How can i display 7 segment dispay on front panel using any kind of input

[Bhandi]

Hi,

I need help..!! I need to dispay the numeric data in 7 segment format. Is it possible to do in labview?

Search on "seven segment font" to see where others have acked the same thing and learned how to do this using the right font.

you need to display the number onto a 7 segment display?

i think you would need sometype of microcontroller board like the AVR or the aurdino. and use the visa usb port to display out into the 7 segment display.

i am new to this too. but that's what i would do.

i hope someone with more expertise can  give better advice.

Arduino and 7 Segment LED

7 Segment LED

The seven segment display is a pretty simple device.  Its actually just 7 LEDs (8 really including the decimal point) arranged so different combinations can be used to make numerical digits.  This tutorial will show you how to wire one up and drive it with an Arduino.

Or use a DAQ card, 4 digital output lines and a 7447 or 7448 🙂

wouldn't the DAQ card cost more?

when i was going to school, it was tough because most labview cards are really expensive. so i went with the arduino board to learn due to cost.

how could you connect labview to arduino using four seven segment display?

thanks 🙂

You need USB interface for that
