Ohm's law says V=IR. Voltage = current times resistance. If you have a voltage measurement across a known resistor, you can calculate current. I=V/R. To measure current with your DAQ board, you need to put a known value resistor in the circuit (the shunt resistor I mentioned) in series and then measure the voltage drop across it with the DAQ board. When you only know one variable like voltage, you cannot determine current without knowing the resistance and you can't calculate resistance from a coltage reading without knowing the current. This is pretty basic stuff. What exactly are you having trouble understanding?
