Angle and Strain Measurement

Hey Guys,

 

I'm a LabView newbie and want to program a LabView-VI which should write the measurement of a Heidenhaim angle measurement device and multiple strain gauge strips in one data file like this:

 

angle | strain1 | strain2 | strain3 ...

 

 

The strian gauge strips are connected to the Laptop with NI9237 modules and a NI chassis via USB. The Heidenhaim system is also connected via USB.

 

 

 

Can LabView identify the angle measurement system or do I need additional drivers?

 

I found this post (http://forums.ni.com/t5/Instrument-Control-GPIB-Serial/Heidenhain-ND-287-connect-with-VISA/td-p/2372... and tried to figure out the given example "Advanced Serial Write and Read.vi". But I would be happy if anybody has more information, examples, codes, etc.

 

 

Thanks for your help
