Hello DAQ friends,
I have a complex programming project for which I am seeking guidance. I have a good idea of what needs to be done, and have taken I stab in the attached VI. However, I have no experience with DIO, ergo I'm not confident in what I've done! The target system is physically removed from me, so my hope is I can obtain some corrections and advice from the forum on the attached before visiting the production system. Right now, I'm simulating my PXI-6259 offsite with MAX. Any advice/comments/opinions would be greatly appreciated!
Sincerely,
Zach
The task at hand = transfer a text string to an adjacent DSP system via 8 digital output lines.
The requirements are:
1. convert each character to an 8bit binary array under ascii standards
2. write the 8bit array to daqmx digital output lines.
3. read the DSP system's busy status via daqmx digital input, idle(TTL low) or busy(TTL high)
4. wait until the DSP is idle
5. generate a 0.0003 sec TTL pulse to "lock" the 8bits via separate daqmx digital output line.
6. reiterate until the whole string has been sent
All told I have 8 DO lines for bit codes, one DI line for DSP status, and one DO line for the 0.0003 strobe(lock) pulse.
Solved! Go to Solution.
