how to get multiple voltage signals from the daq

Solved!
Go to solution

Hi guys,

 

I have to run an event for children to play with different types of energy generation, so we have a wind turbine, solar panel and a generator. I have each of these wired to input ports of the USB C series DAQ, I can't seem to figure out how to get the daq to output all three voltages simultaniously, the DAQ assistant in labview will not do this, as far as I'm aware. I need all the output together so that the children can see how much the reknewables are making, and then make up the shortfall with the 'power station' generator, so I need them all running at once. I've had a look a similar problems but I can't see how they're relatable to my case.

 

I have attached the vi below, thanks for all your help.

Amy

DAQ assistant allows for multiple voltage inputs. When selecting the analog channel hold down the shift key and select as many available channels you want.

...or the CTRL key to select individual channels rather than a range!

But I still only get one data output where I need three. Is there a way to do this?
