ramp and soak using labview

[Sulekha Chattopadhyay]

hi,
i need to ramp temperature at a rate of 1C/min.
i have thermocouple connected to a block whose temp i need to
increase. This block is resistively heated using a power supply. The
power supply accepts 0-10 V dc input and gives 0-25 amps output.
this is controlled using daq cards from NI. Can some give me some
clues on how i can do this ramping in labview.

thanks in advance,
sulekha

I wrote a timing toolkit that includes a ramp and soak example VI. You can
download it at:
