USB-6259 How to output two +5v dc

USB-6259 How to output two +5v dc

‎11-18-2014 05:47 AM

Hi all,

 

I am using the NI USB 6259. I am wanting to use labview for data aquisition from 2 potentiometers. Each potentiometer needs +5V dc input however the USB 6259 only has one +5 V DC pin. Is there a way of outputing +5V from another pin?

 

Sorry I am very new to Labview.

 

Thanks.

The 5V output for that board can supposedly handle 1A.  So why couldn't you just connect both potentiometers to the same +5V?
