Simple vb.net code for interfacing with USB-6008?

Can someone point me towards some simple vb.net code for interfacing with USB-6008?

 

I am reading in a 1-5V signal taken from a 4-20mA signal droped across a 250 ohm resistor taken from an electromag flowmeter.

 

I have been able to add the "NI DAQ Component" item and am getting my voltage input correctly, but is there a way of getting it this voltage reading in the user forum side to plot on xy-scatter graphs etc? or at least a way of getting the "DaqTask1.mxb" window/graph to apear to the user at run time? I appoligise for my lack of knolage on this but i'm very eger to learn!

 

Much thanks to anyone who can help,

PhilipL.

Hi,

 

You'll need to add reference to the National Instruments DAQmx NET library. Then follow the instructions here;

Also, there are several example projects that install with DAQmx. You should find them at
