• RTSI PXI trigger

  Salvation;

  I have an SMU-1065 with the following modules: PXI-6529, PXI-6280, PXI-5114, & PXI-6713. I have 3 questions:

  1. how the RTSI is launched?

  2. how this trigger can be monitored?

  3. How can I create a task is triggered RTSI?

  I'm fairly new to LabVIEW but I work with other more experienced programmers.

  Thanks for any help.

  Hello 4BoysDad,

  Before talking about your questions, I will provide some information about the cards you because I think it will help me to answer the questions completely. First, the PXI-6529, the PXI-6280, PXI-6713 uses the DAQmx driver but the PXI-5114 is a digitizer and uses the driver NOR-Scope. Knowing this, I would focus on the passage of relaxing between 3 maps DAQmx first before thinking about the PXI-5114.

  At the same time, you have an SMU-1065 chassis. With this chassis, there are 3 segments of trigger bus essentially dividing backplane. If one of these cards is in a different segment, you'll have to correct bus together segments to spend relaxation through the bottom of basket. To see how backplane it broken up, please look at the Datasheet for the SMU-1065. I would recommend that you put them on a PXI trigger bus segment.

  With that in mind, here are my answers to the questions:

  1.) how is initiated the RTSI trigger? How to create a task is triggered RTSI?

  Before doing so, you will need to select a master device to the other slave devices. If the master device is a DAQmx device and you are passing to an another DAQmx slaves, here's a example of how to implement this. The relaxation will be initiated by the master device and in this example, the trigger is a beginning arm (for more information about this, please see the DAQmx help). Looking at this example, the RTSI trigger is managed in the synchronization of tasks - Trig Skew correction. With outbreak RTSI, this VI also allows you to synchronize the clocks of reference for each of the devices. Given that this example provides detailed notes as well as step-by-step instructions how it works, I will not repeat the information here.

  If you want to synchronize the card extended with DAQmx device or multiple devices, you will need to export the signal to the other card. This example explains how to implement the scope as a master and the DAQmx device as slave. As others explain, it provides a general explanation how to achieve this as well as step by step instructions how to implement this.

  2.) how this trigger will do?

  Regarding surveillance of relaxation, I looked in the DAQmx and the pilot of scope but also consulted with my colleagues, and it is not a function, we found who will tell you that the shutter has been sent. We found one way to check this is to use the timeout for task/sessions to see if they started. If they have not the trigger has not yet been sent to the other device. You are looking for this feature for debugging purposes or will you for use in your program somehow?

  If you have other questions about this, feel free to post.

• 5154 PXI trigger on the external input

  I use a PXI-5154 and want to change my previous program to trigger the external source. I'm feeding the external source from source to V 2.5 and it seems to trigger fine. However when data acquisition the vertical range of the oscilloscope will 5 V which is too high as to my request I acquire in the millivolts range. I tried to show the vertical range of the channel I acquisition, but although I put it as the active channel I get the following error:

  Dear Tunde

  I managed to make the changes you suggested and the works of the example. I'll look in my code and see what the problem is. I'll get back to you if it has been fixed in my code or not.

• Background basket 1409 PXI trigger

  Hello

  I have an installed 1033-1409 PXI, PXI-5105 pxi chassis. I want to route a signal to trigger for PXI-1409 to the RTSI bus backplane and then use this signal to trigger RTSI bus trigger PXI 5105 as a trigger to start. PFI 5105 PXI is already occupied by the synchronization code signal Therefore, the only way to configure the startup to 5105 trigger signal. I'm using C++. However, after reading the reference of function and the examples coming with 1409, he does not seem such a function to perform this task of routing. Is it possible to 1409 and 1033 for this? If possible, could someone give me a short example? Any suggestion is appreciated.

  Sincerely,

  Bin

  Hi Binar,

  You will be able to drive a trigger on the lines of the RTSI with your PXI-1409. If you look at this knowledge base article, you will see that the projector 1409 is one of 5 Councils who have RTSI triggering capabilities. That being said, if you look in the NIIMAQFunctionReference document, you will be able to find information about the necessary trigger under NOR-IMAQ functions functions > functions high-level > functions of i/o signals. In particular, you will need to look at the imgSessionTriggerDrive2 and imgSessionTriggerRoute2 functions.

• How can I impliment a delay between the analog output and analog input (started by an external analog trigger)?

