Let me see if I have your setup pictured correctly. You have 1 PC, 1 DAQ card that is connected to the SC-2345 signal conditioning carrier. Do those modules, you have two different physical machines you want to control. Am I correct?
Do you want to have one LabVIEW application controlling both machines independently? Or two different LabVIEW applications each controlling one machine?
Your one constraint is that since there is only one DAQ card, all DAQ functions have to be handled at a single point of code otherwise you'll get errors about resource conflicts. In other words, you can't have two separate programs eaching trying to work with a single DAQ card.
So you can have a single point of interface with the DAQ card and use architectures such as Producer/Consumer to pass messages back and forth from your other parts of the code. The other parts of the code can be two independent loops that handle the machine control logic for each machine.
The easiest to program would be to have on application that handles both machines. It would have 3 loops, two loops where each loop is for logic for each machine, and one loop that handles the DAQ communication.
If you want to have two separate applications, you can do that as well where each application handles the machine logic and a third background application handles the DAQ communication. It just needs a little bit more sophisticated communication scheme to pass data between the different applications.
