Setting Specific Thermocouple Type in Block Diagram

Solved!
Go to solution

Hi all,

 

I have an example VI that I am playing with. I would like to remove the thermocouple selector on the front screen and just set the input to the DAQmx block as a K type as I only have K types. How would I do this?

Just move the enum to the block diagram (drag) to create an enum constant and set it to K type.  You can then delete your fp object.

Or simply right click on the terminal and select 'Change to Constant'.

 

You can learn a lot by right clicking on objects and viewing the options.

Yes, that too, with fewer mouse clicks.

Hi bronco,

  I am learing to read themocouple measurement also. Is it possible for you to post the subVI also so I can run it? Thanks a lot.