  I am acquiring several channels of analog voltage input at the same time, I need to send an output analog two seconds after the start of the entry.

  I'm running an experience with accelerometers on a query table.
  I start the trigger and the table remains still for two seconds, which allows a reference level for all sensors.
  Then the output signal of the VI removes the break in the motor controller.
  The speed measured by the encoder is sent to one of the input channels.

  In this way, our accel and speed data are synchronized.

  After it acquired the analog input data out put must be reset to zero.

  I've updated the link above works of VI, I used a property node to solve the problem.

• Problem sending trigger software through backplane PXI (chassis SMU-1082, SMU-6363 DAQ, SMU-6544-HS-DIO)

  Dear community,

  I am trying to implement a background basket (software) PXI trigger on a chassis NI SMU-1082 with LabView 2015 (32-bit) running on an SMU-8135:

  HS-DIO (SMU-6544) in slot 2,

  -Acquisition of data (SMU-6363) into the Groove 4,

  -Flex RIO (SMU-7962R + OR-6583) in the Groove 3.

  The trigger schema is explained in the attached file ' LV-PXItrig-HSDIO-DAQ - overview.jpg ".

  Scenario 1: written DAQ analog signal and sends signals trigger HS-DIO (software) through bottom of basket, after East of waveform of the complete signals to DAQ for acquisition.

  Scenario 2: logical impulse on an external port HS-DIO triggers signals HS-DIO, after HS-DIO waveform is complete DAQ triggered for the acquisition of the ADC by the backplane.

  In principle this breaks down to send a trigger of module A to B by PXI backplane. The SMU-1082 chassis has a bus trip with 8 lines (PXI_trigX, X = 0,..., 7) more a trigger in Star controlled the slot 2.

  I've linked to implement a software trigger, but I can't access the refreshing resource and execution, see the attachment. Other ways of implementation including the DAQmx Terminal / routine disconnect Terminal have not worked for me either. I am aware about the connection of trigger using the node property VISA but I can't make a trigger.

  Tips, comments or solutions are appreciated. Thank you!

  For scenario 1, you want to trigger the HSDIO acquisition to begin as soon as the analog output DAQ starts?  You can use DAQmx Export Signal to send the trigger for the start of one of the lines from the Trig PXI backplane. Then, you need to configure your HSDIO acquisition to use a trigger digital beginning on the same line of trigger. Take a look at the example of the "Dynamic hardware generation start trigger" in the Finder of the example (help > find examples)

  For scenario 2, looks like you do a dynamic unit HSDIO generation when a digital trigger arrives on one of the PFI lines. Once the build is complete, you want to send a trigger for the DAQ hardware to begin sampling. If this is the case, you again use a trigger to start material in your task of NOR-HSDIO, as you did for scenario 1, but use external trig line as the source, rather than the bottom of basket. There is no case of material when the build is finished, but you can use a marker in script mode event instead. The example of the Generation with dynamic event marker' in the example Finder gives a good starting point for this type of operation. You'll want to set the output terminal for the event to be a line of backplane trig, and then tap the DAQmx to start on the same line trig trigger.

• 1031 DC pxi star trigger

  Hello colleagues LV coders.

  I've looked everywhere and can't find the answer to the following question: How can I access a trigger in Star in a PXI 1031 DC chassis?  I know this must be through SLOT2.

  I currently have a micro controller PXI - 8102 SLOT1, an arbitrary generator (AWG) pxi-5422 the SLOT2 and a PXI-7954r FPGA with a digitizer 5761 nor in SLOT4.  I know that activitate the outbreak in Star, a "Timing and synchronization' card must be in the SLOT2.  Is it possible that I can use either the microntroller in SLOT1 or the Working Group in the SLOT2 for access to the relaxation of Star?  I think that the microcontroller will probably be able to reach, but what about the Working Group?

  Follow-up on issues is as follows: suppose that I am able to implement this Star trigger correctly, once the working group receives the signal to send its chirp 10usec by having the Star trigger go HIGH, is there a way of simultaneously to adjust the line of PFI0 HIGH in the Working Group and a time that the 10usec is completely sent to set the PFI0 on the BASS line in the generator of signals for usec then 90? This could be repeated indefinitely and the PFI0 line is used to control a switch via a cable.  In addition, this PFI0 of the GTS line will always be equal to "output mode".

