Acquiring data from Force Transducer with a one target sine wave profile along with acquisition in same graph when acquisition is carried on.

[Taraq]

I want to make a program which acquires data of Force Transducer all the 6-axis with a one Sine wave as target wave profile in the same graph acquisition of the data would be done through PCMCIA card 6036E for ATI Force Transducer.

1) For this program I have made a program through using Traditional Data Acquisition and I think problem of acquisition is solved for single axis but when I tried to introduce SIne wave that is my target wave profile in the same graph I am not able to control the speed or I am not able to control rate at which it is moving and if I apply more delay it creates problem of buffer. Though I am trying to make it as circular buffer but through they delay it is not coming proper. Right now I have program ready for single axis I want to make it for 6-axis and data for all 6-axis should be there.

2) As soon Data acquisition starts Triggering should starts and as soon it stops it should stop. It means that when we start this program the starting point, the ending point and Min & Max of this Sine wave which a target wave Profile should be known to us in data but must not be watched on graph. Even if it is seen on graph is okay but preference is not to be seen.

I know it is too much to ask for but I really want this done as this is my Master Project and I am new I have done some projects on LabView but none of them was so big. So even If I get really good inputs from all of you guys I will be very thankful to you. As I am new here if I did commit any mistake in writing I am sorry for that. I open to your all suggestion.

Hi Taraq,

I'm not sure if I got you right, do you want to display six plots in a graph? Or do you have problems displaying your acquired data in a graph?

If it's the last one you can have a look at the LabVIEW examples (Help -> Find examples) Browse to Hardware I/O -> DAQmx -> Analog Measurement -> Voltage and look for an example called Cont Acq&Graph Voltage-Int Clk.vi. Enter all six channels to Physical Channels and run the example.

Kind regards

Carsten

Thanks for replying.

You got it right but the problem is that I have to also show Sine wave as target wave in the same graph where i am going to show acquired graph and another problem is I am using Traditional DAQ  as I am using PCMCIA card 6036E so cant use DAQmx as far as I know.
