Hello bhooks,
I would highly reccomend that you avoid using the Getting Started with
SCXI 153x VI as it is written in Traditional DAQ. There is a buch
better VI written using DAQmx that can be found in the NI Example
Finder. There are 2 ways to open up the NI Example Finder:
1) On the LabVIEW startup screen select the down arrow next to the "Open" button and select "Examples..."
2) If you have a VI open, go to the Menu Bar and select Help>>Find Examples...
Once the Example Finder is open, click on the Search tab. Type in
"1530" as your keyword and then double-click on "1530" when it appears
in the "Double-click keyword(s)" box. There should be an example
in the examples box called "Cont Acq Accel Samples-Int Clk-Analog
Start-SCXI 153x.vi". Double-click on it to open it.
Alternatively, you can find this example at the following file path:
C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 7.1\examples\DAQmx\Analog In\Measure Acceleration.llb
Once this is open you can find instructions by turning on Context Help
and hovering over the icon of the VI in the upper right-hand corner OR
you can go to the Menu Bar and select File>>VI Properties.
When the VI Properties window pops up, select "Documentation" for the
category. The Example Finder will also have these instructions in
the Information Box when you select the example.
I hope this helps!
