time.  You should be able to get 5 kHz on both channels.  20 kHz might be close to the upper limit, but that's just a guess.

    Q2. The DAQ Assistant is often not the best choice for maximum performance.  I do not have the DAQ Assistant, so I can't be more specific. If you get the data as an array of DBL, rather than dynamic data type, it can be recorded directly, without conversion.  The other thing that can make a big difference is a loop two architecture of producer/consumer.  This allows the acquisition of data and save it to the file to run it at different speeds so that each can be optimized separately.  If you are trying to acquire 50 ms of data at a time and then, he writes to the file, you write to the file twenty times per second.  The first time, the operating system must reallocate some file space or do something else what delays write the file, your timing loop is disrupted.
