sound and vibration assistant. Output to speaker

[Mike_Weber]

I'm new to the Sound and Vibration Assistant and need to get monitored sound from a 4722 board to the computers speaker.  I can capture the data and display it however I want but can't seem to find a way to get the noise to the speakers.  Thanks for any help

Hi Mike-

     Unfortunately, the Sound and Vibration Assistant does not have a built-in way to route your input signal to your speakers.

     However, if you have LabVIEW, you may be able to add a step to run a LabVIEW VI that outputs a sound file to your computer speakers (or external speakers).  You would need to write a LabVIEW program that either acquires a signal or loads a saved signal file then outputs that signal to your speakers.  You would most likely use the Play Waveform Express VI from the Express»Output palette on the block diagram.  After you have written this program, you would add a step in the Sound and Vibration Assistant using Add Step»Run LabVIEW VI.

     I hope this helps.  Best of luck with your application!

Thanks, I do have Labview and figured I could do it that way but was just looking for an easy way I might have overlooked.  I hate having to use the LabView compiling and distribution processes.  I just don't get along with them well.  Guess I'm just missing too much background but they seem awfully complex to me.  Thanks again.
