Hello,
I am using CRio 9073 with cRio9205 (AI channel) in scan mode with shared variables
When I import the shared variables corresponding to the AI channels on the diagramm, they are represented in DBL (8bytes). I cannot arrive to change the type.
I would like to recover the data measurements in raw format on 2 bytes (I16) since the resolution of the ADC is 16 bits to reduce the size of data on target. I store data on target, then transfer the data on host pc and convert the raw value (integer value between 0 and 2^16 - 1) regarding the range selected (10V, 200mV...). Is it possible?
On CRio 9073, there is only 128 MB of memory and I have checked only about 80 MB are available to store data measurements after installing the driver NICrio on the target.
To store data, I have use tdms and remarks the size grows much after a large number of writing. I think to set the NI_MinimumBufferSize and use defrag during acquisition. When the size of file is large, does defrag take a long time?
Thanks.
