Embedding matlab program in signalexpress

[jerryguo]

Helle Everyone,

What I'm trying to do is: use signalexpress to acquire a signal from a DAQ card and save N samples to a .txt file, and then use a program written in matlab to process the data into an image, and repeat the procedures. Basically it's like a real time image acquisition. Does anybody know how to realize this? I've heard that matlab program can be embedded into labview but I've no idea how to approach this.

Thanks in advance

One way to do this would be to create a user step with LabVIEW using LabVIEW MathScript and just copy your function in.  This would allow you to run your code in the SignalExpress environment.  You can see if you code is compatible with MathScript by checking out the online evaluation.  You can also download a demo of LabVIEW with MathScript from the same location.

If you can access your code through a DLL, you can create a user step which calls this DLL, provided the DLL calls are supported by LabVIEW. You will need LabVIEW in either case.

Let us know if you need more help or run into problems.

Thank you. Does it require the install of Matlab?

No, it does not.  It is a completely separate implementation.
