I am trying to get my program to display a couple temperatures and I am failing hard.
I am still at a novice level in LabVIEW experience, but I know my way around it.
I would post the full .vi but there are a bunch of sub vi's and scripts that are needed to make it run.
NI-PCIe-6321 card
SCB-68A DAQ
DRSL-TC (Omega) Signal Conditioner (set to 60Hz Output, 0-10V, 300ms rate)
Type K Thermocouple
If at all possible, I would like to figure out how to configure DAQmx to accept 4-20mA, since my current signal conditioner puts out that.

6321 is a voltage input DAQ, this means it cannot measure current. On the other hand, you can convert the current into voltage using an external load resistor.

That helps m moving forward in the long run, but what about getting correct outputs on the indicators through DAQmx with voltages?

I was able to get the voltage to read, but I cannot get a clean graph to convert to.
Any help on how to do this would be much appreciated!
