Create a DVM with USB-6008?

[Kimon]

Hello,

I am looking to create a basic DVM with the NI USB-6008.  All I need todo is read a Digital voltage of ~1V continuously and display it in a text box in VB.  I have looked at the NI-DAQmx Digital input example code but does not show how to convert the input data into a visual text.  I have limited experience with VB and was wondering if anyone has a simple code that can do this.

Thank You

Hello Kimon,

You can run the Visual Basic example located in the following folder:

C:\Program Files\National Instruments\NI-DAQ\Examples\Visual Basic 6.0\Analog In\Measure Voltage

When you install the MS NI-DAQmx.NET class Library, example programs of VB. NET are installed by default.

NI-DAQmx.NET Examples

You also can find detailed information in the help file located at:
Start >> Programs >> National Instruments >> NI-DAQ >> NI-DAQmx C API Visual Basic 6.0 Help

And also another useful link:

Good Luck!

Regards,

Meri
