Monitoring with dual-channel i/o modules.

how can I read datas from a dual-channel i/o modules?
i have the FP-DI-DC, FP--DI-AC120, FP-DI-AC240 discret input modules, but their values are bolean. i need reading the input signals from my LabVIEW program, but now i only can read the bolean values. how can I read the input signals intead of reading the bolean values?

Omar,

What sort of data do you want from the input signals?

The dual channel modules that you have chosen are all Discrete input modules, thus they tell you when the input voltage is above or below some threshold value. That means that they tell you if the channel is ON or OFF, which is best represented as a boolean value. If you want to know what the voltage is, you need to use Analog Input type modules, which digitize the value of a signal.
