Can I use the Analog Trigger Event component in Msrment studio with 6023E DAQ

[MattGi]

I am using a 6023E DAQ Card on WinXP. I am trying to setup something where I don't have to pull the channel for a J Thermocouple. Instead I would like to use the AnalogTriggerEvent to just monitor the J Thermo in the background. Does this component do this and how is it setup?

Matt,

The AnalogTriggerEvent may be the event you want to use, but it sounds like the AlarmEvent may better fit your application. With the AlarmEvent, you can specify both a high limit and a low limit. Events are fired when the specified channel exceeds the high limit, returns back from beyond the high limit, exceeds the low limit, or returns back from beyond the low limit. You can choose which events to monitor. Below, I have included a link to a document detailing the use of DAQ Events in various programming environments:

Good luck with your application.
