9611 Analog Input Measurement

Hi,

 

I am using a SBRIO 9611 for reading current drawn by a motor. I have a shunt on the gnd line and measure the voltage drop across it and convert that into my current readings. The issue I am having is, from the FPGA I am sending the data to host VI as FXP. I need to convert this data into DBL. what is the best way to do that. can I just use the fucntion "convert into DBL" or I need to do something else. Please advise.

 

Thanks,

 

Mudda.

Mudda,

 

Yes, you can just use the 'to double precision float.vi' to convert to your data type. This is the preferred method over using coercion dot.