  Thanks in advance a ton.  If I found the answer elsewhere, I'll make sure to update here.

  The link "what GIS speeds. do my chassis PXI Trigger lines Support' really helped me to understand how triggers are connected in the bottom of the basket of the PXI chassis.  In my case, I need my shutter button to get to the e in 1 usec and thus the PXI Trig. Bus to get there.  No need to worry about the outbreak in Star for my application.  Thanks for the research!

• Trigger the playback status of the PXI/lines of buses in a PXI system

  Hi all

  I ' am, developing an application in which you cards inserted in the PXI chassis will send a trigger on the PXI trigger line signal 0 1 bus, while another card on a different slot waiting for the trigger on the trigger line specified. These two cards are cards of third parties (OR not) who support the trigger through its drivers and are inserted into the slots which is part of the trigger bus Beach chosen. (My frame has 3 bus trigger). It seems that my second card does not relax. So I don't know if my first card actually generates a trigger on the specified line.  So I would like to know if there is a technique to control the States of triggering in labview, so that I can check if the trigger is actually that occur or not.

  Note: because the cards are third parties, I booked the line trigger PXI 0 in NI MAX settings for my chassis.

  Waiting for a quick response.

  Oscilloscope? Connect an entry is not used for the trigger signal?

• Impossible to send software trigger using 6682 and OR sync

  I can't send a trigger of global software to the PXI (PXI_Trig0) trigger using the PXI-6682 card and the software of synchronization OR (beta 3.0 and 3.1). I ran the example vi: route software Trigger.vi and chosen my 6682 and terminal of destination PXI_Trig0 resources. I get the error:-1074118606 was held at niSync Connect Software Trigger.vi, driver status: (Hex 0xBFFA4032) the terminal specified source is not valid for this operation. Looking at the terminal of the source, it is selected as the GlobalSoftwareTrigger. If this card does not support a software trigger (I can't imagine why), if not, how can I send a software inside of basket PXI trigger trigger?

  Any help would be great.

  Josh

  I found this one. Apparently the PXI-6682 card cannot do a software trigger, so I plugged internally PFI2 to PXI_Trig0, then an event of installation time (down, up, down) on PFI2. Time event fires a trigger on PFI2 that triggers a trigger on the backplane PXI PXI_Trig0. I will then put up to fire all stars fires instead of PXI_Trig0 to synchronize my two FPGAS.

• Master sync hardware

  In the system definition file, under chassis, there is a setting for Master Unit of synchro material. Docs VS portrayed thus:

  ***************************

  Setting a hardware Master chassis synchronization device

  
  

  A chassis control hardware device controls synchronization the synchronization of all of the material in a frame and must be a NOR-DAQ device with at least one analog input or output channel, FPGAS OR or a timing and synchronization device that has the ability to lead the line 0. The RTSI 0 line is a digital line that send a clock signal that synchronizes all of the hardware I/O devices in the system.

  Follow these steps to define a NOR-DAQ device like the chassis master device synchronization.

  **************************

  In General, what is needed to use the DAQ hardware to do a harware Sync? From > 1 card is used? What is the RTSI lines are used transparently to both the PCL and DIOs?

  More precisely:

  I got the following error at the time of deployment instance: error-307743:

  

  We can see that something is going wrong with loop DI DAQ is started.

  This error does not occur, and I deployed this file 10s and 10s times without problem.

  My system has 2 cards:

  -PCIe 6343

  -PCI 6723

  

  The first thing I did to remove the DI of the 6723, the system very well deployed once, then the error came back

  Finally, I watched the sync settings. They are defined as follows:

  

  Their definition to None, working deployment. Then I put them back to DAQ, as on the fine above and all worked again.

  Dig a little deeper in the present, I have noticed that if export sample clock is set to ao/sample clock error is back, despite the presence of strings in the AO list...

  Been to you tips or file error system definition corrpution regarding these settings next to the info, that found the docs VS?

  THX.

  You will have unexpected behavior if you are using hardware PCI and not connecting equipment with a cable RTSI.

  The clock of the master device is designated with blue "BOLD", as shown on your screen. This device, as shown in the aid, which must be one that has at least 1 HAVE or AO. This device must then send the material sample clock to other analog devices (analog only!) in the system. This means that if you have other devices in your system that uses of HAVE or AO (and do not have the box 'disable the material unique point timed' checked)... they will expect to see an example of clock on PXI trigger 0 or RTSI 0.

