export data in usb 6009

[noe]

Hello! I've bought an 6009usb adquisition card to store data from a system and if I export data with the VI-logger program and NI-DAQmx the size of the file is very big. How can I export data in a file that its size is in the order of hundred of kbytes in an one-hour stored time?

I think this is possible with Visual asic or another programming language but if you could help me... thank you!! I wait your oppinion

Noe,

yes, it is possible. I recommend you use LabVIEW. It has several method of saving data into disk.

The recommended method will be in binary format ( because the size of the file will be the smallest ) and LabVIEW comes with a lot of examples included. You just have to take them and modify a little bit if necessary. Moreover, LabVIEW can also save data in another formats like .txt, .xls, propietary formats... For all these cases, LabVIEW includes a lot of examples.

You can test LabVIEW in the following link and even you can download a evaluation version.

I hope this helps.
