How to handle large amount of data with NI-6229?

All

 

I am currently working with a NI-6229 OEM. I want to read a data stream of 2Mbit/s during 1 minute, so in total 120Mbit of data.

 

I have created a digital channel (DAQmxCreateDIChan). Can this channel cope with this large amount of data? If not, how do I cope with this?

 

For the initialisation of this channel (DAQmxCreateDIChan), it requests the number of samples to be read in. If I tried with 120Mbit, but then I get an error -50352. It is also impossible for Matlab to create such large array.

 

Is it possible to read out this channel during the datastream? So that I do not need to handle large data arrays.

 

Kind regards,

 

Kristof

Hello Kristof,

 

Are you using the NI USB-6229 OEM?

In which language are you currently programming? (LabVIEW, C, Matlab, ...)

Is it possible to provide the code you're currently using to be able to see what is exactly happening in there?

 

Kind Regards,
