I have a cRIO chassis with 9237 bridge amplifier modules and would like to use the TED feature of my transducers. I know the module itself supports TEDS but is this functionality incorporated into
the new scan engine?
Thanks

Hi Sachsm,
Currently, there is no support for TEDs with the CompactRIO Scan Interface. However, you should be able to write an application that will allow you to get to your desired TEDs information by compiling two biftfiles, one that communicates to the modules using the TEDs interface that is supported with the LabVIEW FPGA Host interface functions, and another that then just communicates to Modules through the Scan Interface.
After the TEDs information was read from the first bitfile, then you could use this information to calibrate the data used for the sensor.
Let me know if you would like me to explain a little bit further or if you think the solution would work for you.
Thanks,
