Hello,
So I have finally recieved my USB 6211 I/O module. I have connected it to my system. My system is made up of Microwave generator, Microwave reactor and IR-sensor. The objective is to control Temperature and also to control Reflected power (the 2 outputs of my system) while changing the input/manuplated variable, Power and frequency (which are located on Micrwowave generator as in order to produce microwaves of different intensities to trigger a desired temperature). I was trying to trouble shoot the process and program. And here my following questions:
1.) Does USB 6211 support CMOS signal (for RFena: Radio frequency enabaled). I looked up in the manual and I could not find which channel supports it. However, I recall speaking with NI application engineers and the conclusion was it does support CMOS signals. So which channel on 6211 is for CMOS signal?
2.) I believe I need to perform scaling for temperature control. So what I did was I adjusted IR-sensor for temperature range of 0 oC to 100oC and for 0 to 10V signal. So 0V is 0oC and 10V is 100oC and thus create a linear relation between Temp and Voltage. Now in the DAQ, I was performing scaling in the channel that is connected to my IR-sensor. And when I do this, there is a graph that comes up and preety much I have to give slope and y-int but this is not yet making much differencee. And this is because the reading in IR-sensor shows 24.8oC while I get a reading in the front pannel between 18 to 19 oC.
3.) During setting the DAQ icon in my program I am not able to find where the digital channels are located, I mean when I press the physical channel button it only shows me analog inputs/outputs but no digital outputs.
I would appericiate some help here.
Thank you
Kunj
