Multi Channel USB

I would like to download data logs from 4 USB devices simultaneously using LabView. Does NI make a USB device similar to the 4 channel RS323 serial communication products? I have not been able to locate one.

 

Thanks

 

Kevin

Not that I have ever seen.

 

But does it have to be from NI?

 

There are lots of manufacturers out there.

 

Here is one device:  https://www.amazon.com/StarTech-ICUSB2324-RS232-Serial-Adapter/dp/B000YB0NQG

 

I've used Startech stuff before without issues.  But I'm not making any particular recommendations on any specific devices.

We use these 8 port hubs in the lab and they work great.  We have had a couple ports die but I think that might have been due to the hardware plugged into them more than anything.  They show up in Windows as normal COM ports, and they even work plugged into a real-time cDAQ device running RT Linux without anything extra work.
