NI-DAQ OPC & array tags?

Hello:
I have a PC that hosts a NI-DAQ board. THe typical acquisition rate is 1kHz (1.000Hz) for the total of 8 channels. I would like to broadcast the analog reading towards other PCs. The combination of NI-DAQ and DSC could potentially do the trick but since the NI OPC cannot publish tag arrays and OPC is limited to 100 Hz (10 ms) I do not know how to do it.
Also how through the NI OPC can I parametrize the sampling, filtering and duration of the acquisition?
Thanks a lot for your inputs,
Chris

Hey,

Since you already have LabVIEW and all of its capabilities, I would consider using the DAQ VIs to setup and acquire the signals from the DAQ boards. Doing this will allow you to get the acquisition rate and anything else that you require.

While acquiring the data, you can write the data ( point by point) to a DSC memory tag which can be logged to the database. However, it may be better to perform some analysis on the acquired data and log those results instead to reduce the amount of logging necessary.

Hope that this helps,
Mike
