Software
You can see all your installed Advantech DAQ devices here, including the simulated DAQ device called
“DemoDevice”. In other words, you don’t need any hardware installed on your computer to test all operations
within DAQNavi. For each device, there are four items you can select.
6
Devices
Device Setting
You can perform all hardware
configurations for the selected device.
Device Test
You can test all hardware functionality
here, without any programming.
Scenarios
For each scenario, an example
program is embedded within
Advantech Navigator so that you can
execute it directly. Corresponding
source code is provided, written in
different languages (C#, VB .NET,
C++, Delphi, Qt and Java). A wiring
diagram for each scenario is available
here.
Reference
You can find the detailed user
manuals for the selected device.
Category Scenario Description Category Scenario Description
Analog
Input
Instant AI Read single AI value once
Digital
Input
Static DI Read the selected DI port value once
Asynchronous
One Buffered AI
Read a buffer of AI values once
(Don’t need to wait the acquisition is done to run other program)
DI Interrupt
When DI bit meets a pre-defined edge change
(rising or falling), an interrupt is generated
Synchronous
One Buffered AI
Read a buffer of AI values once
(Need to wait the acquisition is done to run other program)
DI Pattern Match Interrupt
When selected DI port meets pre-defined pattern, an interrupt is
generated
Streaming AI Continuously read a buffer of AI values DI Status Change Interrupt
When the status of certain selected channel of DI port changes, an
interrupt is generated
Analog
Output
Static AO Change AO values once
Digital Output
Static DO Change DO values once
Asynchronous
One Waveform AO
Change AO value based on a pre-defined waveform once
(Don’t need to wait the generation is done to run other program)
Timer/ Counter
Delayed Pulse Generation
When a trigger from counter gate is met, a pulse is generated after a
specific period
Pulse Output with Timer
Interrupt
Continuously generate a periodic pulse train (using counter internal
clock), and an event will be sent out at the same time.
Synchronous
One Waveform AO
Change AO value based on a pre-defined waveform once
(Need to wait the generation is done to run other program)
Event Counter Continuously count the pulse number of signal from counter input
Streaming AO Continuously change AO value based on a pre-defined waveform
Frequency Measurement Measure frequency of signal from counter input
Pulse Width Measurement Measure pulse width of signal from counter input
PWM Output Generate PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) signal
