Overview
A way to control the BIAS resistor settings programatically from LabVIEW using the Windows Registry VIs

Description:
This simple VI with using Windows Registry VI could show you how to change the settings of a bias resistor

Steps to implement or execute code
To implement this example:
  1. Decide whether to enable or disable bias
  2. Run the VI
  3. (Optional) Turn on the Highlight Execution to see the flow of the VI


To execute this example:

  1. Install the required software.
  2. Connect the DAQ hardware of USB 485
  3. Confirm the connection with the MAX with TestPanel
  4. Open the VI and refer the Implement Steps


Requirements
Software
LabVIEW 2012 or compatible

Hardware
USB 485
