Pinout 9237

[Roel__]

Hello all,

A strain gauge is connected to the NI-9237 using RJ45.

Then the 9237 is connected to NI cDAQ-9171, this is connected to a PC.

It works as expected by using NI software (NI MAX).

However, I would like to use it with Matlab Simulink RealTime.

For this an analog signal is needed.

So the question is the following:

1. Is the D-sub pinout for the NI-9237 given somewhere?

2. Is this pinout digital, or is it an analog signal (and could this be used by manually changing an adaptor?)

Thanks for your time!

That pinout is documented in the C Module Development Kit which is an NI product with a considerable price and also requires to execute an agreement between the purchaser and NI, that also contains some non-disclosure agreement.

But this is a digital communication link based on I2C and therefore won’t help you much.

What prevents you from accessing the DAQmx API for which Matlab even has some libraries?
