Analog input from IN USB-6008

[bolt]

I want to bring an analog signal from a NI USB-6008 into a .vi project. This is for a class assignment. How can I do this. I am monitoring the signal on the Explorer graph.

What range of analog signal are you trying to bring in? And what problems are you having? I have a USB 6008

I am using the 5VDC supply and a pot and bringing  it in on analog input 0. I can see the signal on the Measurement and Automation Explorer. I want to use the analog signal to simulate a field signal on a .vi project I am doing for a class.

You need to use the DAQmx functions.  Search the example finder for examples.

Well, you are in luck, reading a 5V anlog in from a POT is something the limited capability  6008 is really good for. What part of this are you stuck at?
