Scaling in the Continuous Measurement and Logging (NI-DAQmx) Template

[ben93]

Hello,

I have been successful in reading the analog input of my NI USB 6210 using the provided Continuous Measurement and Logging (NI-DAQmx) Template. However, I need to convert the voltage signals to pressure.

How would I modify the template to accomplish this? I read about DAQmx Create Scale.vi and creating scales in MAX, but I am unsure where/how to apply them to the template.

Much thanks,

Ben

In the Acquisition Message Loop VI is a case for Start Idle.  In there is where the DAQ task is initialized.  So in those two VIs is where you need to add the code to create the scales and apply them to your analog inputs.