  If you use PXI... the sample clock is exported by the master on trigger PXI 0 and everything in the same backplane bus segment will see this automatically. If you use PCI... then you must either disable the hardware timing (not recommended) or acquire a RTSI-OR cable and follow this procedure that I just wrote to a colleague. (Ideally, we need to put this in the help in the future)

  1. Select the chassis page and designate (your multifunction data acquisition device) as the master of the chassis.
  
  
  2. In MAX, find your remote system, expand devices and interfaces
  
  
  3. Click with the right button on the chassis, then select identify-> external PC
  
  
  4. A right-click devices and interfaces and select Create new
  
  
  5. Choose cable RTSI-NOR and click on finish
  
  
• Right-click on the new cable RTSI-OR and add RTSI cable analog devices. These devices are necessary because they are the only devices with AI or AO is timed material (However some Councils don't support material as timing the 6704... which I do not recommend the use)

• Camera trigger with trigger material GigE

  Hello

  Here's an overview of what I want to accomplish:

  LabView - program starts and expected output frames GigE camera

  -Hardware trigger leads, to camera, GigE, image display

  -A few simple calculations is performed on each image to generate the average pixel value--> this average value is plotted for each frame

  -Repeat the three steps above

  Please see the attached VI. I put my camera settings successfully in MAX do wait an external hardware trigger. However, out of IMAQdx Grab2.vi inside the While loop is only a single image (even if MAX I put the Mode of Acquisition of multitrame - 255 images).

• Help with PXI OR 4070 DMM and OR PXI MUX 2501

  Dear alls,

  Sorry to post a simple question, but I couldn't understand it.

  My PXI1033 chassis has NI 4070 Flexdmm and NI PXI MUX 2501, block of connection OR-TB2605, 1 thread by MAX-mode configuration.

  I'm trying to measure 3 voltages (from 2V to 5V) by connecting them to ch0, ch1, ch2 MUX2501 (Terminal screw for example 67,66,65 and common screw terminal 27).

  Any device passes self-test to the MAX.

  I then use NOR-DMM/Switch Express, swap the added devices and also scan list.

  Trigger is PXI; Handshake (PXI trigger 0 and 1 PXI trigger)

  However, I could not measure all the signals.

  I also try with other examples in LabVIEW help, but have still no results.

  Am I missing something?

  And, although the trigger section is very clearly explained, I have no idea how the DMM to run his measure through switching and multiplexing. How DMM connected MUX?

  I noticed that the DMM and the switch share the same trigger bus (two of them bus trigger 1), but their local buses are different (DMM: local bus left/right = 2, 4, and buses premises MUX left/right = 3.5)

  Your advice is much appreciated.

  Thank you.

  Van.

• Module AO trigger using PFI on the cDAQ-9188

  I use a cDAQ-9188 chassis with an AO (NOR-9264) module.  Is it possible to configure a PFI (channel on the frame) as an input signal to synchronize an AO channel with the trigger?  Here's what I'm trying to do.  I need a channel on the AO module to switch voltages in sync with the trigger when the user "push a button".  So once the button is pressed, the channel of the AO will not change until the next trigger pulse.

  Thanks for your help

  Ben

  Hello Ben

  I hope you are well.  The consensus is that it is possible.  Have you tried this yet?  If so, can you tell me what you have tried and how you made a lot of progress?  I recommend the following VI example: Cont Gen tension Wfm - Ext Clk.vi.  Are you able to get all the functionality you are looking for this VI.  It was recommended that I'm showing you this.  We find this VI under help--> find examples and then material input output &--> DAQmx-->--> voltage analog generation.

  Please let me know how you are progressing and if you have need of all aspects of this example explained.  Thanks for choosing National instruments!

  Sincerely,

• delay between the trigger and data acquisition

  Hi, I use NI SMU-6368 as a tool for data acquisition. In my experience, I use an external digital trigger to start taking measures of a thermistor.

  However, before the experience, I want to know the time that elapses between the detection of the trigger signal and data acquisition start time.

  Is there a way to do this?

  Here's the kind of thing I configure to get an accurate measure of time of t = 0 trigger signal to the

  the actual first A/D conversion.   It may be too much for a measurement of the temperature, but you should get

  the right track.
