can labview used to control termometer?

Hi Onny,

The web site you showed me has a LabVIEW driver and examples available for download. You should follow the steps on this page in order to properly communicate with your device. When you unzip the folder in Step 2 you need to move the GO! folder to C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW X.y\user.lib as instructed in the Readme. X and y are referring to the version of LabVIEW that you will be working with. You will be able to find the driver on the functions palette in User Libraries>>GO!. At this point you would be able to use the driver to write your own program to take data from the device. You can now proceed to step 3 where you will download and unzip a folder that contains examples using the driver you installed. You can open up the example that has the behavior that you want and based on this you can look at the block diagram of the example to see how it is configured. If you are just looking to acquire the temperature, one of these examples should provide the functionality you are looking for.

Thank you so much Steve.

I didnt even see the examples there.

I guest im worried so much.

I will create the program for this labview and i will need more help to make it as HTML online file.

This labview can be made as real-time measurement and act as dedicated server, right ?

Because my project is that i will need to be able to access the data from anywhere.

thank you

Hey Steve.

I just worked on this little bit.

This kind of the scratch of what I want.

I want to have date displayed on this and my table should record the data every minute and save the data.

I will need to put the data to be able to be pulled anytime in the future.

Do you think that's possible ?

I cant find the days, hours and minutes sign for on labview.

Thank you for your help

Hi Onny,

You should be able to configure the driver you have to make measurements every minute, I would recommend looking at the configuration that you have or look at another example that explicitly sets the acquisition rate. You can use our Get Date/Time in Seconds VI to return a timestamp with the current time, this will occur in software. The Get Date/Time in Seconds can be found from the Functions Palette under Programming>>Timing. There may be a method of adding a timestamp into the returned data but this would have to be configured in the driver.

The File I/O VIs would allow you to write the data to a file. What are you looking to have online? We have a built in Web Publishing functionality and you can deploy your VI as a RESTful Web Service if you have the appropriate LabVIEW versions. Do you want to control the VI through the internet or just access the data? You may want to try searching for some keywords such as HTML, Web Services, or Web Publishing in the discussion forums to see if there are any examples you could work from.

[onny]

Yeah, im able to put the time stamp on the program

Now, im just looking to display the table and also on how to access the saved data on that table.

I'm still dont know how to record the data.

I'm getting there, still have to read more and more.

What do you think the best way to record and save the data ?

If i would like to have an option to pull the saved data, i have to save the data in Array and pull the data on the same format, right?

I'm still confuse right now.

thank you for your help

Hi Onny,

Have you taken a look at the Write to Text File and Read from Text File examples? They are located in the Example Finder (Help>>Find Examples) under Fundamentals>>File Input and Output. These examples will show you how to write to and read from a text file. The examples are good because they are writing and reading an array to and from a file, which is the same data type you are working with. You can work from these examples to implement the file i/o in your program.

Steve, I would like to create a web site now, instead of using the labview publishing tools, how can i use that?

Because if i'm using the labview publishing tools, the other end needs to download a labview plug ins, which will create a hustle.
Can you help me out which way easiest to create it ?

Thank you

Hi onny,

If you're asking about a new issue, I would highly recommend creating a new forum thread. That will allow us to keep issues separate so that other customers experiencing similar issues can find the appropriate information without searching through pages of conversations.

Thanks,
