How do I send a digital output using labview?

[ISUCHEM]

I am trying to send a 5 volt digital signal to an injector from my labview program and don't seem to be getting any voltage from the pins in my E series board.

I don't know what a E series board is, but Digital I/O boards typically default to all input on power-up. Have you configured the byte you're using as an output?

A simple way to do this in LabVIEW is to use the Write to Digital Line VI within the Data Acquisition >> Digital I/O subpalette.

For most E Series devices, there is one port consisting of 8 digital lines. To output a 5 V TTL signal on digital line 0, use this VI and set the device number, digital channel to 0, line to 0, and line state to True. The device number can be found by looking within Measurement and Automation Explorer (MAX) and expanding devices and interfaces. The device number will show up by the device.

With regards to connections, you would want to connect to DIO0(pin 52) and DGND(pin 53). The pin-out of the device can be found in the user manual within chapter 4. I hope this helps.
