Instrumentation Laboratory Exercise 17
Set up the analog input on channel 101, and confirm that the signal
is read into pin 1 and ground is connected to pin 39. When
configuring the input channel use the following commands in the
MultiInstrument Direct I/O box (from the I/O > Advanced I/O menu or
from Instrument Manager side bar). Key in the following commands
one line at a time:
Recall that the read command must be entered by double- clicking the
< Double-Click to Add Transaction > and changing it to the following:
1 "ROUT:SCAN, (@101)" // Tells the DAQ to scan
channel 101 only
2 "SENS:VOLT:POL UNIP, (@101)" // Sets the input to unipolar
mode
3 "SENS:VOLT:STYP SING, (@101)" // Sets the channel to be
read relative to ground
4 "SENS:VOLT:RANG 1.25, (@101)" // Sets the channel to a
1.25 V maximum input
5 "MEAS:VOLT:DC? (@101)" // Requests a DC
measurement of voltage
6 READ TEXT Vd REAL64 // Reads the voltage as Vd
NOTE
Make sure you enter a space between DC? and (@101) in line 5 or it will not
work!
