NiCan Check Connection

[Slytherin]

Hello there,

I am using NI USB 8473. How do I create a log file to store the transmitted and received data? What function should I call in Borland C Frame API to create the data log file?

Thank you in advance.

Hello Slytherin,

Have you seen the NI-CAN Hardware and Software Manual?  Chapter Eleven in that manual covers all of the C functions for Frame API.  Logging the data to a file would not be a specific Frame API call.  Once you've read the data, you can then save it to the type of file you want using a standard C function. 

Thanks!
