Monitoring temperature from NI real-time

[jruhland]

I'm trying to access my sbRIO-9651's onboard temperature sensors from a C program running in NI real-time linux on the RIO.

The demo temperature monitoring vi uses the NI System Configuration API to access the data.

Is there some way to do this from the linux file system or though API calls?

I haven't found anything about them in /sys. Are they I2C devices? At least one of them is internal to the processor & FPGA.

Perhaps this will help you?

Download of the API is here:
