Measures temperature using a type K thermocouple Displays the temperature with an appropriate display, on the LabVIEW front panel Shows the temperature on a physical analog display (which takes 0-5V input) that is proportional to the temperature range you deem appropriate Log time, temperature, and output voltage to a measurement file at a rate of 0.1Hz

Great Homework Problem. Talk with your classmates, consult your Class Notes, review the material you've been taught, try doing this yourself, and post the VI (not a picture, the actual VI) here if you get stuck.

I'm not sure where to go from here. We are not actually hooking this us to the DAQ.

Could you save that to an earlier version of LabVIEW so that is possible for people without 2015 to view it?
And what do you mean you are not hooking it up to a DAQ? How are you intending to read the voltage generated from the thermocouple if you dont have any DAQ connections?
How are you looking at performing the scaling of the output to get temperature corresponding to the voltage input? You should be able to use either a direct mathematical conversion or a lookup table. Depending on your temperature range and accuracy needs a lookup table would probably be easier.

File>> Create Project select Continuous Measurement and Logging (NI-DAQmx)
That should get you started very well
